White Sox Minor League Update: May 19, 2026

Charlotte Knights 5, Gwinnett Stripers 4The Knights (23-23) blasted their way to an early five-run cushion, then survived a late Gwinnett rally for a close win thanks to another shutdown appearance from Ben Peoples. Jonathan Cannon turned in a solid start despite some wild command, allowing just one run over five innings while working around […]

Mariners Game #50 Preview and Discussion: 5/19/26, CWS at SEA

The Mariners defeated the White Sox yesterday thanks largely to a strong performance from Bryan Woo and just enough offense against White Sox lefty starter Noah Schultz before Colt Emerson broke the game wide open, but they’ll face another challenge today with Anthony Kay on the mound. Last time these two teams faced off, the […]

Game Thread: White Sox (24-23) at Mariners (23-26)

Now that everyone has had a day to settle, and the adrenaline from the wild swings of the Crosstown Cup’s first leg has mostly subsided, it’s time to get back to thinking about what our expectations should be for this South Side team moving forward. For the first time in however many years, I now […]

What moves should the Mariners make while Cal Raleigh is on IL?

Until last night’s win over the White Sox featuring Colt Emerson’s first MLB hit and home run, the vibes were pretty bad in Mariners-ville. And that was before Cal Raleigh hit the Injured List. As Cal himself and many others have said, “Obliques are tricky.” What should the Mariners do while Cal is out? Mitch […]

Have the White Sox suddenly become a playoff team?

As quickly as spring came and went, the White Sox leapt from horrendous to… fun? I’m not talking fun in the lovable loser type of way that the North Siders affectionately refer to their tribe, and not in the way a little league parent earnestly cheers for their kid, knowing they’re about to do a […]

For White Sox, an infamous day may become a famous one

Wow! This is being written May 18, more than a quarter of the way through the 2026 season, and the White Sox are two games over .500 for the first time since September, 2022, and better yet, they just took a series from the Evildoers of the North Side in spectacular fashion! Wow, indeed! Why […]

Today in White Sox History: May 19

1904 In front of just 1,000 fans in Washington, rookie Ed Walsh tossed his first complete game and shutout, blanking the Senators, 5-0, on just two hits. The win moved Walsh to 2-0 on the season. As the season wore on, Walsh would fill a sort of “closer” role for the White Sox, starting eight […]

Game Thread: White Sox (24-22) at Mariners (22-26)

Whew, baby! Exhale everyone, and take the remainder of this pregame to rest on the laurels of an electric Crosstown conclusion that was almost certainly the best such series from a South Side perspective since 2021’s roller coaster three-gamer at then-Guaranteed Rate Field. That one, you might remember, was also characterized by a lopsided win […]

Mariners Game #49 Preview and Discussion: 5/18/26, CWS at SEA

The Mariners played some dreadful baseball this weekend, getting swept by the Padres, and now have to face a Chicago White Sox team they just dropped a series to. My vibes, please, they are very sick. Lineups: Get called up, get to be in the lineup graphic. News: You’ve probably already seen the news about […]

White Sox Weekly: May 11 – 17, 2026

We are now in the second half of May, and the White Sox are two games better than .500. No, you did not read that wrong. No, you are not dreaming. This is real life. The South Siders have been on a journey to .500 the last few weeks, and they finally accomplished the goal […]

Today in White Sox History: May 18

1902 White Sox pitcher Nixey Callahan became the first player in MLB history to record five hits from the No. 9 spot in the batting order. The feat came in a 17-inning, 2-2 tie with St. Louis. For good measure, Callahan duplicated the feat less than one year later, in a 13-12 loss to the […]

Series Preview: Mariners (22-26) vs. White Sox (24-22)

Great news: Gavin Sheets is not (any longer) on the White Sox. He can’t hurt you anymore.  Bad news: If you’re reading this, you’re probably going to be watching some more Mariners baseball. If you told me in January that the Mariners would be one game out of the Wild Card and just two games […]

Mariners News: Colt Emerson, Brendan Donovan, and Jose Altuve

White Sox 9, Cubs 8: This space intentionally left blank

You can probably guess why the headline to this recap is what it is, because, well, there aren’t many non-profane words to describe the Cubs’ 9-8 loss to the White Sox Sunday afternoon on the South Side. Two blown three-run leads. A remarkable ninth-inning comeback. And then… well, just too many home runs served up […]

On June 9, 2008, the world’s eyes were trained on Steve Jobs as he got up on a stage to announce the release of the iPhone 3G, the first “new model year” of what we didn’t know at the time was the most important technological innovation of the 21st century. A little under three weeks […]

1912 The White Sox win their first game ever played at Fenway Park, 5-2. The matchup was the first among the early titans of the season, with the White Sox coming to Boston at 21-6 and the Red Sox in second place in the AL, at 16-8. The game didn’t turn out to look like […]

Chicago Cubs vs. Chicago White Sox preview, Sunday 5/17, 1:10 CT

Sunday notes… Cubs lineup: White Sox lineup: Colin Rea, RHP vs. Erick Fedde, RHP Colin Rea was going along pretty well and then the Braves torched him pretty good last Tuesday in Atlanta. But, I’d say Rea does well enough for a fifth starter type. Eats innings, and most of the time gives you a […]
