caulfield12 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Don't they have to win 2/3 in Wrigley in order to worry about parade routes? I hope you didn't just jinx that series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 23, 2011 -> 10:40 AM) You sir, are correct. I thought it was whoever had the lead the series before they tied won the cup? Because I thought last year the Sox just had to win Game 1 or Game 2 in the second series last year to secure the cup because even the Cubs won the other two, the last team to have a lead was the Sox, and they therefor, won? I don't know, why they wouldn't break the tiebreaker with point differential is beyond me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the players take winning this trophy all that seriously. And I know for a fact that receiving a participation trophy isn't nearly as fun or good as receiving a first place trophy.

aprec32 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 "Under the rules of the newly established BP Crosstown Cup, the two teams will continue to meet in a yearly six-game head-to-head series as they have since 1997. The team with the most wins in the yearly series will be formally awarded the rivalry’s namesake trophy. If the annual series is split 3-3, the BP Crosstown Cup will be awarded to the winner of the series’ last game." Next weeks series...........the stakes just got a whole lot bigger.

SouthSidePride05 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 If the Sox have a chance at winning the BP Cup in Game 2 or 3, will they open up the Cell so Sox fans can watch it on the jumbotron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think if Reinsdoff is willing spend the entire amount directly on the draft... Edited June 25, 2011 by thxfrthmmrs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Cubs could ever take the season series from the Sox, they would have a reason to build a trophy case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
