I have been following the Chicago White Sox fortunes in this season's baseball playoffs. And it seems to me that they are destined to win. They received some fortuitous calls in their favor in the first two rounds and last night lady luck smiled on them again when one of their batters was awarded first base when the umpire ruled he had been struck on his arm. Replays showed that he had fouled off and instead of a full count, the bases were loaded. Before you knew it, the next batter had hit a Grand Slam and the Sox were ahead. Fox sports - ever mindful of the ratings - wants a game seven, but I think this series will be over in five.
Update 10/28: The White Sox proved me wrong. They wrapped it up in four.
