Black

I was one of approximately 40,000 people who chose to wear black and go watch the White Sox play the Minnesota Twins on the last day of September. Each team was playing their 163rd game of the season to determine who would end up with the better record. Somehow I think this was because 163 is a prime number. Attending the game was great, but I was a bit worried that with a White Sox loss the night would end up feeling like a mass funeral. It ended up being a lot of things, but a funeral was not one of them. It wasn't even 'in the ballpark' of emotions that night.

As for Sunday, well . . . Matt Garza did used to be on the Twins.
