Two different players stole home today in two different games

The California Angels completed a three game sweep today of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The highlight was when Angels outfielder Gary Matthews, Jr. stole home. Meanwhile, in Chicago, the White Sox beat the Cubs 6-0. In the 6th inning, the White Sox were trying a suicide squeeze, but Cubs' pitcher Carlos Zambrano threw the ball away and Chris Getz scored easily. Matthews' steal was for real; Getz's was more of a squeeze bunt/wild pitch/stolen base kind of situation.

Meanwhile, according to White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen (below): "Our fans are not stupid like Cubs fans."
