The White Sox have their participation in the games played a close and constructive, as the Giants had during the entire month of September. San Francisco won the NL West last day of the season against rival San Diego.
Aaron Rowand (notes) played in two clubs to win a championship ring in the South Side of Chicago five years ago with current Giants teammate Juan Uribe (notes).

And San Francisco has not won since 1958the West New York Giants captured the franchises last World Series 1954th
Obviously, 2005 was largely based on our pitching and our defense. And I think if you watched this team this year, you'd probably say the same thing, said Rowand, one of the few veterans of the playoffs in the Giants clubhouse. Upon reaching the playoffs and everything is rising in every seat and the pressure you have something to leave (in close games). They have this experience. played a significant role in 2005 for our team, and I think that has played an important role in this season for this team.How on the comparison of the management style of Bruce Bochy and Ozzie Guillen?
Im not touching that one said Rowand with a smile.

Our plan is, it is starting tomorrow in New York, Joe Girardi said of Sabathia. Let's see how it feels tomorrow, but our plan is to want to be started in the old days of Wilson, the bullpen for several years before converting for an early season available for us.The trip.
During a bullpen session normally, I would start tomorrow, usually have 35-40 shots, and that, as cast in the level of 80 percent to 90, then at an intensity of 100 percent adrenaline would be no problem 20-70 seats Wilson said.
Wilson also had a little more insight into what happened to him in fifth game
I had a blister on my (left index) finger for the whole year, and broke the second night, he said. Good times. Blister juice on the ball. I just tried and everything went wrong.Girardi also said he would not hesitate more than Mariano Rivera (white) man or configuration Kerry Wood (white) to run in two innings. The way the Yankees best of seven series 3-2. I think that should be run like theres no tomorrow, Girardi said. Need Game 6, when six outs, we need six games. I think what we do. If you have six outputs Woody, Woody took six games. He . is worried about tomorrow, for me, that we must them.PLAYOFF VETERAN: Brad Lidge Phillies (white): hes one of the lucky few who go to the playoffs several times.

Its definitely there, said Rowand of the most memorable games of his major league career of 10 years. You do not really understand what kind of game it was for the game and immediately after the game. You you wake in the morning and this kind of access that kind of game it was.
