Latest news and updates about the White Sox
1903 Possibly the weirdest roster snafus in a single season continue, as Harry Gleason (brother of future White Sox manager Kid Gleason) is signed by Chicago — but chooses to report to his former team, the Boston Red Sox (née Americans), instead! The comedy of outlaw-player errors began when George Davis, after having doubled his […]
While it may just be Spring Training, the White Sox can at least say they took one game from the Dodgers this year. The Good Guys took care of business in their 7-2 victory — but it may have come at a heavy price. The Sox bench came through today. Lenyn Sosa and Luisangel Acuña […]
Even as far as spring training games go, this was a pretty forgettable one for the Dodgers, coming out on the losing end of a 7-2 effort against the White Sox. After a strong start to his spring, Justin Wrobleski didn’t showcase his best stuff, laboring through a difficult outing against a White Sox lineup […]
The White Sox have the best chance of beating the Dodgers in the calendar year in today’s last Camelback Ranch duel before the prospect game next week. Seeking their first win against the Dodgers since March 8, 2025, and first Spring Training win against the reigning 2025 World Series Champions, the deck is slightly stacked […]
Both Camelback Ranch co-tenants face off on Saturday afternoon, with the Dodgers as the road team against the White Sox. Non-roster invitee Zyhir Hope, a consensus top-100 prospect, leads the Dodgers with 19 games played this spring, missing only one day thus far. On Saturday, he makes his first start this spring, in left field. […]
Justin Wrobleski and the Dodgers host the White Sox at Camelback Ranch for a Saturday matchup.
1901 The White Sox welcomed another player as part of the exodus from the National League, center fielder Fielder Jones. Jones left the Brooklyn Superbas, where he was a solid regular, and blossomed into a star over eight years with the White Sox. Fielder’s 32.0 career WAR makes him the 10th-best hitter in team history, […]
Let’s just call it a technical knockout: The White Sox have reasserted their dominance over the rival Cubs. Friday’s win, their third straight this spring over the ivy bumblers and first at Camelback Ranch, was the most pedestrian of the bunch; in other words, the White Sox clobbered only two homers in this one vs. […]
The Cubs didn’t send too many regulars to Glendale to face the White Sox — Michael Busch, Miguel Amaya (back from the WBC) and Moisés Ballesteros were the only ones among 40-man roster players, and Michael Conforto and Chas McCormick among the non-roster guys trying to make the team. Plus, it was basically a bullpen […]
The second and final battle of Camelback Ranch is upon us on Saturday afternoon, with the Dodgers taking on the White Sox, this time with Chicago as the home team. Back on February 26, the Dodgers beat the White Sox 7-6 in their first meeting this spring. These two teams will meet during the regular […]

Go get ‘em, Riley.
If the Cubs are going to snap their losing streak against the White Sox, they’re going to have to do it on the road — and on a Friday the 13th on top of that. It’s a battle of Martins today, go figure: Advantage to our Davis, in every way including 2026 Cactus League performance. […]
This week, we asked you, fourth months in advance, whether you would draft UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky No. 1 overall in July. Your answer was yes, overwhelmingly. “A lot” can change over the course of spring baseball, both at the college and high school levels. But Roch sure seems to be a lock about right […]

1934 All-time White Sox playing and managing great Fielder Jones died, at age 62, in Portland. His 32.0 WAR for the club ranks 10th all-time among hitters and places him as the best center fielder in White Sox history. Jones was staggeringly good with the White Sox, never dipping below a 3.1 WAR season and […]
The White Sox and Giants kept the game low-scoring and close all evening, which in turn made it harder for me to keep my eyes open. And all for nothing, as it ended in a tie. Here is the breakdown for a mostly uneventful game: The first run Trevor McDonald has allowed this spring went […]
Happy 312 Day, Sox fans! Prior to tonight’s game, the team shared photos from the Los White Sox mural at Midway Airport, which spans 13,600 square feet. The White Sox look to bounce back after two straight losses in a rare late-night Spring Training matchup. It might be a tough hill to climb, though, as […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants will take on the visiting Chicago White Sox tonight at 6:05 p.m. PDT, with broadcasts on both NBC Sports Bay Area and KNBR. In the meantime, we are just under two weeks out from Opening Day, which is the best news I’ve heard in a long time. […]
1921 All eight Black Sox (Joe Jackson, Eddie Cicotte, Lefty Williams, Swede Risberg, Fred McMullin, Chick Gandil, Happy Felsch and even Buck Weaver) were suspended for life by commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis. None will play in the Major Leagues again. Jackson is banned for life, despite hitting .375 in the sordid 1919 World Series; Weaver […]
The White Sox dropped their second straight, this time 8-4 to the Angels. The bats showed up early, but the South Siders’ issues with stranding runners (2-for-18) continued. Their 4-0 early lead was gone in a blink, as the Halos rattled off eight straight runs and left the Sox staring at an 11-9 spring record. […]
The White Sox are back at Camelback Ranch, hoping to recover from yesterday’s beatdown by the A’s. The good news is the bats have been alive, and today’s another shot to keep the offense rolling against the Angels. First pitch at 3:05 p.m. CST. Anthony Kay gets the ball for Chicago, who’s looking to make […]
Chicago White Sox catcher Kyle Teel left Tuesday night’s World Baseball Classic tilt between Team Italy and Team USA after suffering right hamstring discomfort while running the bases. Team Italy manager Francisco Cervelli confirmed the injury as a right hamstring strain and that the team will replace Teel on the roster with Andres Annunziata. Teel […]
1930 Former White Sox coach and player in their minor league system, Bobby Winkles, was born, in Tuckerman, Ark. Winkles was signed by the White Sox out of Illinois Wesleyan University in 1951, though he would soon miss two seasons due to Korean War service. Winkles ended up playing seven minor league seasons, reaching Triple-A […]
