2011 Halfway Point

A disappointing first half of the baseball season came to an end (a few weeks back).  Hopes of a pennant chase have thus far been thwarted by an anemic offense that is threatening to break some long held records, and not the good kind.

Texas Rangers 1 0 1.000
LA Angels 2 0 1.000
Detroit Tigers 2 0 1.000

2011 Ticket Design + Other Changes

The White Sox went for a little change in their ticket design for 2011.  I’ve had season tickets since 2005 and they’ve always used basically the same, verticl layout.  This year we’ve got a nice horizontal approach, showing action shots of Matt Thornton, AJ Pierzynski, Alex Rios, Juan Pierre, Mark Buehrle, and Paul Konerko.

Other rumored changes for the upcoming season:

The TBD Sports Bar has been expanded and renamed Comiskey Grill.

The Jim Beam Club is now known as the Home Plate Club.

Connie’s Pizza is out as the official pizza, to be replaced by DiGiorno’s.  As someone who frequents the pizza stand, I’m slightly worried about this change.
