BTW, Workman's #44 was retired years ago at Syracuse University, a college near where I live. That number was worn by both Jim Brown and Ernie Davis when they played at SU.
Another reason the SOX are off to such a slow start this season as compared to last season. Last season the opponents made many more errors playing the SOX and, like tonight, the SOX seemed to take advantage of each and every one.
5 ways a player can reach 1st base without hitting the ball:
1)WALK
2)HIT BY PITCH
3)SWING AND MISS AT 3rd STRIKE AND PITCH GETS BY CATCHER
4)CATCHER'S INTERFERENCE
5)PINCH RUNNER
