White Sox win from the Red Sox

So I watched a part of an inning lately of the Red Sox vs White Sox match. Intriguing game, but like with american football it has too many static moments imo.

So, who has been the best team in the past years?

All I know is that we won some ashes or something... Whoopie fucking do... People get cremated everyday...

Cricket is great. Its an aquired taste of course, but the recent ashes victory has done a lot for the sport in England. Only a few years ago we were the worst team in the world, and now we're only a few points behind Australia in the world rankings.

Baseball is sometimes on TV late in the UK. I understand most of the rules as I used to play baseball games on my megadrive, but I still find the sport quite dull.

It's fitting anyway, Boston wasn't even supposed to be in the playoffs if not for the Cleveland collapse. Now I hope Angel wins their series as well, haha.

I saw a few minutes of the game last night while I was at the bar having a smoke after dinner. The batter got beaned, but nobody rushed the mound so it wasn't very exciting.

Was still close in the bottom of the 9th.

As for the best team in the past years, I don't really keep up with it enough to have any idea. Aside from the Sox finally beating out the Yankees, I don't know what's been going on.
