Memphis Redbirds 10, Charlotte Knights 5The Knights (44-38) faceplanted out of the gate. Dustin Harris tried to set the tone with a solo shot to open the game, but that lead was gone and fast. Mason Adams got shelled for five runs in the bottom of the first, then two more in the second, and […]
By hanging a seven spot in the third, the White Sox ended a seven-series losing streak on the road.
The White Sox used one of their trademarked crooked numbers to open up what had been tight 1-1 game and coast over the remaining two-thirds of the game. A second consecutive victory at Camden Yards locked in a series victory, which they hadn't done on the road since taking two of three in San Diego at the very beginning of May. And by closing out June with a win, they secured their second cons...
In Monday’s loss to the White Sox, it took Chicago until the 9th inning to score their eighth run of the game.

The White Sox have become legitimate contenders, making now the ideal time to pursue Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez in a franchise-altering trade.
Having crossed the midpoint of their season last week, the Chicago White Sox are looking like legitimate contenders rather than early-season flukes. The White S

Tristan Peters spent a lot of time this offseason thinking about the paltry 12 hitless at-bats he got in his major league debut with Tampa last season. He's admitted he was sweating out the final roster cuts at the end of spring camp, expecting he might start in Triple-A.
But the part of his whirlwind last three months where public defensive metrics have him as one of the best center field defenders in the sport -- fifth in Outs Above Average (OAA) and sixth in Defensive Runs Saved (DRS) amo...

BALTIMORE–What happened? The Orioles began a stretch of 15 games heading into the All-Star break last Friday. With 12 games at home, they thought they could make up ground in the American League wild-card race. Instead, they’ve lost three of four, and have fallen to eight games below .500, equaling their season low with an […]
The Orioles’ recent funk continued on Monday night as they dropped their series opener with the visiting White Sox 8-2. The Birds have now lost three in a row and five of their last six. This game was close as could be through the first seven innings. Shane Baz was wild but effective, allowing just […]
The White Sox (44-39) kicked off the road trip by stomping the Orioles, 8-2, busting a tie wide open with six runs in the final two frames. The bats got the glory late, but this was a pitchers’ duel with Sean Burke and Shane Baz trading blows. Chicago had Baz sweating early in the first […]
If baseball games were like pickle jars, Miguel Vargas could argue that he loosened it. As just before Colson Montgomery stayed on lefty Grant Wolfram's slider for a two-out go-ahead RBI double to center that put the Sox up for good, Vargas put the Orioles reliever through an 11-pitch war that ended with a routine fly out to right, but still might have strained the victor.
But still another narrative thread to the triumphant six-run outburst in the final two innings is that despite the White...

It's not quite Gavin Sheets returning to the park where his father played, but Sean Burke is sort of returning to his old stomping grounds as a University of Maryland product.
His last two outings have been stellar: 13.2 IP, 11 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 14 K, 2 HR.

The White Sox are back at it after a week that went their way, snagging four wins in six tries. Now comes the real test — a three-game set with the Orioles, then straight into Cleveland for four. The catch? The Sox are allergic to road games. Their .375 road winning percentage is dead last […]
