The Chicago White Sox had plenty of opportunities to bail out the pitching staff, and had the pitching staff been able to hold the line at any point, you might've been able to point the finger at the run production unit, rather than the run prevention one. However, the pitchers acquired before the deadline, Luis Castillo and Huascar Brazoban, continued their suboptimal production. Meanwhile, old friend Luis Robert Jr. had himself a night, hitting two home runs. Every time it appeared the White...
Luis Robert Jr. and his powerful bat got revenge against his former team in the Mets’ 10-5 win over the White Sox to even the series. The offense, with the help of Robert, jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the third inning and chased Chicago starter Luis Castillo from the game after getting his […]

The White Sox are one of the few AL teams to beat as the home stretch of baseball approaches, and a lot of the credit goes to Will Venable. The sophomore skipper has led Chicago to first in the division with a 67-61 record, giving him a huge leg up in this year’s AL Manager […]
The New York Mets lost to the Chicago White Sox on Friday, but it did not come without a bit of drama.

Meet the Mets The Mets got out to a 4-0 lead in last night’s series opener against the White Sox in Chicago. Alas, they could not hold the lead, as Sean Manaea surrendered back-t0-back-to-back homers to tie the game in the sixth inning, and Jefry Yan subsequently gave up a two-run walk-off homer to Jake […]

Jefry Yan has been burned before, yet he is back at it with his antics less than a week after the self-inflicted embarrassment. Last Saturday in New York, the 30-year-old reliever prematurely performed his strikeout celebration, which was later ruled a ball. Against the Chicago White Sox on Friday, he had a repeat performance in […]

For example: August 19th, Urquidy, planned reliever in the third inning for an opener: 6.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 8 K.

1923 In a game at Comiskey Park, White Sox pitcher Hollis “Sloppy” Thurston threw an immaculate inning of relief (striking out the side on only nine pitches) versus the Philadelphia Athletics.

For a young team like the Chicago White Sox, where most of the players haven’t experienced a playoff race much less a wining season, the dog days can be too much for some teams to handle. With plenty of time left in August, no one game gives reason to push the panic button, but the […]
The Mets got off to a 4-0 lead, but the White Sox erased that lead with back-to-back-to-back home runs in the sixth and then hit another home run in the bottom off the ninth to walk it off.
