Jon Lieber or Greg Maddux. Seen Jon Lieber. Jon Lieber is correct and there's a runner aboard for David in the third inning. Patrick the machine how would you like to start your third inning single missed. The machine want to signal he's gonna play it as simple play it safe. Which of these players did not hit his 400 career home run in a White Sox uniform. Andruw Jones Paul Konerko. Frank Thomas or Jim Thome. I was. That is correct Jim Thome do it with the Philadelphia Phillies so. Both -- with a runner on base to start off the inning David your second at bat. With a man on what you wanna do.

And now you have two men aboard any 21 lead we go back over to pat pat he had that runner at first what are you wanna do you hear a single for us. Looking for single practice what you want for pat and his second question is. What was the team's slogan for the 1983. White Sox. Go go. You guys Wear black when an ugly war winner die trying. Tries all and there's enough there on another note is not to -- and I guess. And receive when you're going. See winning ugly is correct winning ugly was the slogan so. Runners at first and second for Patrick where you guys are cruising here in the third inning picking up steam in the championship David what are you wanna do third swing it's going to double. Going for a double and another run on the board. Your question is your third. And here it is David which of these no hitter authors was -- sand burkes most frequent home run victim. Was it eight Tom Browning. Beat Dennis Martinez. Seat Terry Mulholland and we're deep Mike Scott. -- Tough one like he's my pinch hitter can use the cash go to the dugout looking for help. And I'm guessing cousin Mikey here cousin Mike is back right let's find out if cousin Mike can help you out. They might which -- is no hitter authors was trying -- most frequent home run that don't. It was an eight Tom Browning and beat Dennis Martinez. -- Terry Mulholland. And we're deep Mike's got. Good question Dave. Think about this one lest anyone actually. Come up with a off Valencia. To me sticking to mayor Tom Browning and Mike's gotten I don't know what what do you think in there Tom I was definitely a throughout Terry Mulholland. You know if you're field -- like I kind of was the owner initially. Has great Tom Browning. As Mike doesn't wanna take the blame that's what's going on over there accent thing. You should have taken a name that you throughout its Terry Mulholland he used to ride a lit him up. So those runners stay at first and second and a missed opportunity there we go back over -- runners at first and second the trailing in the game. 21 and strategy is huge now at this point in the game. We wanna do. -- the base is a track travel motivated photographers and well. Gonna go for the single trying to load them up and have many opportunities in your final at -- seems like a good strategy. Which of these White Sox players was known as one dog. Willie Harris play it's Johnson. Kenny Lofton Juan Pierre and love hawk Harrelson -- nicknames. Does not deal Lance Johnson. Course Lance Johnson was the ones are now you had the bases crammed win one more swing in this game. David you are down to your final swing potentially in this game. You have a 21 lead you have another run at second and maybe want it first what are you wanna deal for the double try for double just get a 31 lead. And see if it will hold up okay. Here's your question. Kerry Wood was taken fourth overall in the June 1995. Draft. Who was not taken ahead of him. Jose Cruz junior. Dan Davis and Darren Erstad. Geoff Jenkins. We don't -- Jose Cruz junior. Jose Cruz junior is your answer and it was. So those runners stay at first and second he's still have a one run lead and now it's up to the machine Patrick you have the bases loaded. You have the tying run at third you have the winning run at second base. And for the championship what would you like to do. Who better go home call for a double go big or go home he's swinging for the double. Here's your question all the marbles on one questions. Which White Sox player had the first at bat I'm Canadian soil in American League history. Was it -- chapters was at Ralph guard. Pat Kelly or Chet lemon. -- Scored the most runs in this tournament but you have to have the most runs in this game to win it. And. Because it on -- congressman associated -- today. -- Texas. You're dealing with Harry chapters. The answer is. Ralph -- Ralph -- and the bases they loaded and that means that north side wins are championship. David two runs hold up eight to one championship. He takes out the machine the most runs in -- made. But David found a way to win somehow every single time and that means. You're going home with big grand prize you're going home and autographed Jersey and a lot of -- prizes thanks for playing. You both of you congratulations. On the big championship what it turned it.
