WillieHarris2 Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 so is my math corrrect, we finished 3-4 against the yankees? we'll have to make up for that in october wait so we have no more games against the yankees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxin' Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 wait so we have no more games against the yankees? Yep. We are done with them for the year. They play each AL non-division team 2 series each year, one home and one away IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Anybody watching WGN? White Sox are giving fans the opportunity to work on the field. In what is probably Rob Gallas' last PR disaster, here is what the following money gets you: $1000 - Change bases during the 5th inning $1500- - Give line up card to ump before game $5000 - batting practice on an offday and a picnic in the park. All money generated is given to White Sox charity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it's for charity. that $500 (2 @ $250) being tax deductible makes a lot of difference for me tax wise... a lot of difference and of course the grandkid is already asking me if I have tickets for this year's over night (I haven't heard if they scheduled one yet) for the great time we had, that was about the best money I ever spent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Just got home from my baseball game (we lost 23-4), and I see a White Sox winner! How do Schoeneweis look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted April 23, 2004 Author Share Posted April 23, 2004 We're 0-3 when I start Gamethreads..2 loses to NYY and the one loss last Fri at TB. Thank god I didnt start todays. Just got back from Freezin my azz off at the game -- I just missed catching the Crede Home run ball -- If you see a replay, I'm in a gray jacket, grey stocking hat, about two rows below where the ball landed. If I would have brought a glove to the game I would have caught it -- I haven't seen a replay yet so I don't know if you would even be able to see me. The Sox are 2-0 when I start Gamethreads -- I didn't read through this one, but I say BEGOOD, and his 0-3 record get demoted to the Minor League board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Honda Civic Posted April 23, 2004 Author Share Posted April 23, 2004 Hopefully they'll put Crede's homer on ESPN Motion. It wasn't on Sportcenter -- Though they did show a two out Arod error that allowed maggs to reach first, he didn't score -- In other words it didn't factor in the outcome of the game, yet it was worthy of airing.

The Critic Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 $1500- - Give line up card to ump before game ...bet Big Dusty wishes that TOCT had that promotion so he could blame that crappy double-switch/batting out of order thing the other day on someone else...

cwsox Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Oh no! I just remembered I have to go to church tonight! s***, it's from 7-9 so I'll miss most of tonight's game. It's usually advised the keep the word "church" and "s***" further away from each other in writing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Actually it's the wives idea from what I understand. Pretty cool one, IMO. And tax deductable. Either I heard the information incorrectly on WGN or Mariotti is wrong. In today's article he claims only 10% (not 100) of the money is given to charity, and batting practice is $10,000 (not 5 K) Yes, for $1,500, you can drag the infield or deliver the lineup card. For $1,000, you can change the bases. For $10,000, you can take off-day batting practice. Ten percent of proceeds will be donated to White Sox Charities. Ninety percent will be kept by the ballclub. http://www.suntimes.com/output/mariotti/cst-spt-jay23.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted it's not crystal clear, but if only 10% is going to charity that is terribly misleading... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
