downstairs Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Take a look at the Sox and Cleveland schedules from here until 9/15/05. We have 17 games against sub-500 teams, and 3 against over-500 teams. Cleveland has 6 games against losing reams, and 12 against winning teams. If we can add 3-5 games to our lead, we're in line to clinch against Cleveland during our next home series with them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just talking to some friends about possible clinch dates. Although it would be nice to get it that early my guess would be the Twins home series right after that.

diehard chisox 1427 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 AS long as we clinch with enough time to rest our starters for a week or so I'm happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 We will clinch on the untelevised game vs. the Twins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 As long as we win the division, I don't care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bones Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Seriously why is there always 1 untelevised game every year. And in September against a division rival nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the People's Champ Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 I hope they clinch on the 16th, cause I'll be there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Sat Sept 17th is an interesting date. The game is not being televised because of the FOX contract with MLB. The Cub vs STL game is being televised instead. But if the Cub are hopelessly out of it by then you could see FOX switching from Cub to WSox game & maybe even use picture in picture. That would make the most sense in terms of maximizing viewers in the Chicago area. I don't think CLE will fade so easily. I think they will clinch at home vs DET. BE THERE!

kev211 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Cant Fox show one game on Fox and one on FX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Cant Fox show one game on Fox and one on FX <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They did that with playoff coverage in the past. But I don't recall them ever doing it for a regular season game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BE THERE! if we happen to have a chance to clinch that day the game will still be 11:10 but will be on tv. 2 years ago fox was going to show a 11:10 game between the twins-rangers but it didnt matter at that time. chicago can show 2 games at once since upn50 is owned by fox32. fox shows 2 games in the la market on fox11 and upn13.

Antonio Osuna Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Kansas City, by my calculations, could be eliminated as soon as tomorrow, though more likely sometime this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they clinch it on Saturday the 17th because I'll be there. The only time I've been to a Sox game was Saturday September 23rd, 2000 in the Metrodome, the day the Sox clinched the division with a Cleveland loss to Kansas City.
