Thomas doesn’t sugarcoat disdain for PEDs

Championship memories: Joe Crede doesn’t think he will swing a bat again because of the lingering back problems that ended his promising career in 2009, but his memory served him well when he and former teammates Aaron Rowand, Jermaine Dye and Paul Konerko reminisced about the Sox’s 2005 World Series champion team.

Rowand said the team bonded quickly, and he shared a story about a fishing trip with Crede and A.J. Pierzynski in which a prank led to someone finding fishing bait in their dress shoes.

Dye, who got the game-winning hit in the fourth and decisive World Series game at Houston, said he still owns the car he received for winning the World Series most valuable player award.

“I can’t get rid of it,” said Dye, adding that the car has only 10,000 miles on it.
