Robin Ventura Named White Sox Manager

CHICAGO \ Former All-Star third baseman Robin Ventura is replacing the fiery Ozzie Guillen as manager of the Chicago White Sox.

The White Sox say that Ventura agreed to a multiyear deal on Thursday.

A longtime star with the White Sox, Ventura was hired by the club last June as a special adviser to director of player development Buddy Bell. Ventura is the 38th White Sox manager overall, including 17 who played for the team.

Guillen was released from his contract with one year remaining after eight seasons with the White Sox and immediately was hired by the Florida Marlins as their manager.

Ventura was a first-round draft pick of the White Sox out of Oklahoma State in 1988 and spent the first 10 seasons of his 16-year career with Chicago.

Known for his slick fielding, clutch hitting and left-handed power, Ventura also played for the New York Mets, New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers. He was six-time Gold Glove winner and an All-Star in 1992 and 2002.

Tigers beat the Yanks, 3-2, and take the series, 3-2.

Now they'll face the Rangers in the ALCS.

OUCH!! :rofl:

Brewers eliminate the D-backs with a 3-2 win.

Cardinals shut out the Phils, 1-0, and eliminate them from the playoffs.

Kind of torn about the NLCS. I guess I'll be pulling for Milwaukee because of Saito, but if the Cardinals were to win it all that would mean a ring for Rzepczynski!!

I'd like to see the Brew Crew in the World Series... Not sure who I want to represent the AL, though. :headscratch:

^^ And that's a series the TV execs were hoping for. :twisted:

:victory: :rofl: :victory: :rofl:
