Tigers 8, White Sox 6
This morning, Team Baseball woke and drove to U.S. Cellular Field and the matinee between the Detroit Tigers and the Chicago White Sox. The Tigers surprised the South Side lads with timely hitting and good defense in route to an 8-6 victory. The Sox had a chance to tie the game in the ninth, however could not bridge the gap before the Tigers had out number three (no sportswriting background, mind you).
The stadium itself was nicer, although there was a problem on and off through the game with the sound system for our section in the stadium. We sat on the last row of the lower level in section 128 and could not hear the public address announcer at times due to a short in the speaker, or the wiring. Other than that, I thought the park was fairly nice. The Sox has put the sponsorship money from U.S. Cellular to good use. There was an hour rain delay in the 4th, which made us late getting out from Chicago, so there is a change to our itinerary as a result. We will not be going to Thursday's Cardinals-Brewers game here in St Louis, however we will be going to Kansas City on Friday and Busch Stadium on Saturday for the Cardinals-Cubs and then heading to TN on Sunday.
We also drove through a nasty nasty nasty thunderstorm in Wilmington IL on the way to St Louis. Rain going sideways and lightning strikes all over the place. But we made it here without a lot of problems after that.

Diane was a no show as well...survey results were very critical of the political bent and Ed's comments about the "drunk" and "heroine" were not appreciated. So it wasn't just me.
