This weekend in Chicago baseball

I had the opportunity to see both teams play this weekend and amazingly enough both on the same day! I'll start with the Cubs.

I thought that that Zambrano looked great he seemed to have his A game and went seven innings he was followed by Marmol and Wood. Soriano had one hit and as usual he was all or nothing hitting a home run. D-Lee and Aramis Ramirez are on fire. I was really inpressed with Fukudome's defense. There was a play where he one hopped the ball into Blanco's chest to hold the runner at third. Now they go to Pittsburgh for three games. And now onto

The 2005 World Champion Chicago White Sox!!!!!

We swept the Tigers! I expect the Tigers will come to life sooner or later but I will take a sweep over a division rival anytime we can get it. Buerhle looked good he seemed to have control of his pitches and made few mistakes. I was surprised by the two throwing errors by Joe Crede; I consider him one of the top five third basemen in the league. However it looked cold in Detroit and a six run sixth inning pretty much can forgive the errors and then four more in the ninth forget about it. Our offense is obviously producing Swisher went yard to start the game, AJ is on fire and Carlos Quentin looks good too. I am very happy with the off season moves of Kenny Williams they seem to be paying off so far. Now they welcome in the Twins for their home opener and I am smelling two out of three!
