The Chicago White Sox have 7 games left to buckle down and get to where they have planned to get since April an Opening Day. They find themselves 1 Game out of 1st Place in the AL Central for the 1st Time since July 23. With the Tigers leading the Royals in Today's Game as we go to Press 4 -0 in the Top half of he 3rd Frame the Pressure is squarely on the Chi Sox.

Now the Bad News is the Tigers get to travel to Target Field (Twins) for a 3 Piece while the Chi Sox entertain the Al Wild Card Hopeful Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays and their Grade A Starting Pitching with AL Cy Young Hopeful David Price going to the Bump in one of these Games will be a unenviable task for the Pale Hose but they have to make due.

The Pale Hose have the AL Central or no shot at the Post Season. The Rays have the AL Wild Card or no shot at the Post Season and this Series is a Must-Win every Game with Post Season Implications all over it.

September 30, 2012
TB TBD vs CWS TBD 2:10PM ET

The Rays and Pale Hose have both left Game 4 on Sunday Wide Open as they both will be looking at the Standings by then to see where they are at. The Rays have Shield sin Game 1 and the Sox have Peavy going for it to stay in the Race. The Pale Hose have the edge Saturday as they will throw Rookie LHP Chris Sale from the Bump. Look for the Rays to move up LHP David Price for Sunday if they are that #1 or #2 Wild Card Seed if they catch the O's or A's.

This is a Pivotal Series for Both with just 6-7 Games to be played until Postseason.
