Nobody expects that!

They would bring diverse elements such as fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and some nice red uniforms to the White Sox

With special guest appearance from Fr. Guido Sarducci!

Get those 2 runs back.  4 run lead with 4 innings of bullpen coming if they dont.

Yes.

[tony&rodney]

Ok, it is the White Sox but Varland just cruised through two innings in impressive fashion. 

[Parfigliano]

Excellent Varland

Luplow got a chance to face a LH reliever, a role he will see in postseason, if he makes the roster. Kirilloff and Julien got chances to face a lefty. If the Twins absolutely had to win this game, I’m pretty sure they both would have been replaced by pinch hitter.

Jax, for all  us,   

[MMMordabito]

That would happen to Jax.
