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 […]
The Tampa Bay Rays came into Chicago with the best record in MLB by half a game over their hosts, the White Sox. After Wednesday afternoon’s walk-off win, they surrendered that title (for now, anyways) to the South Siders. Monday night, the Rays got to starter Lance Lynn, who had probably his worst outing of […]
The White Sox came into Detroit with the largest division lead in all of Major League Baseball, and are the only team in the AL Central with a positive territory. Both of those stats improved when the Sox swept the toothless Detroit Tigers over the weekend in Motor City. In Friday’s series opener, the Sox […]
Last week, the White Sox took a look at a Twins team that was struggling and well off the pace in the AL Central, and decided to kick them while they’re down, and swept them at Sox Park. This week, the Sox kept that mojo going, taking two out of three in Minnesota. Monday’s game […]
On Friday afternoon during the opener of a doubleheader against the Kansas City Royals, Jose Abreu lay on the first base line in pain after a vicious collision with Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier. The crowd in the stands, and White Sox fans everywhere held their breath for the reigning AL MVP, having already witnessed […]
Heading into the 2021 season, the White Sox figured that their stiffest competition for AL Central supremacy was the Minnesota Twins, a franchise that has historically been a thorn in the sides of the Sox, and who won the division last year. The Twins, however, limped into Chicago for their first meeting with the newly-minted […]
After splitting a pair of games in Cincinnati in which they allowed a grand total of *checks notes* one run, the White Sox flew to Kansas City to begin an important early-season two week stretch against the then-division leading Royals and Twins. They got off to a strong start with a three-game road sweep of […]
Early in Spring Training, the White Sox bullpen playbook would be to get six solid innings from the starter, and then run Codi Heuer, Aaron Bummer and Liam Hendriks out there for the final three innings to lock down a win. For the first time I can remember this year, that worked out just the […]
After dealing with the gut punch that was Luis Robert going down with a torn hip flexor for 12-16 weeks, the White Sox marched on to Cincinnati to start a brief two-game series with the Reds. They handed the ball to Dylan Cease, fresh off his best outing in the bigs, and he somehow outdid […]
