	USATODAY.com - How they run the family business
		But the similarities between the leaders of our game and the fictional characters on the blockbuster TV series are many and not necessarily flattering.
		To baseball's bosses, umps are like the guys who run little family businesses in the neighborhood.
		But umpiring is just a small piece of the operation for whatever you want to call our little baseball family.

	Baseball Toaster : Mike's Baseball Rants
		Trammell was the MVP of the 1984 World Series and in my mind should have been the AL MVP of the 1987 season, but finished a close second to George Bell.
		Amazingly the White Sox came out of nowhere to ride an up-and-down season (or rather up-up-up-down-and-up season) all the way to a World Series victory, their first championship victory since Julio Franco was a rookie or 1917, whichever was later.
		He played two years in the Negro Leagues (46-47), was one of the first wave of black players to player in the Majors (Indians, 1949), was the first black Latino to play in the Majors, and the first black man period to play for either Chicago team (1951).

	Nick Cannon
		This path culminated in the creation of The Nick Cannon Show, featuring Cannon "taking over" real-life situations such as a family dinner, a baseball game or lunchtime at a high school cafeteria.

		The soundtrack, on Jive Records, includes Nick Cannon's "I'm Scared of You." He also made a cameo appearance as an autopsy agent in the blockbuster feature film "Men In Black 2."

	World Series : A Comprehensive History of the World Series by Baseball Almanac
		Every sport has their pinnacle trophy, but none is as coveted as baseball's World Series; a best of seven contest that celebrates our national pastime.

	Baseball Toaster : Cub Town : May 2005
		While the series win against the Rockies that followed might have helped salve their wounds, losing two consecutive games to the Cubs during their final at bat couldn't have been pleasant.
		Seriously, I think our best chances are on the bookends and especially the Sunday game when our young phenom Francis takes the hill.

	Baseball Toaster : Cub Town
		The Cubs could actually win a series this afternoon, which would be quite the switcheroo.
		Off to Florida tonight, and a decent chance to win the second of their last three series.
		Add in the Cubs' opportunity to gain confidence and solidify their momentum over the next couple of days against one of the few teams in either league demonstrably worst than they are, and any hot-streak's family tree pointing to a Saturday afternoon right-cross as its progenitor smacks of lazy, post hoc reasoning.

	Encyclopedia article on New York Yankees [EncycloZine]
		In the 2004 American League Championship Series against the Red Sox, the Yankees became the first team in professional baseball history, and only the third team in North American pro sports history, to lose a best of 7 series after taking a 3-0 series lead.
		The loss in the 2001 World Series effectively marked the end of the 1990s Yankee dynasty, as lynchpin players began to retire, not re-signed, or traded.
		The Yankees won the day, driving a stake through the hearts of their rivals' fans when Bucky Dent drove a game-winning home run over the "Green Monster," one of several emotional moments in the team's history that had Red Sox fans wondering if their team was under some kind of a curse.

	Carlton Fisk BaseballLibrary.com
		One of the AL's premier catchers for almost two decades, Carlton Fisk overcame a series of serious injuries early in his career to establish himself as a marvel of durability at baseball's most taxing position.
		In game 1, Yankee veteran Enos Slaughter belts a pair of homers: at age 43, he is the oldest player this century to accomplish the feat.
		Fisk's left knee injury is so serious he will not return to action this year, and, with a broken arm sustained in next year's spring training, will not play until June 1975.

		In the 1995 World Series while playing for the Indians, Lofton faced Maddux in this game and this game, and in the 2003 Division Series he faced Maddux in this game while a member of the Cubs.
		It's a chance to keep the road trip going well, and since the following series is against a Cardinal team that's likely to be out for blood, it's all the more important to take the series.
		It's also a key game in this series, since tomorrow night features Sean Marshall against the Dodgers' best starter thus far, Brad Penny, which figures to be a tough one for the Cubs to pull out.

		If you ask me, it's not Sutter or Rice that should be kept out, but a whole spate of players here in the 90s, such as Palmeiro.

		One of my earliest baseball memories is of watching Reggie Jackson hitting his three homers in Game 6 of the 1977 World Series.
		A series win wouldn't heal this year's wounds, but it could act as a welcome dose of morphine as we lie on the season's death bed.
		My wife enjoys going to see live baseball, but it would be stretch to call her a "baseball fan." This, however, does not stop her from having opinions about the game, and one of my personal favorites is her take on pitchers and hitting.

		All I know is, the White Sox are in the World Series, and while I'd like to be happy for them and their fans, I simply can't be.
		More when I've got it, and if all goes according to plan, next week should begin the Assuming the Position series where I'll break down the year that was and the possibilities for the year that will be on a position by position basis.
		For example, if someone from outside Chicago was listening to a Cub broadcast during the year they'd likely get the idea from the preponderance of Old Style adverts that this is a beer obsessed fan base, drunkards all, hopelessly addicted to lousy baseball and even lousier brew.

		The series is safely in hand, so a lot of today's game is about evaluating the current utility of Angel Guzman.
		He's been very impressive thus far in the series, hitting nearly everything square, and going 0 fer last night in great part due to the whims of weather.
		He couldn't have a better situation for his first Major League start, going against what is essentially a minor league lineup, so while results are obviously important, pay attention to how he's getting them.

		The series is safely in hand, so a lot of today's game is about evaluating the current utility of Angel Guzman.
		That said, had the Cubs lost the game, particularly if they'd gone down by a single run, Jones would have been the goat, deserving or not, simply by virtue of having made the most obvious mistake and already being the fans' designated whipping boy.
		I'm not sure if he's trying to do too much, his timing's off, he's not seeing the ball well, or some combination of those and other factors, but as we've seen in the last few games, with the offense configured as it is, his bat is critical.
