cwsox Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Thursday, January 22, 2004 WHITE SOX RELEASE FULL 2004 REGULAR-SEASON SCHEDULE; HOME GAME TIMES FEATURE 2 PM SUNDAY STARTS CHICAGO - New 2:05 p.m. start times for Sunday afternoon games at U.S. Cellular Field in 2004 headline the Chicago White Sox full regular-season schedule announced today. The White Sox open the season on a six-game road trip to Kansas City and the New York Yankees before playing their home opener on Tuesday, April 13 vs. the Royals (1:05 p.m.). Sunday afternoon games at U.S. Cellular Field will begin at 2:05 p.m. this season, with the first Sunday home game scheduled for April 25 vs. Tampa Bay. "Our fans indicated that a little later start time on Sunday would provide a real benefit to their schedules," said Rob Gallas, White Sox senior vice president of marketing and broadcasting. "Moving the games back one hour gives people additional time for their Sunday morning activities, lunch and then the trip to the ballpark." After the Central Division-rival Royals visit U.S. Cellular Field for a three-game, home-opening series (April 13-15), the Sox travel to Tampa Bay (April 16-18) for three games before returning home for a 12-game homestand against the Yankees (April 20-22), Tampa Bay (April 23-25), Cleveland (April 27-28) and Toronto (April 29-May 2). The Sox are home for 15 of 18 games from April 13-May 2 and 13 of 16 games from August 6-22. The crosstown-rival White Sox and Cubs again play home-and-home series in 2004. The Sox host the Cubs for a three-game weekend series June 25-27 (start times of 3:05 p.m., 3:05 and 2:05), and travel to Wrigley Field for a three-game series over the Fourth of July holiday weekend (July 2-4). Other than the two series with the Cubs, the Sox face National League East competition in interleague play for the second time in three years, including a series against the World Champion Florida Marlins. The Sox, who are 66-55 all-time in interleague action, are scheduled to play the following six series against N.L. foes in 2004: vs. Philadelphia (June 8-10), vs. Atlanta (June 11-13), at Florida (June 15-17), at Montreal (June 18-20), vs. the Cubs (June 25-27) and at the Cubs (July 2-4). The White Sox were 10-8 in interleague competition in 2003. The Sox are home for 13 weekends in 2004, facing Tampa Bay (April 23-25), Toronto (April 29-May 2), Minnesota (May 14-16), Anaheim (May 28-30), Atlanta (June 11-13), the Cubs (June 25-27), Seattle (July 9-11), Detroit (July 23-25), Cleveland (August 6-9), Boston (August 20-22), Seattle (September 3-5), Detroit (September 17-19) and the final regular-season home series vs. Kansas City (September 23-26). The White Sox conclude the regular season with a six-game trip to Detroit (September 27-29) and Kansas City (September 30-October 3). A complete radio and television broadcast schedule will be released when available. -MORE- White Sox 2004 Regular-Season Schedule All times Central; all game times subject to change Date Opponent Time Date Opponent Time 4/5 at Kansas City 2:10 p.m. 7/9 SEATTLE 7:05 p.m. 4/7 at Kansas City 1:10 p.m. 7/10 SEATTLE 6:05 p.m. 4/8 at NY Yankees 6:05 p.m. 7/11 SEATTLE TBA 4/9 at NY Yankees 3:05 p.m. 4/10 at NY Yankees 12:05 p.m. 7/13 ALL-STAR GAME in Houston 4/11 at NY Yankees 12:05 p.m. 4/13 KANSAS CITY 1:05 p.m. 7/15 at Oakland 9:05 p.m. 4/14 KANSAS CITY 1:05 p.m. 7/16 at Oakland 8:05 p.m. 4/15 KANSAS CITY 1:05 p.m. 7/17 at Oakland 3:05 p.m. 4/16 at Tampa Bay 6:15 p.m. 7/18 at Oakland 3:05 p.m. 4/17 at Tampa Bay 5:15 p.m. 7/19 at Texas 7:05 p.m. 4/18 at Tampa Bay 12:15 p.m. 7/20 at Texas 7:05 p.m. 4/20 NY YANKEES 7:05 p.m. 7/21 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 4/21 NY YANKEES 7:05 p.m. 7/22 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 4/22 NY YANKEES 7:05 p.m. 7/23 DETROIT 7:05 p.m. 4/23 TAMPA BAY 7:05 p.m. 7/24 DETROIT 6:05 p.m. 4/24 TAMPA BAY 1:05 p.m. 7/25 DETROIT 2:05 p.m. 4/25 TAMPA BAY 2:05 p.m. 7/26 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 4/27 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 7/27 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 4/28 CLEVELAND 1:05 p.m. 7/28 MINNESOTA 1:05 p.m. 4/29 TORONTO 7:05 p.m. 7/29 at Detroit 12:05 p.m. 4/30 TORONTO 7:05 p.m. 7/30 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 5/1 TORONTO 6:05 p.m. 7/31 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 5/2 TORONTO 2:05 p.m. 8/1 at Detroit 12:05 p.m. 5/3 at Baltimore 6:05 p.m. 8/3 at Kansas City 7:10 p.m. 5/4 at Baltimore 6:05 p.m. 8/4 at Kansas City 7:10 p.m. 5/5 at Baltimore 6:05 p.m. 8/5 at Kansas City 7:10 p.m. 5/7 at Toronto 6:05 p.m. 8/6 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 5/8 at Toronto 12:05 p.m. 8/7 CLEVELAND 6:05 p.m. 5/9 at Toronto 12:05 p.m. 8/8 CLEVELAND 2:05 p.m. 5/11 BALTIMORE 7:05 p.m. 8/9 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 5/12 BALTIMORE 7:05 p.m. 8/10 KANSAS CITY 7:05 p.m. 5/13 BALTIMORE 1:05 p.m. 8/11 KANSAS CITY 7:05 p.m. 5/14 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 8/12 KANSAS CITY 1:05 p.m. 5/15 MINNESOTA 6:05 p.m. 8/13 at Boston 6:05 p.m. 5/16 MINNESOTA 2:05 p.m. 8/14 at Boston 6:05 p.m. 5/17 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 8/15 at Boston 1:05 p.m. 5/18 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 8/17 DETROIT 7:05 p.m. 5/19 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 8/18 DETROIT 7:05 p.m. 5/21 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 8/19 DETROIT 7:05 p.m. 5/22 at Minnesota 6:10 p.m. 8/20 BOSTON 7:05 p.m. 5/23 at Minnesota 1:10 p.m. 8/21 BOSTON 12:05 p.m. 5/24 at Minnesota 12:10 p.m. 8/22 BOSTON TBA 5/25 TEXAS 7:05 p.m. 8/23 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 5/26 TEXAS 7:05 p.m. 8/24 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 5/27 TEXAS 7:05 p.m. 8/25 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 5/28 ANAHEIM 7:05 p.m. 8/26 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 5/29 ANAHEIM 6:05 p.m. 8/27 at Cleveland 6:05 p.m. 5/30 ANAHEIM 2:05 p.m. 8/28 at Cleveland 12:05 p.m. 6/1 at Oakland 9:05 p.m. 8/29 at Cleveland 12:05 p.m. 6/2 at Oakland 2:35 p.m. 8/31 OAKLAND 7:05 p.m. 6/4 at Seattle 9:05 p.m. 9/1 OAKLAND 7:05 p.m. 6/5 at Seattle 3:05 p.m. 9/2 OAKLAND 1:05 p.m. 6/6 at Seattle 7:05 p.m. 9/3 SEATTLE 7:05 p.m. 6/8 PHILADELPHIA 7:05 p.m. 9/4 SEATTLE 6:05 p.m. 6/9 PHILADELPHIA 7:05 p.m. 9/5 SEATTLE 2:05 p.m. 6/10 PHILADELPHIA 7:05 p.m. 9/6 at Texas 1:05 p.m. 6/11 ATLANTA 7:05 p.m. 9/7 at Texas 7:05 p.m. 6/12 ATLANTA 6:05 p.m. 9/8 at Texas 7:05 p.m. 6/13 ATLANTA 2:05 p.m. 9/9 at Texas 7:05 p.m. 6/15 at Florida 6:05 p.m. 9/10 at Anaheim 9:05 p.m. 6/16 at Florida 6:05 p.m. 9/11 at Anaheim 9:05 p.m. 6/17 at Florida 6:05 p.m. 9/12 at Anaheim 3:05 p.m. 6/18 at Montreal 6:05 p.m. 9/14 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 6/19 at Montreal 6:05 p.m. 9/15 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 6/20 at Montreal 12:05 p.m. 9/16 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 6/21 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 9/17 DETROIT 7:05 p.m. 6/22 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 9/18 DETROIT 6:05 p.m. 6/23 CLEVELAND 7:05 p.m. 9/19 DETROIT 2:05 p.m. 6/24 CLEVELAND 1:05 p.m. 9/20 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 6/25 CUBS 3:05 p.m. 9/21 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 6/26 CUBS 3:05 p.m. 9/22 MINNESOTA 7:05 p.m. 6/27 CUBS 2:05 p.m. 9/23 KANSAS CITY 7:05 p.m. 6/29 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 9/24 KANSAS CITY 7:05 p.m. 6/30 at Minnesota 7:10 p.m. 9/25 KANSAS CITY TBA 7/1 at Minnesota 12:10 p.m. 9/26 KANSAS CITY 2:05 p.m. 7/2 at Cubs 1:20 p.m. 9/27 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 7/3 at Cubs 12:05 p.m. 9/28 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 7/4 at Cubs 1:20 p.m. 9/29 at Detroit 6:05 p.m. 7/6 ANAHEIM 7:05 p.m. 9/30 at Kansas City 7:10 p.m. 7/7 ANAHEIM 7:05 p.m. 10/1 at Kansas City 7:10 p.m. 7/8 ANAHEIM 1:05 p.m. 10/2 at Kansas City 6:10 p.m. 10/3 at Kansas City 1:10 p.m. -30- © 2004 Chicago White Sox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwsox Posted January 22, 2004 Author Share Posted January 22, 2004 Take vacation days. Openning day is a holiday, and should be a national holiday. I haven't missed an opening day in years however - tax season is tax season and either I get every client's stuff to the tax preparer and back and filed before 13 April or opening day will be a day trip and nothing else for for my other career, the real vocation , at least we don't open until after Easter so I won't be missing any games because of Holy Week or Easter!!!! those 2:00 Sunday games, I am not happy about - that is a 3:00 start by my time, which means I will get home one hour later and not be able to make the kennel by 8 ever again which means I don't get the dogs until Monday and have to pay a days worth of extra boarding fees every home weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot one thing!!! The fact that she is also a Sox fan, and your cuddled up together because of the cold weather! AAHHHH!
