Thoughts from today's game:- Tadahito Iguchi tied it up in the seventh with a grand slam. When have we seen that before? He also had a triple, so it's good to see him coming around. Not that I was doubting his crummy spring, since it's a ritual with him.
- Not coming around: Javier Vazquez. He gave up 11 hits in five innings.
- Not coming around either: Bobby Jenks. Chris Singleton said he just looks uncomfortable, and the results back him up. Let's cross our fingers that Mike MacDougal stays healthy.
- Toby Hall played first, which backs up the theory that Eduardo Perez isn't making the 25-man roster.

Tremendous spam subject line in my mailbox today: "Tristan was left holding a hand full of poo while Mane was pummeled by a basketball!" Needless to say, I'm now investing every penny I own into the Chinese version of YouTube.

Watch every Chicago reporter look up Mike Sirotka on Lexis-Nexis: Freddy Garcia
left today's Phillies game with bicep tightness after getting rocked in the first inning. What's funny is that Charlie Manuel thought something was wrong when his fastball didn't touch 88 m.p.h. and he gave up a big blast to Troy Glaus. We White Sox fans just call that
May 26.

SI.com has a poll asking you
to vote on your favorite White Sox site. From what I understand, there's a link to the vote in the actual Sports Illustrated baseball preview mag, but nowhere on the actual website, which is kind of backwards. At any rate, it includes
South Side Sox,
The Bard's Room,
White Sox Interactive, and this site. That's pretty cool of them, though I have yet to see it for myself.
