It's hard to imagine a period of faster change than the three years Jeff Torborg managed the White Sox. From 92 losses his first season to 94 wins the following year, challenging the eventual A.L. champion Athletics throughout the final summer at Old Comiskey Park. Now the ex-manager speaks directly to Sox Fans about this memorable period and highly unusual events leading to his ouster after the 1991 season. It's another EXCLUSIVE interview by Mark Liptak for the totally biased Sox Fans of White Sox Interactive!

May 28... A Ray of Hope
Big-Game Freddy Garcia toys with the Tampa Bay Rays for seven strong innings, while the Sox offense comes alive against David Price. Seriously, this team is the best in baseball?

Idiot umpire Joe West ejects Mark Buehrle in the third inning, but Tony Pena's work in long relief lifts the Sox to a series win in Cleveland.

The Sox score some runs early for John Danks and break an embarrassing 5-game losing streak vs. the last-place Indians.

May 14... The Downward Spiral Continues in KC
The Sox offense looks anemic against Gil Meche and his plus-8.00 ERA. Non-sensical Ozzie-ball tonight features Omar Vizquel at DH, while Mark Teahen starts at third and continues to look like a butcher.
May 9... Jenks Implodes, Sox Suffer Worst Loss of the Season
Gavin Floyd had another sub-par outing, but fortunately, so did Toronto's Rickey Romero, and the Sox took advantage! Unfortunately, Bobby Jenks snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
May 8... Peavy Polished and Paulie Powerful
Jake Peavy teased us with a perfect game going into the sixth and Paul Konerko continues to amaze as the White Sox beat the Toronto Blue Jays 7-3.
May 7... The Buck Stops Here
The White Sox fail to execute in key situations while Ozzie continues to be asleep behind. Ozzieball tonight featured three homers, but that wasn’t enough to contain John Buck’s dominance of Sox pitching.

Despite giving away the lead in the middle of the game, Scott Linebrink picks up the win as the White Sox Beat the Yankees 7-6.
