Royals 5, White Sox 4: Trading fours, then resting
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...
White Sox squander their chance in Kansas City, fall to Royals, 5-4
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. Instead, they lost, 5-4. Apparently, taking control of your own destiny sounded a little too easy. Bryan Hudson’s opening assignment was […]
Bullpen is finally the hero rather than the goat in a Royals win.
Two big innings in the early going, one for each team, set up a tie game for much of the night. The Royals got the key run in the 7th to get their second lead of the night, and it held up for a 5-4 victory. Seth Lugo had a fairly easy first inning, which […]

Game Thread: White Sox (81-76) at Royals (67-90)
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 […]
Royals vs. White Sox September 23 game discussion
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 […]
What lessons can the Royals learn from the Rays and Brewers?
The Tampa Bay Rays and Milwaukee Brewers have both clinched playoff spots, and both are currently on pace to be the top seed in their respective leagues. They have done it despite each having a lower payroll than the Royals. The Brewers spent $145.6 million – less than half what the last place Mets spent […]

Sox Machine Live: Offensive explosion in Kansas City puts White Sox closer to postseason
Episode Summary Live stream begins at 11:00 AM CT / 9:00 AM PT The Chicago White Sox offense broke out against Kansas City, scoring 14 runs in their victory. While the offense deserves praise for its recent 8-game run, pitching was still poor, as Trevor Richards and Luis Castillo stumbled in the late innings. Regardless, with how the American League has played, a win on Wednesday paired with a Texas Rangers loss clinches a postseason spot for the White Sox. Presented by Ankin Law - Injur...
The White Sox have never had a bench player quite like Randal Grichuk
Not to say that Randal Grichuk has conditioned White Sox fans to expect great things when he's at the plate, but his 4-for-5 night against the Royals on Tuesday was somehow slightly diminished by knowing how close he came to hitting for the cycle. He just needed his slicing drive in the seventh inning to elude Kyle Isbel's diving attempt in center field, but Isbel was able to knock it down and limit Grichuk to his second double of the night. "I was just hoping it got down and saw him leavi...
Kansas City Royals news: Last stand starts with a whimper
MLB Trade Rumors’ Steve Adams looks ahead to the cold outlook for the Royals this coming offseason. Although the 2026 season was an immense disappointment, it’s unlikely that there will be sweeping changes made to organizational leadership. The Royals extended manager Matt Quatraro on a new three-year contract that covers the 2027-29 seasons — with […]

SOX POSTGAME: Chase Meidroth & Sox Bats Come Alive, Sox Keep Pace in AL Central | CHGO White Sox
The Chicago White Sox got off to a quick start and never looked back in a crucial victory over the Kansas City Royals Tuesday night. The big blasts came from Chase Meidroth, Brenton Doyle, Randal Grichuk and Munetaka Murakami who each homered in the win.

Chaos in Kansas City ends with White Sox on top, 14-11
Anthony Kay looked solid for the first couple of innings, keeping the Royals scoreless despite their first two batters reaching on consecutive base hits. Unfortunately, he couldn’t maintain that consistency and ultimately surrendered four runs on seven hits over just four innings. The lefty is known to lean on his four-seamer, but tonight he turned […]

Don’t give up: White Sox clinch 3rd straight win & playoff hopes
CHICAGO – Are you in the market for a slogan to encompass this amazing, bordering on astonishing 2026 White Sox season? Well, third baseman Miguel Vargas might have come up with one prior to a 14-11 victory over the Royals on Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium. Vargas was asked about the White Sox coming back from Friday’s tough loss to the Tigers, in which they blew a five-run lead and a six-run lead en route to an 11-8 setback, only to now win three games in a row. White Sox City Postseason T...
White Sox Outslug Royals 14-11 Behind Meidroth’s Five-RBI Night
Chase Meidroth drove in five and Randal Grichuk went 4-for-5 with a three-run homer as the White Sox outlasted the Royals 14-11 at Kauffman, surviving a Pasquantino grand slam in the ninth.

White Sox 14, Royals 11: Keep scoring, keep winning
If nothing else, the White Sox learned their lesson from the Detroit fiasco last Friday: Keep scoring. That was one of two things that allowed tonight's game to stand as a useful if uneasy victory, rather than another dispiriting defeat. The White Sox jumped out to a 9-1 lead that became a 9-4 margin when Anthony Kay was unable to complete five innings, but a big five-run seventh ultimately kept the Royals at arm's length despite seven runs against Trevor Richards and Luis Castillo the final...
Inspired Royals offense not enough to overcome uninspired Royals pitching
The last time I was physically here at Kauffman Stadium for a baseball game was on September 4, where I witnessed Daniel Lynch IV immediately give up five runs in two innings and functionally take the Royals out of the contest before it began. I got worked up enough about it that I wrote about […]
Game Thread: White Sox (80-76) at Royals (67-89)
Last week was tough for the Chicago White Sox, who could have practically shut the door on the Cleveland Guardians in the AL Central race but couldn’t finish the job. With six games remaining in the regular season, the Good Guys start the week with a three-game road trip to face the Kansas City Royals. […]
Royals vs. White Sox 9/22 game discussion
It’s the last homestand of the year. That sentence brings no small measure of relief. This has been a trying season for the Royals, and it’s certainly been a trying last month for the Royals. They have lost 14 of their last 19 games. And unlike some past years where the Royals have pivoted to […]
Offseason Outlook: Kansas City Royals
The Royals missed the playoffs for the fifth time in the past six seasons. After an 86-win season netted a Wild Card berth in 2024, they went 82-80 in 2025. This year’s group will win, at most, 73 games. The promising core of a few years ago has been marred by injuries and the aging […]
White Sox series preview: How the tables have turned
Last August, the White Sox were in the middle of a 102-loss season while the Royals were trying their best to stay on the fringes of the Wild Card race. The Royals would win 10 of 13 against the Sox, a big part of why they were able to finish with a winning record. The […]
