Rainout tightens schedule for Guillen, White Sox

Last update: September 9, 2008 - 7:46 AM

CHICAGO - Manager Ozzie Guillen's family told him they wanted to go to New York when the White Sox play four games against the Yankees next week. That's when he was forced to confront his team's remaining schedule.

"I don't look ahead. But I did this morning because my family wants to go to New York City. It kind of bothered me. I looked at the schedule ... I started sweating," Guillen said Monday before the White Sox's game against the Toronto Blue Jays was postponed because of rain.

"I was like, 'Wow, we don't have any break,'" Guillen said. "We're not going to have any break, no matter who we face, for the last 20 games we have left."

Leading the Twins by 2 1/2 games in the AL Central, the White Sox face the Blue Jays -- winners of eight games in a row -- in a split doubleheader today.
