The Cubs traveled out west to begin a series against the Mariners on Friday night. It was a back-and-forth game, but the road team finally got to see how the other half lives as they suffered a walk-off loss in extra innings. Chicago came out of the gate on fire against Emerson Hancock in the …

Meet the Mets The Mets got out to a 4-0 lead in last night’s series opener against the White Sox in Chicago. Alas, they could not hold the lead, as Sean Manaea surrendered back-t0-back-to-back homers to tie the game in the sixth inning, and Jefry Yan subsequently gave up a two-run walk-off homer to Jake […]

As the fellas discussed on Thursday's podcast , the White Sox just might have found a staying solution in right field. Braden Montgomery is holding his own as a rookie: while the offense could use some improvement, the defense already seems to be well on its way .

The 2026 Chicago White Sox have proven to be one of the most resilient teams in baseball. Not only have they far exceeded expectations in the win column, but they have built a comfortable lead in the American League Central and would enter the postseason as the No. 2 seed if the season ended today, [...]

Chicago Cubs MVP candidate Pete Crow-Armstrong has had quite the week. His heroics during the White Sox series, including a leadoff home run and a walk-off homer in the same game before leading off the following contest with another home run, made MLB history and grabbed headlines.

Jefry Yan has been burned before, yet he is back at it with his antics less than a week after the self-inflicted embarrassment. Last Saturday in New York, the 30-year-old reliever prematurely performed his strikeout celebration, which was later ruled a ball. Against the Chicago White Sox on Friday, he had a repeat performance in […]

Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears made their preseason debut last Saturday against the Cleveland Browns. While they won 34-10, he wasn’t completely happy with the team’s performance.

SEATTLE — To begin this recap of Friday night’s 6-5 Cubs 10-inning loss to the Mariners, I thought it would be appropriate to give you this fact from BCB’s JohnW53, because this is the primary reason the Cubs lost this game: The Cubs’ 1 for 16 with runners in scoring position was their worst with […]
Apart from the Chicago Bears’ joint practice with the Cincinnati Bengals, Caleb Williams has not touched the ground during the team’s preseason action. And head coach Ben Johnson couldn’t care less. He has made it clear on a recent occasion that he does not need to test Williams in preseason games to consider him ready […]

Today’s Reflections So, the White Sox have in Jose Urquidy the equivalent of the Cubs’ Javier Assad. For example: August 19th, Urquidy, planned reliever in the third inning for an opener: 6.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 8 K. June 6th, Assad, emergency reliever in the second inning for a Jameson Taillon implosion: […]

Ask ten Chicago fans to name the best Bulls players of all time and you’ll get ten different reasons. That’s what makes the franchise so appealing. The depth stretches well beyond one dynasty. From the six-championship run of the 1990s to the undervalued squads that came before and after, the Bulls have produced some of [...]

1923 In a game at Comiskey Park, White Sox pitcher Hollis “Sloppy” Thurston threw an immaculate inning of relief (striking out the side on only nine pitches) versus the Philadelphia Athletics. Thurston’s Immaculate Inning came in the 12th, mowing down Frank “Beauty” McGowan, Clarence “Chick” Galloway and Sam Hale. Thurston became the first White Sox and just […]
The Cincinnati Bengals are getting set to host the Chicago Bears for their second preseason game.

Chicago lives and dies by its sports teams. Bears Sundays. Cubs summer nights. Bulls banners hanging from the rafters like nobody’s forgotten the 90s. But there’s a newer game building its own following in the city’s parks and rec centers, and it doesn’t need a jumbotron to pull a crowd. Pickleball’s been the fastest-growing sport [...]

Players Weekend features three themes this year, celebrating off-field interests, charities and causes, and the people who helped the players succeed. The Cubs leaned into category number two tonight, giving away a game to Seattle as an act of charity. Even the 2026 Seattle Mariners can still win the occasional game they don’t deserve. It’s […]
Jake Rogers came through with incredible heroics to lead the Chicago White Sox past the New York Mets in a thrilling 6-4 victory on Friday night.

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders 5, Charlotte Knights 3 Playing against two rehabbing Yankees and their 4A team was too tall an order for the Knights, but this time the loss was on the arms. Jonathan Cannon did a fair job stretching his start as long as possible. Although he gave up two home runs, his six innings […]
For a young team like the Chicago White Sox, where most of the players haven’t experienced a playoff race much less a wining season, the dog days can be too much for some teams to handle. With plenty of time left in August, no one game gives reason to push the panic button, but the […]
