White Sox slide to bottom of AL Central after stellar rise
The White Sox, once World Series champions, have collapsed to the AL Central cellar with 5 weeks left in the season. Manager Ozzie Guillen expresses embarrassment while players like A.J. Pierzynski defend their effort amid a harsh bullpen, erratic offense, and a slew of injuries. Freddy Garcia, Jose Contreras, Jon Garland, and Mark Buehrle have all endured declines from their 2005-06 peaks, and injuries to Crede Podsednik Erstad Ozuna and Thome further decimate the lineup as the team fights to avoid their worst season in years.
