Just a rather awful sports year for myself. Most of the teams I legit hate are fucking winning it all in every sport. But you know what? At least I'm not THIS GUY (in the picture above). YES.

Trailing the Los Angeles Dodgers two games to one, Chicago White Sox manager Al Lopez called upon his Game One starter, Early Wynn, for Game Four. He thus again bypassed his long-time ace Billy Pierce to bring Wynn back on three days rest. Pitching on three days rest was no big deal in those days, though, and Lopez had limited Wynn to seven (shutout) innings in the Game One rout of the Dodgers. Walter...
