That was one of the funnest games to watch this year. Eloy was HUGGGEEE! Yolmer played well filling in, bottom of the line-up picking up 3-6. Bullpen rested and pitched lights out.

Fulmer and Lopez go at it tomorrow, both are 2-3 IPs though hopefully Lopez figures things out and makes some progress.

The White Sox are now 1/2 game behind Tampa for the best record in the American League.

No reason for me to take this win for granted. This was a special win. Eloy really came through. It's special to beat a guy who had a no hitter through five. Giolito did a nice job. After all those losses for so many years against the Central, it's tremendous to kick butt. Twins may have Sox number, but who cares right now? Sox won a game in which they got three hits.

Great victory. Eloy's home run was epic.

Hawk used to say, and I absolutely believed it to be true:  “You are guaranteed to win 54, you are guaranteed to lose 54, no matter what.  It’s what you do with the other 54 that matters.”.  In latter years he’d bump up the guaranteed wins and losses to 60 each, but the concept still remained. 

More importantly, what he was trying to describe what was what defined a winning ball club from a losing one, which would be how they’d fare in a game like ours tonight.  
 

Our ballclub from the last decade would have found a way to lose tonight’s game.  Winning ball clubs figure out a way to win a game like this tonight.  This club found a way to win this game, which should give us all profound hope about the next several years with this team.  
 

And yes, all this coming from the guy most critical of Jerry Reinsdorf.  He’s still the worst.
