White Sox Minor League Update: June 23, 2026
Rochester Red Wings 10, Charlotte Knights 9The Knights (42-34) came up just short in a wild one despite outhitting the Red Wings 12-10. The bats snoozed through the early frames until Nolan Jones finally got things cooking in the fourth with his 10th bomb of the year. Korey Lee chipped in an RBI double in […]
Miguel Vargas launches 17th home run as White Sox defeat Guardians, 2-1
If your name is Sean, you probably had a good day on the mound this evening. A pitchers’ duel in Bridgeport ended with the White Sox outlasting the Guardians, 2-1, to go up a game in the AL Central race and get a much-needed series win after getting swept in Detroit over the weekend. Not […]
Game Thread: Guardians (41-38) at White Sox (40-37)
Coming off of Monday’s roller coaster of a game that ended in a walk-off win, the South Siders look to take another game over Cleveland in the AL Central Division race behind righthander Sean Burke. The righty was lights out in one of the best starts of his career against the Yankees last week, tossing […]
White Sox Reacts: What to do at the trade deadline?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Sox fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. This week, we’re approaching our Reacts survey as a real, bonafide major league team preparing to make […]
Today in White Sox History: June 23
1919 White Sox center fielder Happy Felsch tied a 15-year-old record set by Harry Bay for most chances in a nine-inning game: 12. He had 11 putouts and one assist (Jack Graney, doubled off of first base) in the 3-2 loss to Cleveland at Comiskey Park. That record still stands in the American League, since […]
Sam Antonacci’s walk-off cues 6-5 win, return to first place
In a game full of emotions, poor bullpen management, and too-close-for-comfort scores, the White Sox pulled one from the Guardians as my favorite scrappy rookie, Sam Antonacci, walked it off in the bottom of the ninth for a 6-5 win. Grab your Tums and strap in for this winning recap. Things started really well for […]
Game Thread: Guardians (41-37) at White Sox (39-37)
The White Sox are back at Rate Field after an abysmal road series (losing six of seven) that pushed them back to second place in the American League Central. Facing two divisional rivals this week, the White Sox have a chance to move past the Guardians again, but the next two series are do-or-die and […]
White Sox Weekly: June 15-21, 2026
Last week, I ended the weekly recap discussing how the White Sox have failed to play with the same vigor on the road as they have been on their home turf. Perhaps the White Sox would prove me wrong, and that the baseball gods would continue to shine good favor upon me. Instead, I watched […]

1913 Behind Ed Walsh’s shutout, the White Sox beat the St. Louis Browns, 2-0, in the second game of a doubleheader at Comiskey Park. It was the team’s 1,000th victory. Outfielder Shano Collins drove in both runs for the Sox in the win. Walsh’s shutout was actually the second attempt at 1,000 wins for the White Sox. In the […]
White Sox Minor League Update: June 21, 2026
Charlotte Knights 5, Buffalo Bisons 0The Knights (42-33) poured on five in the top of the first, which was plenty to shut out the Bisons (35-40) and win the series. Charlotte loaded the bases twice in the first, leading to a two-run knock from Caden Connor and a bases-clearing double from Andy Weber just a […]
Martin’s gritty stuff not enough, White Sox suffer sweep
The White Sox offense struggled badly for a second consecutive game on Sunday afternoon, and for a while, they made Detroit starter Keider Montero look more like Tarik Skubal than Skubal himself did on Friday. Three blown leads in three days, this one a 5-4 eye-roller in 10 innings, means three losses. This is the […]
Game Thread: White Sox (39-36) at Tigers (32-44)
The precipice of getting swept: a familiar, yet unfamiliar, circumstance on the South Side as of late. Familiar because, hey, we watched this team in 2023, 2024 and 2025. It’s not like we didn’t see the brooms get broken out with more regularity than just about any set of fans, ever. Hell, they got swept […]
Today in White Sox History: June 21
1901 Already 29-20 and tied for first in the American League’s first season as a major league, the White Sox began a run of 10 straight wins with a shutout of the Philadelphia A’s, 4-0. Clark Griffith got the complete-game victory, his 10th win of the season. By the end of the streak, the White […]
White Sox Minor League Update: June 20, 2026
Buffalo Bisons 4, Charlotte Knights 2It was a heartbreaker for the Knights (41-33) way up north, as they hoped a two-spot in the second inning might hold up for all nine innings. That was a foolish hope, although the Bisons waited until their very last strike in regulation to walk off the 4-2 win: Your […]
White Sox drop 4-1 matinee despite Antonacci’s big day
Though it’s hard to be surprised, the deflation continues. For the second straight day, the White Sox couldn’t hold on to an early lead, ultimately losing their fourth game in their last five tries, and second straight against the last-place Detroit Tigers. Another early homer — this time from Sam Antonacci on the second pitch […]
Game Thread: White Sox (39-35) at Tigers (31-44)
Last night was a little bit of a clunker. You wouldn’t know it from the one-run, 4-3 final score, but it did sting just a little more than usual, because it felt like those are the types of games this White Sox team has been improbably winning all season. But I suppose the operative word […]
Today in White Sox History: June 20
1926 In a game with the Yankees that the White Sox won 4-3, a record was set for the largest crowd to see a game at Comiskey Park before the upper deck was added in 1927: 43,000. In fact, so many fans were in the park, they were allowed to ring the outfield wall — standing on […]
White Sox Minor League Update: June 19, 2026
As it seems we do every couple of weeks, here’s a rundown of affiliate standings, before we dive into Friday’s games. Charlotte Knights 10, Buffalo Bisons 5Old friends highlighted the Knights’ victory over the Bisons. Kyle Teel played like a man on a mission to reclaim his spot on the White Sox roster, going 5-for-6 […]
Tigers have final say in feisty win over White Sox
Even though this was a June game between two teams separated by over nine games in the standings, there was no lack of drama or fireworks in a gritty Detroit Tigers win over the Chicago White Sox. It felt like a division-rivalry showdown for the first time in a while — and the Tigers had […]
Game Thread: White Sox (39-34) at Tigers (30-44)
The road to winning a division in the MLB is never easy. After a tough series with the New York Yankees, the White Sox see themselves matched up with one of the best pitchers in baseball, Tarik Skubal. The game will carry some extra heat for Skubal, as he is making his first home start […]
Today in White Sox History: June 19
1884 Ill-fated hurler and inventor of the knuckleball, Eddie Cicotte, was born, in Springwells, Mich. Cicotte made his MLB debut in 1905 and was up for good as a major-leaguer in 1908. Four years later, he was swapped to Chicago and saw his career take off. Cicotte’s 11.9 WAR to lead the greatest White Sox […]
South Side Sox Reacts: The White Sox … win the World Series?!?
Writer error (yeah, Brett’s wearing this one) prevented the issuance of our customary White Sox question this week (it concerned the area on the roster to strengthen at the trade deadline), so we’ll table it for a week from now. But that doesn’t mean you didn’t get your national surveys this week, with some fun […]
White Sox Minor League Update: June 18, 2026
Charlotte Knights 4, Buffalo Bisons 0The Charlotte Knights (40-32) picked up a nice victory over the Buffalo Bisons, getting an early spark from the top of the lineup and a dominant effort from the pitching staff. Rikuu Nishida set the tone in the top of the first by refusing to take a called third strike […]
Benintendi grand slam powers White Sox past Yankees, avoids Bronx sweep
Behind an incredible 7 1/3-inning outing from Sean Burke and a grand slam Benny bomb, the White Sox (39-34) evaded the sweep in the Bronx, defeating the Yankees (45-28), 5-1. Both pitchers put on an excellent performance as each allowed a solo home run and struck out eight, but Burke outlasted Ryan Weathers with the […]
