Pivotal Game 5 Goes to Host White Sox, 6-2
Game 5 was big. So was Roger Diaz.

In leading Chicago to a crucial 6-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs at U.S. Cellular Field today, the Chicago starter rose to the occasion, tossing 5 good innings. Diaz threw 5.0 innings of 2-hit ball as the White Sox defended their home field to seize a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 World Series.

John Conway, who finished 3rd in the AL in slugging percentage with .620 in 2085, chipped in for Chicago with a grand slam home run in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the designated hitter had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 RBI.

"I had a good game plan," said Diaz. "I made my pitches." His manager concurred. "It was all there," Bryce Reigns said, "the velocity, the sharpness of his pitches."

The next game is set to be played for Friday, November 10th , 2090 at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
