Shortly after I made my first visit to Sox park back in May, I perused the schedule further to see what other games I might want to attend. I quickly discovered a Saturday evening game in Milwaukee against the Brewers to which I could easily envision family from the Green Bay area attending, and plans […]
Last night’s MLB All Star game ended like many White Sox games have in the first half of the season, with closer Liam Hendriks getting the final three outs of the American League’s 5-2 victory over the National League to earn the save. And with that, the first half ended. But before we look ahead […]

That depth will be tested right from the beginning of the season after news broke Thursday that left fielder Eloy Jimenez suffered a torn left pectoral tendon in Wednesday’s Spring Training game in Arizona. Surgery will be required […]
There are very few players in the long history of the Chicago Cubs more revered than Jake Arrieta. His 2015 season was the stuff of legends, going the second half of the season without a loss, including a no-hitter. He then took on the entire city of Pittsburgh prior to throwing a complete game shutout […]
