White Sox Can't Pull Trigger (Again)

Butkus D. Dogg here.  Usually I only do football predictions, but the bald guy is so mad right now, he can't write, so he asked me to fill in.

Boy what a tough night for the White Sox and for me and the fat dog..  First, Edwin Jackson had nothing tonight.  Despite that, he battled his butt off for six innings, giving the White Sox every opportunity to win.  After falling behind 2-0 in the first, Jackson had his dog cookies saved by a great play at second in the first and a great play in right to end the second. The Sox came back in the bottom of the fifth on a home run by the guy the bald guy calls "The Savior."  I sure wish I had hair that good.

In the bottom of the eighth, they got the leadoff guy all the way to third, but Carlos Quentin and A.J. Pierzynski couldn't get it done and so they went to the ninth tied at 2.

In the top of the ninth, with two outs, and two strikes, Jesse Crane gave up a two run, opposite field home run.  The fat dog and dived  under the futon because we didn't want to get punted across the living room.

Then the bald guy really started to lose it.  The Tigers brought in some relief pitcher who looked like some guy from the Tuesday night beer league.  The guy had a huge gut and beer goggles.  He walked Rios to start the inning, but got Lillibridge to fly out.  Then Adam Dunn almost hit into a double play.  The bald guy says that watching Adam Dunn trying to hit a baseball is like watching Stevie Wonder trying to hit a pinata. I guess this Wonder guy sucks at baseball too. Then, the Savior guy comes up and strikes out and the fat guy pitcher starts dancing a jig and the fat dog an I dived under the futon again.

I think the bald guy is outside kicking the neighbor's dog because he can't find us.  Thank goodness.  All I know is the last time I saw him this mad, he was screaming at some people called the Fudge Packers and some guy who hurt his knee and decided not to play.  It was like being on a ship with a group of Marines.

I think the White Sox will do okay tomorrow, because the bald guy says their pitcher is someone named "Bulldog."  You can't go wrong with a name like that.

I hear the bald guy coming, so I better dive under the desk before he goes Brad Maynard on me.  This is Butkus D. Dogg signing off for now..
