hi8is Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) A battle of two hopeful teams starts today in a pivotal series. Both are on the outside of a wild card spot and both seem to be on the rise after being in a rut. The Sox have begun to recover after a horrid stretch, winning their last three consecutive series. We sit 2.5 games away from a wild card spot. The Huston Astros on the other hand have gone 40 and 20 since May 1st. They currently sit a half a game from a wild card spot. In the White corner, likely hailing from somewhere south of the equator, we have Miguel "The Rat Dog" Gonzalez. Sporting an intimidating set of sideburns and facial scruff - this man on a mission has been brilliant and then f***ing awful in his last two starts. The offense supporting him looks to heat up as summer temperatures continue rising. Things are clicking and aside from an injury to recent call up Matt Davidson, every man 1 through 9 believes they can mash today. Spark plug Adam Eaton has recently revealed this game will be dedicated to the injured Davidson and in homage to him, every batter will either strike out or hit a home run. In the Ugly Ass Uniform corner, hailing from a brew house in Milwaukee is some poor asshole who's mainly know for hitting Stanton in the face. A team comprised of a perennial league leader in hitting, a left handed masher, a young power hitting egotistical prick, and the Alex Rodriguez of the current generation - these guys got everything necessary to bust-a-move. Will the White Sox turn their season south and smack the moon men with a 55 pound slab of raw brisket? Will The Rat Dog throw a gem or give up 16 hits? Will Tim Anderson fly into the air revealing himself as the real life Superman? Will it ever stop? Yo, I don't know - turn off the lights, and I glow. To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal... Blah blah blah... Something about a candle.... Blah blah blah... WICKED! hi8is take away - the white sox will win as this will be the third game they win and will signal their eventual record of 28 - 5 in their next 33 games. If this does not happen exactly as I foretold - then I will make a video of myself eating a 1,000 year old egg. Stop, hammer time.

hi8is Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 I'm assuming SCCWS's brain is powerful enough to read either version, so let's quit the spelling nonsense and focus on this: GO SOX! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Fireworks Man Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 1, 2016 -> 02:25 PM) SS - Anderson RF - Eaton 1B - Abreu DH - Frazier 2B - Lawrie C - Avila LF - Garcia 3B - Saladino CF - Shuck Why is Abreu in the field? They should DH him to rest his chronically sore feet plus put the superior defensive player, Frazier, at 1B. And I don't care if Abreu says he doesn't like to DH. That's all he's good for.
