2008 State of the Sox

Sept. 24: Twins 3, White Sox 2

If only the umpire correctly ruled Carlos Gomez out when Mark Buehrle picked him off second base.

If only Buehrle didn't have the yips in the first three inning, instead attacking the strike zone like in the last four.

If only Juan Uribe could've gotten the runner home from third with less than two outs.

If only Dewayne Wise could've come up with one measly hit with runners on base.

If only Gomez hadn't managed to run down A.J. Pierzynski's smoked liner off Joe Nathan with one out in the ninth.

If only the Sox had the same quality of at-bats off the other Twins relievers as they did off Nathan.

If only.
