A 37-year-old Chris Sale threw yet another gem on Wednesday as he winds down yet another Cy Young finalist-grade season in Atlanta, striking out 10 Cincinnati Reds over 5⅔ innings of one-run ball in a game the Braves won 3-2 in 11 innings. That 10th strikeout gave him 200 on the year, so he joined…

The Chicago White Sox were on the precipice of clinching a playoff spot for the first time since 2021. The Sox got down early after opener Bryan Hudson allowed four first inning runs, but were able to fight their way back into the game. Unfortunately, Maikel Garcia came through for the Royals in the bottom of the 7th vs. Hagen Smith. The Sox went down pathetically in the 8th and 9th inning.

After rallying to erase a 4-0 lead with one big wave in the third, Chase Meidroth had a golden opportunity to put the White Sox in front for the first time all night when he stood at the plate with a bases loaded and worked a 3-0 count against Seth Lugo.
Lugo got back into the count with a sinker up and in for strike one. He then threw a sinker even more up and even more in, and had Meidroth not moved, it might have hit him.
But Meidroth moved. In fact, he swung for some reason, and popped...
The Cleveland Guardians lost, 1-0, to the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday night. All the White Sox had to do was beat the Kansas City Royals to reclaim first place in the AL Central.

Laurence & Spiegs discussed the final weekend of the regular season that faces both the Cubs & White Sox.
Entering the season, the Chicago White Sox were given a 1.1 percent chance to make the playoffs by FanGraphs. Their odds of winning the AL Central were at .5 percent.

The White Sox scored 14 runs Tuesday night, so hopefully there’s still a little gas left in the tank. A little less drama on the pitching side would be nice, too. Trevor Richards and Luis Castillo combined to give up seven runs over two innings in the 14-11 victory. Yikes. That win, paired with a […]
There was a brief moment for just over two weeks in August when the Royals went 13-2 and looked like they were putting some things together. Since then, they have lost series to the Marlins, Blue Jays, Diamondbacks, Red Sox, Astros, and then got swept by the Pirates. If they lose tonight, it will be […]
Game Two. The night game of the day/night doubleheader. Dylan Cease was placed on the IL. CJ Van Eyk and Chase Lee have been added to the roster, with Jose Rodriguez being optioned. I was enjoying watch Rodriguez, so I’m sorry he’s been optioned. But I think there will be a slot for him next […]
