Latest news and updates about the White Sox
Baseball is such a peculiar sport. The Chicago White Sox just swept the Toronto Blue Jays, and that’s indicative of exactly diddly squat about those two teams. What we know for a fact is that no matter the campaign the Blue Jays will have had at the end of the year, it’ll be possible to […]
1993 The divisional championship season began with a night game in Minnesota, and a big 10-5 win over the Twins. Tim Raines had a three-run home run, and scored two runs. The White Sox would wind up winning the division by eight games, compiling 94 victories. Jack McDowell picked up the first of his 22 wins on the year […]
Not exactly the best week to face the Dodgers, as the Jays push through the weakest part of their schedule in 2026 going 4-5, topping it off being swept by the White Sox. The Jays have really struggled with their bullpen, with almost half their games going into extra innings, which is not something you […]
The first few series of this season were supposed to be the easy ones for the Orioles. They had a better 2025 record than each of their first three opponents and they don’t play a team that was better than .500 a year ago until they meet the Guardians on April 16. Three series into […]
Nashville Sounds 7, Charlotte Knights 5 (Gameday Box)Even though he tossed four walks, Tanner McDougal navigated his control issues fairly well, allowing just one run on a solo home run in the fourth, giving up two total hits and striking out three in his five innings. The unfortunate part of his outing was that the […]
This series has been pretty grim. The pitching hasn’t been awful, one significant meltdown notwithstanding, but the offence largely hasn’t shown up against a pretty bad pitching staff, and now the Jays find themselves on a 1-5 skid and below .500 for the season. In case the results weren’t enough, Addison Barger had to leave […]
The last of our three-game series with the White Sox. I am in Nagasaki, Japan today. This is going be one of those heavy days that we sometimes get on holidays. The US dropped an A-bomb on the city near the end of the Second World War. We have been to a few of these […]
Spread the word — the White Sox are on a winning streak! Just when it looked like things were as bad as ever or even worse, the Sox have begun to show some life as they’ve taken their season back home to Chicago. Now, after back-to-back wins over the defending American League champions, they’re on […]
1974 The White Sox opened the season at home under freezing conditions versus the Angels and Nolan Ryan. Wilbur Wood started, which caused broadcaster Harry Caray to comment that the game was “The tortoise against the hare.” This time the hare won, as Ryan and the Angels got an easy 8-2 victory. The game did have its moments, however. […]
Three days after getting 2024 Rule 5 Draft pick Angel Bastardo back from the Blue Jays, the Red Sox got 2025 Rule 5 Draft pick Jedixson Paez back from the White Sox on Saturday. Unlike Bastardo with the Blue Jays, Paez made the White Sox’ Opening Day roster out of spring training last month despite … Continue reading "Red Sox get Rule 5 pick Jedixson Paez back from White Sox"
When one of the worst teams in the majors plays one of the best, it’s fair to expect that the mistakes will be made by the team that lost 102 games last year — not the one that was in the World Series. Scratch that expectation. For the second day in a row, it was […]
After an rare Friday off-day, their first of the season, the Jays play game the second of a three game series with the White Sox. And today, I’m actually not in Japan. If everything goes as planned we are in Busan, South Korea today. I often buy soccer jerseys when I’m traveling. I have many […]
Fresh off a dramatic 10-inning victory largely thanks to an emergency Blue Jays catching situation after Alejandro Kirk injured his thumb, the White Sox take on a Toronto team with an emergency pitching situation that’s the result of originally-scheduled starter Eric Lauer recovering from a bout of flu (as apparently is the case for much […]
The Yankees’ hot start to 2026 hummed along yesterday in their home opener. Aaron Judge and Ben Rice brought the lumber as Will Warren outpitched talented young Marlins righty Eury Pérez, and the Yankees woon, 8-6. At 6-1, the Yankees have the best record in baseball. So call the season there! It’s over! No? Whatever, […]
In the aftermath of a truly terrible start to the season (0-3 in Milwaukee, 1-5 overall), we wanted to hear whether the first week of baseball changed your thoughts on how good the White So would be in 2026. As it turns out, it did: About three-quarters of fans have downgraded their initial sunny assessments […]
Nashville Sounds 7, Charlotte Knights 6The Knights have fallen off since their bold start to the season. Unlike their Chicago counterparts on Friday, Charlotte lost control early. Pitching was not on the club’s side, but in reality it rarely ever is. Duncan Davitt came out for his second start, and put the Knights behind the […]
Blue Jays 4 at White Sox 5 (10) A few weeks ago, I came across a humourous yet apt video describing this time of year as sucker punch spring for the swings in the weather. Apparently it also applies to the beginning of the season for the Blue Jays, as for the second successive game […]
On the day it was announced that Ozzie Guillén would be honored with a number retirement ceremony in August, the White Sox responded by grinding out a 5-4 win in 10 innings. In the 10th, the White Sox lost the lead for the first time in the game after a careless error — then rallied […]
During the third inning of the home opener, the broadcast made the odd move to cut to the pregame/postgame crew instead of commercial. Scott Podsednik was on hand to make a mystery announcement: The White Sox are retiring Ozzie Guillén’s No. 13. Ozzie, sitting right next to Podsednik on the broadcast, interrupted Scott’s reading to […]
The Jays start their first road trip with an afternoon game in Chicago. And we can see our old friend, Seranthony Dominguez. By we, I mean you. I’m in Maizuru, Japan today, if all goes the way it is supposed to. I very much enjoyed Chicago when I was there a few years ago. I […]
It’s been more than a year since we’ve seen live baseball on the South Side, and after a one-day Mother Nature day, there will be baseball. Unfortunately, the baseball being played will involved the lackadaisical, 1-5 White Sox hosting the defending AL champion Blue Jays. And look no further than today’s starter for Toronto to […]
Thursdays can obviously be light days on the major league schedule, but this one was a particularly short slate. As far as relevance to the Yankees goes, the Blue Jays were set to take on the White Sox in Chicago’s home opener, but it was pushed back due to inclement weather. So, American League action […]
Tuesday, March 31 — Nashville Sounds 7, Charlotte Knights 3Tuesday was a clinic in futility. The Knights loaded the bases three times in the first four innings and walked away with nothing to show for it but a 7-3 loss to the Sounds. William Bergolla Jr. ripped an RBI double to drive home Sam Antonacci […]
Once again this year, we are publishing the season advisory released by the White Sox. This is your game day guide, not only for Opening Day but the balance of the season. Note one big change, in particular: 35th Street will be closed from 90 minutes prior to scheduled first pitch to approximately one hour […]
The Milwaukee Brewers, coming off a strong 5-1 homestand featuring a sweep of the White Sox and a series win over the Rays, will look to continue their momentum on the road against the Kansas City Royals. The Royals have also gotten off to a solid start, as they’re 3-2 entering Thursday’s series finale against […]
