Charlotte Knights 4, Oklahoma City Comets 3The Charlotte Knights (38-31) squeaked out a victory, making the most of their three hits. They had just enough offense and got another shutdown appearance from one of the organization’s most overlooked relievers. Ryan Galanie got things rolling in the first with a solo shot, but that joy was […]
Another Sunday, another opener against a lineup that I do not like the White Sox facing. In tense but rewarding fashion, my worries went for naught, as an explosive six-run sixth inning broke the spell of Dodgers pitching on the Sox offense, leading them to a 6-4 comeback win that pushes the Sox back to […]
The White Sox finally popped a tire on their road to redemption last night, but AAA just showed up with Erick Fedde and a spare. The metaphor comes from the fact that yesterday’s resounding loss to the Dodgers felt like one of the very few games over the last month and change of unadulterated highway […]
1905 George Davis stole four bases in a 5-3 win at Washington, a mark that has stood for 121 years now (though tied nine different times). Davis led an onslaught that saw the speedy Sox swipe seven sacks on the afternoon without once being caught. Woe was Senators catcher Malachi Kittridge. It was truly a […]
Oklahoma City Comets 11, Charlotte Knights 7It was a tough start for lefthander Hagen Smith, who gave up eight runs (seven earned) in Saturday’s start against the Comets (38-29), leading to his fifth loss of the season for the Knights (37-31). Charlotte posted five runs in the first inning to give Smith a huge cushion, […]
Well, the good times were bound to run into a blip eventually, and this blip happened in overwhelming fashion. Sean Burke fed Shohei Ohtani an upper-zone fastball on the second pitch of the game and it ended up 409 feet away. Then, after a Mookie Betts single, Burke went 3-0 on Max Muncy, at which […]
No, you’re not dreaming. At least not about what the White Sox have been doing lately. Last night’s 8-2 bashing of the mighty Dodgers continued a streak of terrific performances against top teams in the tough stretch of schedule — and ran Chicago’s home winning streak to eight. It will be Sean Burke trying to […]
Angelina Victoria is a well-known and established Mexican-American artist hailing from Chicago, who sang the national anthem for her hometown Chicago White Sox on June 12, kicking off the first home game of a huge weekend series between the first-place White Sox and defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers. For City Connect and Homies […]
1908 Not to upstage the next Ed Walsh item on this day, but in a 5-1 win over the New York Highlanders (Yankees) the hurler not only tossed a complete game six-hitter, but stole home! The run was part of a double steal with Jake Atz in the seventh inning, providing the game’s fifth and […]
Charlotte Knights 12, Oklahoma City Comets 7Charlotte overwhelmed the OKC with small ball and some big hits. Ryan Galanie had a big night and continues to be one of the most underrated guys on the Knights, clobbering a home run and an extra-base hit to supply five of the team’s 11 RBIs. Korey Lee and […]
Just like dealing with a moody teenager, you never know what you’re going to get with Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Roki Sasaki. It seems that half the time he pitches gems, and the other half are absolute duds. Worse for the Dodgers, with Shohei Ohtani out due to knee inflammation the White Sox had […]
For the first time in four years your Chicago White Sox are atop the AL Central, after two impressive wins over the Atlanta Braves. With the team getting a rainy Thursday night off, the South Siders had a breather before another big series, this one with the reigning World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers. This […]
Chicago, your mantra for the 2026 season would appear to be “momentum,” but consider this my formal proposal for a more fitting theme: Slow burn. A year-and-a-half removed from the Garrett Crochet trade, the guys that came over from Boston — Kyle Teel, Chase Meidroth, Braden Montgomery and Wikelman González — embody a slow-burn mindset […]
We took a while, but after a month or so off we’re back to asking you about the White Sox and baseball at large vis SB Nation Reacts surveys. This time around, with the White Sox in the catbird seat at the one-third season mark, we issued a straightforward (if unexpected, just a month ago) […]
Charlotte Knights 9, Oklahoma City Comets 8The Knights (36-30) yanked a walk-off out of the chaos, toppling the Comets in a game that pinballed from the jump. Rikuu Nishida did his thing in the first — walk, swipe second, score on a Caden Connor double — then Dustin Harris with an RBI knock for a […]
There hasn’t been a better White Sox debut since Wilson Álvarez kicked off his Chicago career by throwing a no-hitter at Baltimore in 1991, so BreakingT broke out the big art guns with their newest bit of Soxwear: Welcome to the Show, Kid! This design, even by the high BreakingT standards, is outstanding: Braden jogging […]
The monsoons sweeping the Chicagoland area forced the cancellation of Thursday’s finale between Chicago and Atlanta. The storms were foreboding enough — with winds rippling the on-field tarp — to quickly dash hopes of a very late game start, which would have been the most convenient option given Atlanta is not scheduled to return to […]
Weather permitting, tonight’s game offers the Chicago White Sox a chance to complete a sweep of the mighty Atlanta Braves and further cement their place atop the AL Central. Typing or saying that won’t get old, not after the years of misery leading up to it. But first, some news and notes. Everson Pereira has […]
Chris Getz waited just two games to push the chips all in on Braden Montgomery. Unfortunately, Derek Hill, who picked the wrong poker table to plant himself at, was the casualty in an unusual barter between the White Sox and Phillies. In a wild and unpredictable world where the Sox find themselves having leverage, Chicago […]
Man. What a season so far, huh? The Chicago White Sox are 36-31 after Wednesday’s victory over the Atlanta Braves. They’re in first place in the AL Central. They have a real chance of competing for a playoff spot. There’s plenty of praise to go around the White Sox locker room. Munetaka Murakami’s power. Miguel […]
1918 Lefty Williams followed teammate Joe Jackson and batterymate Byrd Lynn by leaving the White Sox and going to work in the Navy shipyards in Chicago. Williams’ status had been adjusted to make him eligible for the military draft, and volunteering for domestic service in the war effort was a way to avoid being shipped […]
Oklahoma City Comets 10, Charlotte Knights 1The Knights (35-30) are off to a rough start this week, dropping the first two games in their series against the Comets (37-27). The Comets are proving that they still have plenty of weapons despite releasing White Sox legend Seby Zavala on June 5. Knights starter Jonathan Cannon, 25, […]
Well, look who’s sitting atop the American League Central. Behind six gritty innings from Davis Martin, another electric performance from Braden Montgomery, and a lockdown bullpen, the White Sox knocked off the mighty Braves. The win pushed the Sox into first place, and if you’re keeping score at home, that’s consecutive nights of making one […]
Still buzzing from last night? Yeah, me too. So let’s just run it back for fun! Braden Montgomery’s big-league debut last night was just about perfect. The kid showed up, swung big, and helped grab the W in one of the wildest wins of the year. He’s right back in there tonight, hitting fifth, as […]
