Is this surge by the Chicago White Sox for real this time? Last night's win over the Seattle Mariners might well be a clear sign that it is.
After missing out on what would have been a huge sweep of the Minnesota Twins on Sunday, the White Sox hit the road for Seattle, where they bounced back last night with a 3-2 win to end the Mariners' seven-game win streak.
Time and time again this time, Chicago has made it appear that they were ready to make a charge for the AL Central, only for one loss to knock them off course.
But to fail to convert a chance for a sweep of a division rival, hit the road to face one of the hottest teams in the league, and respond with a win in your next game is a very encouraging sign if you are holding out hope for your bets on the White Sox to win the AL Central.
