After watching eight innings of two-hit ball by his ace wasted and the tying and winning runs stranded in the ninth inning, manager Tony La Russa was pushed to a new depth following the White Sox’ fourth consecutive loss that put their American League playoff chances in even greater jeopardy.
“No, I just get angry,” La Russa said tersely Sunday after being asked if he was frustrated that the Diamondbacks won 3-2 to complete a three-game sweep. “I don’t like frustration, discouragement. That’s loser crap. It just seeps energy out of your body. I just get angry and want to do something about it.”
