By The Numbers: 4 - 46 - 7

Red Sox logoThis past weekend the Boston Red Sox came to Chicago to play 4 games against the White Sox. As much as there were 2 teams of players, the games were a little slanted towards the 2004 World Champions, as the BoSox beat the Pale Hose 11-3, 10-1, 14-2 and 11-1. That is a combined score of 46-7! Normally this would be the place to place an analogy referencing rain, but with the storms and flooding throughout the Midwest, I will leave that one alone.

As a native New Englander and a Red Sox fan since my youth, it was nice to see the Red Sox sweep, and nice to see people in the team’s colors getting confused on the streets of Chicago with all of the closures due to construction and filming of Batman.

Go Red Sox, and good luck against the Yankees this week!

Go Red Sox!  As a NY Mets fan I always root for any team that opposes the Evil Empire.  ...  P

Let’s try to remember what city you live in, my friend :)

Seriously, I actually respect people who stick to their teams a lot more than the ones who jump ship whenever someone else starts winning. Like you BoSox fans, we Cubs fans know what it means to stand by your team.

I predict Red Sox and Cubs in the World Series, with the Red Sox winning in 6!

I’m not sure the universe can handle that kind of strain. Still, it’s nice to be in 1st place in late August for once, instead of 1st in June.
