After a nice leisurely day, it's back to "The Cell". The remnants of All-Star week are fading: the star mowed into Center Field will be gone in a few more clippings, as well as the painted logos in front of the dugouts. The gift shops are re-stocked, this time with more White Sox trinkets instead of All-Star logo-emblazoned souvenirs.
The game, again, doesn't start well. In fact, Nate Cornejo had a no-hitter through 6 2/3 innings. Then Paul Konerko got a hit and the Sox get 7 consecutive hits. Tony Graffanino had a nice pinch-hit three-run homer. At least we got a good win out of it. The game was only 2:31 long, and the fireworks afterward weren't in the dark. I was home way before 10. I guess that happens when you don't hit.
