It took 88 long years, but the Chicago White Sox have another World Series title after finishing off the Houston Astros in a 1-0 nail-biter in Game 4 on Wednesday night. The Sox's four-game sweep brings the team its first championship since 1917. It was the third title for the White Sox, following wins in 1906 and 1917. And it was the first since "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and the "Black Sox" threw the 1919 Series against Cincinnati

yeah, well I just think the one game was longgggggg. 14 innings! My drivers ed teacher was talking about how he turned on the tv and started watching, and his wife asked him every hour or so if he was still watching! :hehe:
Otherwise I really dont know much about it.
