The Chicago White Sox and Minnesota Twins will duke it out for the American League Central division title tonight at U.S. Cellular Field. The White Sox forced Game 163 with a dramatic win over the Detroit Tigers yesterday afternoon behind an electrifying grand slam by the "Cuban Missile" Alexei Ramirez. Ramirez finished the season as the major league leader in grand slams with four and would be a slam dunk AL Rookie of the Year winner if not for Evan Longoria of Tampa Bay. The White Sox, despite losing the season series 10-8 to the Twins, won the coin flip between the teams that enabled the club to host the tie-breaker. Good thing for the Sox, too, because the Twins are just 2-7 at The Cell this season. John Danks will take the mound for the Sox against the Twins' Nick Blackburn. The winner will open a divisional series with Tampa Bay on Thursday afternoon.
Message to Terrell Owens: If anyone should be upset about ball distribution in the offense, it should be Marion Barber, who carried the ball just eight times in Sunday's loss to the Redskins. Eight! And by the way T.O., Romo threw at you 18 times in that game.
