Monday’s opener felt like a game the Cubs should have won handily, but last night’s seemed like the kind of contest they’d lose due to a lack of offense. White Sox bulk man Erick Fedde baffled them for several innings, making just three runs for the visitors feel like several more.

The White Sox acquired four direct additions to their 26-man roster, and three of them have at least provided some idea of the hoped immediate returns. Luis Castillo? He threw seven shutout innings on the strength of a reemphasized changeup . It's the only good start he's thrown out of three, but it's enough to continue rolling him out.

It just keeps on going. The Cubs complete another walk-off win. Consecutive walk-off wins, consecutive PCA lead-off homers. I could get used to this. That’s 13 of them and that ties 1932 and 2015 for the second most in franchise history (14 in 1930). I keep seeing echoes of that 2015 season. That’s a really […]
Carlos Rodón looked about as good as you could have expected in his first big league game back from an almost two-month injury absence, limiting the Orioles to a run on two hits and two walks in four innings. Trent Grisham continued his recent red-hot streak with a homer and a two-run single to drive […]

Personally, I would not recommend winning games this way on a regular basis. But the Cubs seem to have found the knack for taking leads, giving them up, coming from behind and winning in a walk-off. They did it again Tuesday night at Wrigley Field — including a long rain delay — defeating the White […]
The Cubs and White Sox met in the second game of their series Tuesday night in a game that featured another dramatic finish.

There’s something about the Chicago Cubs (73-53) and rain delays, isn’t there? After waiting out the weather for nearly an hour-and-a-half, the White Sox (65-59) folded against their North Side rivals, getting walked off on back-to-back nights, 4-3. Up until tonight, Bryan Hudson had just a 1.29 ERA across six opener starts and had allowed […]
There was to be no second-guessing in the late innings tonight, at least when it came to which Cubs needed to be avoided. When Pete Crow-Armstrong came to the plate with the winning run on second and first base open for the second straight evening, Will Venable didn't hesitate to intentionally walk him. Perhaps it would've been different if Trevor Richards were lefty, but Richards faced Seiya Suzuki with his right arm and sawed him off into a pop foul in front of the first-base dugout, which...

Shane Smith, still lost, flooded the basepaths with traffic in the bottom half and let the RailRiders swipe the lead right […]

A day after opting for handedness and pitching to Pete Crow-Armstrong with Hagen Smith versus walking him and choosing to go at Seiya Suzuki and watching the worst-case scenario unfold , Will Venable still sounds like he'll go no further than "agree to disagree" with White Sox fans who objected to the thought process. "All these decisions are tough and certainly understand what PCA walks you off there and he's such a good player and such a good hitter, but I trust the information that we hav...
The White Sox are looking to rebound on the North Side after a heartbreaking, walk-off loss to the Cubs in extra innings Monday. With a chance to even the series tonight, they are turning to a (fairly) exhausted bullpen to handle Tuesday’s game, with lefthander Bryan Hudson getting the ball first for the seventh time […]
