When their team gave up six runs in the top of the ninth after entering it tied with Minnesota, disgruntled White Sox fans streamed out of U.S. Cellular Field and headed home.
Whoops.
Jim Thome helped the White Sox erase a six-run deficit and make some major league history before beating Minnesota 11-10 in 13 innings Friday night. Thome's 496th career homer highlighted the unprecedented rally.
It was the first time two big league teams each scored six runs to remain tied after the ninth.
"A lot of fans are going to wake up in the morning and say 'Wow they won the game? How'd that happen?"' White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said. "Baseball is about surprise. It was a crazy game."

Ozzie was right. I have Pierzinkski in my fantasy and I thought the game was over. Then I look this morning and Pierzinski is 2 for 7, and I'm like..."What the hell? Is this the stats for the week?"
Wild.
