Needing a win to keep their season alive, the White Sox came through with an 8-2 victory over the Tigers to force a one-game playoff with the Twins on the South Side tonight.

With the bases loaded and the game tied 2-2 in the sixth, rookie Alexei Ramirez drove the first pitch from Gary Glover into the left field bleachers, and that’s the only part of the game I feel I need to address.  I’m just going to have to write another baseball recap tomorrow, so really, what’s the point?  I swear, baseball recaps are like making your bed.  You can do it for a week or so, then you start doing a shitty job, then by the end of the month you have to pick the sheets off the floor every time you go to sleep.  I need a maid to write about baseball for me.

Anyway, winner of tonight’s game gets the feared Tampa Bay Non-Devil Rays in an ALDS showdown that will begin Thursday.  Whoopty doo.
