Sox's Sale should employ lesson well
You almost never can boil a baseball season down to one game, let alone one pitch. But when I break down what happened to the White Sox down the stretch in 2012, when a potentially great season for rookie manager Robin Ventura turned into a learning...Tags: Los Angeles Times, Physical Fitness and Exercise, Carl Crawford, American League Central, Andre Ethier

Spring training: AL Central preview
Never underestimate Mike Ilitch's appetite for a championship. While the Tigers loved what they got from Anibal Sanchez a year ago, they didn't have $80 million budgeted to keep him off the free-agent market. But that's what Dave Dombrowski persuaded...

Sox hopes rest on Sale's shoulders
