My South Side heros, the Chicago White Sox, are in first place in the American League Central Division. Just a few weeks ago, three of their position players were on the injured list, and the team went on a losing streak. However, once two of those players - including all-star shortstop Tim Anderson - came back, the team went on a tear, climbing their way to the top. I watched yesterday's game on MLB.com, and it was a true nail-biter. In the top of the ninth inning, catcher Yasmani Grandal let the Kansas City Royals tie the game through a rare error, but won the game in the bottom of the inning with a walk-off home run. These games are exciting - too exciting. No matter what their record is, you always seem to be waiting for disaster to strike. No doubt a preexisting condition for Chicago baseball fans.
