Crosstown Classic Part II
Man, was the energy at the ballpark electric this weekend. Not only because it was Cubs-Sox weekend at Wrigley, but because I think people were expecting another memorable brawl.
Ding, ding, ding!
Well, no brawl in this Chicago-Chicago series rematch, but the Sox did win the series (surprise, surprise) by taking two of the three games, including the Saturday game in dramatic fashion. I mean, with the White Sox, is there any other way?
With the Cubs leading 6-5 in the 9th inning, White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski - the punchee in the first Crosstown series - landed the big blow by cranking a three-run home run off of closer Ryan Dempster. Cub fan frustrations ran high after that blast, as they showered the outfield with garbage, delaying the game for about five minutes. Ridiculous. You knew after that home run, the Cubs weren't going to come back to win that one, and Bobby Jenks came on to close out the victory for the Sox.
