All the talk about the lack of offense seems to be getting worse, as Thursday night in Chicago the Sox completed a sweep of the Indians, sending them home after an 0-6 road trip through Cincy and Chi-Town. This latest 3-1 setback was like the classic Four Tops song “It’s the Same Old Song,” - one run, two hits, and another solid wasted starting performance by the very ...

THE GOOD: If you would have offered us 3-3 on a tough two-city road trip, we would have signed for that. So, despite yesterday's awful performance, the Rays are still playing well. Being 2 back in the division is more of an indication of how well the Sox are playing right now. THE BAD: Bizarro Andy Sonnanstine .

While I’m on my road trip, however, I’ll leave you with a question. But not before I say that: A.) I’m glad Krumrie isn’t my old man; and B.)

Game one is tonight, where the Birds may have dodged a bullet, not having to face ...

It's an off-day for the Blue Jays, who open a homestand against the Angels tomorrow. Yesterday they scored all six of their runs after there were two outsin the inning. At the beginning of the trip, they couldn't have scoredsix runs if you gave them six outs in an inning. In the first 36innings of this road trip, they scored 1 (one) run.
