White Sox 8, Cubs 3: What the heck, Jameson Taillon?!?!?!?

Jameson Taillon has been a decent starting pitcher in MLB for a decade. Some years have been better than others; his last two were pretty good for the Cubs after a rough first season in Chicago in 2023. I’ve met him and he seems to be a good guy. I’m afraid Jamo might be past […]

Game Thread: Cubs (29-16) at White Sox (22-22)

Well, well, well, if it wasn’t for those meddling Chicago Cubs and our bullpen explosion, we would have come away with a victory last night. Not even a Scooby Doo reference can dull the late innings of yesterday’s ballgame; however, the Chicago White Sox have a new game in front of them this evening, with […]

Game 46: Brewers at Twins

First Pitch: 6:10 pm CDTTV: Twins.TVRadio: TIBN / WCCO 830 / The Wolf 102.9 FM / Audacy The Twins aren’t actually THAT far below .500, but when a Friday night home game feels like a road trip, “core” players are being optioned to Triple-A, and the Chicago White Sox are above you in the standings, it’s hard not […]

Chicago Cubs vs. Chicago White Sox preview, Saturday 5/16, 6:10 CT

Saturday notes… Cubs lineup: White Sox lineup: Jameson Taillon, RHP vs. Davis Martin, RHP Jameson Taillon threw well in his most recent start, Sunday at Texas, allowing only one run in 5.1 innings. Best of all, he didn’t give up a long ball in that game, just the second time this year he’s done that. […]

Today in White Sox History: May 16

1900 White Sox player-manager Dick Padden was clubbed over the head with a bat during a fight in the third inning at Detroit. The fracas started with the White Sox up, 4-2, after an uncalled balk by Chicago pitcher Chauncey Fisher that was then reversed under protest by the Tigers, scoring a run for Detroit. […]

The Cubs are walking all over the league

The Cubs drew six walks in Friday’s 10-5 win over the White Sox. That’s the 18th time this year, in 45 games (or 40 percent of games) that the Cubs have drawn at least six walks. The season high is 10, in a 7-4 win over the Phillies April 21. If you’re thinking that’s a […]

White Sox Minor League Update: May 15, 2026

Charlotte Knights 4, Norfolk Tides 1Charlotte’s four-spot in the third carried the team to another modest win. Michael Turner and LaMonte Wade Jr. hit back-to-back bombs, and Korey Lee followed up with a single that plated the remaining two runs. The Knights needed six arms to get the job done. Hagen Smith is still settling […]

White Sox show fight, break late in 10-5 loss to Cubs

What’s that viral quote referenced in Ted Lasso time and time again? “It’s the hope that kills you?” Unfortunately, White Sox fans know that all too well, although even hope has been hard to come by in recent years. In those recent years, the moment the White Sox fell behind the game was virtually over. […]

Friday notes… Cubs lineup: White Sox lineup: Edward Cabrera, RHP vs. Sean Burke, RHP Edward Cabrera was going along pretty well this year, then he got hit hard by the Rangers last Saturday. Of concern as well: After allowing no home runs in his first four starts covering 22.2 innings, he’s now served up seven […]

Today in White Sox History: May 15

1929 White Sox outfielder Art “The Great” Shires (Shires, by the way, gave himself that nickname) and manager Lena Blackburne got into a fistfight in the clubhouse over Shires choosing to wear a red felt hat during pregame warmups. Blackburne knocked Shires out cold. 1941 In a game in New York, White Sox pitcher Eddie Smith allowed a hit to Yankee great Joe […]

On The Horizon: Cubs vs. White Sox series preview

The White Sox are over .500 this late in the season for the first time since 2022. Thus, the Cubs should not underestimate them. They might not be a great team, but they are certainly improved over what they were the last couple of years. For more on the White Sox, here’s Chrystal O’Keefe, managing […]

A brief history of the Cubs/White Sox Crosstown Series

Interleague play began in 1997, so 2026 will be the 30th season of MLB teams playing outside their own “league.” In reality, Major League Baseball became one league in 1999 when the positions of league president were eliminated and the umpiring crews were merged. The National League and American League still exist, of course, but […]

How would you re-do MLB’s “rivalries?”

It’s Rivalry Weekend or whatever — 15 matchups that I guess link two teams that are supposed to be rivals together. Sometimes, this is inherently fun, like when the teams in question are basically co-located and it’s a battle-for-the-jurisdiction of sorts (Mets-Yankees, Cubs-White Sox, and I guess even Angels-Dodgers, sorta). Sometimes, it’s a bit weirder, […]

Do you consider the Pirates a rival?

Rivalry Weekend begins tonight. Some of the matchups are obvious: you needn’t ask why the Cubs and White Sox have beef with each other (not Italian beef. Disliking each other, they would not likely share a meal of that delicious Chicago specialty). Some are not: Detroit and Toronto may be close to each other, but […]

Orioles minor league recap 5/15: Starters impress on the farm

After a brief stint in the Orioles bullpen, the organization limited Gibson to 65 pitches. He threw 41 strikes. The 23-year-old allowed four hits, three walks, and struck out five. Trace Bright piggybacked Gibson and […]

Royals lose 6-2, swept by White Sox

With tonight’s 6-2 loss, the Royals were swept by the White Sox for the first time in three years. The Royals dominated the White Sox for the past couple of seasons, but that hasn’t been the case through the first seven games of 2026. The teams split their first series of the year, in Kansas […]
