White Sox 2005 Rewind: Randy Johnson unlikely victim of slump-busting slugfest

You wouldn’t think that the best way to get off the schneid would be a date with a future Hall of Famer.

But that’s exactly how the White Sox broke out of a disastrous slump in the middle of an otherwise dominant 2005 season.

As explained last week during #SoxRewind, not everything was sunshine and lollipops for the White Sox on the road to their World Series championship. They went just 12-16 in August, a losing record dragged down due in large part to a seven-game losing streak against the Red Sox, Twins and Yankees.
