Out of Hope
The White Sox defeat the Indians to put Cleveland 10 1/2 games back in the division race. With Chicago's magic number over the Indians at 14, I find it tough to believe that the White Sox won't win 7 more and Cleveland won't lose seven more with about 24 to play. It was a long shot, but as long as Cleveland was gaining, you had to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Cleveland radio announcer Tom Hamilton mentioned during the game that, according to Ozzie, Joe Credi may be "done for the season."
Crede looked very stiff on Tuesday before he left the game. With the playoffs on the line, the Sox need healthy bodies in the field.
