The Pads taking the Cards? That would be a shocker!

Yes it would, and I don't expect it, but stranger things have happened. Short series can make or break a team, especially if the weaker team has a very strong starting 3 pitchers.

Which is why the ChiSox can still be a tough draw even without an offense.
