## Resource

After years of irrelevance, an underdog White Sox team took two of three from a high-level Cubs team. The result was a statement that this team is for real, and the south side was no longer a punchline. We’re here to tell White Sox fans it is perfectly fine to puff out your chest around town, and to look ahead to a great summer of baseball. Video version on YouTube!
