White Sox win, survive to play another day

Could it get any more exciting? Make up game and a tie breaker ? For all you soccer fans out there the White Sox last won the World Series in 2005 - the first time since the 1919 Black Sox scandal. (When they threw the series to the Reds)

The White Sox still trail the Twins by a half-game after Minnesota beat Kansas City 6-0, meaning they must play a makeup game at home Monday against Detroit.

If the White
Sox win that one, Chicago would host a tiebreaker game against the Twins on Tuesday for the division title.

"You play 161 games and today is supposed to be the last day of the year,"
Buehrle said. "Everybody is going home, a lot of people are going to the playoffs and here we got to play another game that matters for us and not for the other team."
