The White Sox should go all the way. They might have a good chance to go to the playoffs this year. All they have to do is win all of there games. There offence have get hitting games going. There defence and there pitching got to work together and make plays. Great plays. They have to repeat from last year. I am a big and I mean big White Sox fan. I seen some of there games on T.V and seen all the playoff run. The playoff were unbelievable and they did it by good offence and defence. This year, there were on and off. But, the Tigers are doing great this year and the Twins are on there A games. All the Sox got to is win, win, and win. Go Sox.
