Anyone see the Mauer commercial/parody of the old Mean Joe Greene commercial? In the tunnel, after a game, (plays out just like the Coca-Cola add) Kid hands Mauer a water (instead of a coke), Joe begins to chug it, the kid turns to leave, Joe says, Hey Kid, rips off one of his sideburns and sticks it on the kids face. Pretty funny, I have to admit.

They are a great team whose great fans deserve to see this season end on the high note of sweeping the Minnesota Twins. And I mean it. Well, the sweep part at least...

I was searching for some quotes to see how motivated the White Sox are, and this is the most I found:

Guillen plans to play some of his younger players this weekend, but not all at once. As far as he is concerned, winning is still the name of the game.

''Oh, we're going to try to win the games,'' Guillen said. ''I'm going to make the lineup the best I can. We have a couple of kids that I'm going to play, but we have the attitude that we have to win every game we can.''

I'm thinking of merging this with the Twins/Sox thread in the MLB forum. The question is, which one do you guys want it in? I prefer to keep it in the Tiger forum since the Tigers are the reason we are paying attention.

What do you guys think?

Sure sounds good to me. Putting them in here sounds good too since the thread will have as much to do with the Tigers as the Twins/Sox.

Garcia almost had 2 no-hitters in a row.
He is in as good a streak as a pitcher can be right now.

The Tigers magic number could very well be 1 by midnight.

Ok, I merged the two threads and moved it to the Tiger forum. I left a redirect in the MLB forum in case anybody goes there looking for a game thread on this.

The Hawk provides insightful commentary into the game of baseball.
Ed Farmer is one of the most colorful announcers in the business.

If I say anything like this after the series is over, I need to be checked into a mental institution.
