It only took him 11 years, but Junior is back playing in October. Thanks in part to a Jim Thome home run and this play by The Kid, the Chicago White Sox defeated the Minnesota Twins, 1-0, in a single game playoff to determine the 2008 AL Central Champion.
The White Sox will now move on to face the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL Divisional Series Playoffs.
Is it too early to hope for a Crosstown Classic... a Expressway Series... a Windy City Showdown... White Sox vs. Cubs... The Kid vs. Sweet Lou...? Ehh, maybe it's just a little too soon to be punching that ticket. Still, as Andy Dufresne once wrote in a letter to his friend Red,
"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things..." -The Shawshank Redemption
So maybe I'll just cross my fingers and hope for the best anyways. As for you Kid, you just keep playing your heart out and always remember, REFUSE TO LOSE...
