Classic White Sox.

The series underscores how far the Sox still have to go to become a contender. They can be fun to watch and are better this year, but still a lot of work to be done.


Absolutely. That was a major league ass kicking. It is amazing how far the Twins have come this season. One of the best teams in all of baseball.

I pray this is a mirage. I was hoping we'd have the division all to ourselves from at least 2021 on, possibly even 2020. Their power + the lack of Ks = awesome.

As far as pitching goes, they always seem to come up with starters who can start the year hot. They've always drafted pitchers who have managed to have at least a few solid seasons, and their trades for pitchers (starters and relievers) have generally worked out.

There has gotta be three or four dozen people attending this suspended game.

And about 50 "security guards" making sure you don't sit in the wrong seat.

I went to a game in the 300 level about a week and a half ago. They scan my ticket at the door and then try to scan it at the 300 level. I don't get the redundancy for 13,000 fans a game...

Uncle Jerry gotta protect the integrity of the 100 level.

The 300 level is special, but yeah most of these games should be general admission.

Bummer looks pretty solid. Where did the Sox get him? Is he one of their draft picks or did they get him in a trade

I get glancing at the ticket at the entrance of the 300 level, but they are trying to scan them.

Can people go to the suspended game and stay for the night game or do they clear everyone out?

Giolito walks the lead-off guy. McCann throws him out. Then Giolito gets the next guy to hit into what would have been a double play ball. Pitching over mistakes, and keeping his cool when he gets guys on.

Hitting 97 on the fastball too.

It's a great thing to see athletes mature. I know he's on a hot streak, but last year, he unravels.

Probably take him out, but it would have been 3 consecutive complete games. Throwing like it's 2005.

Yup.

Another start or two like these last couple and he will start the All Star game for the AL.

Thought that as well, but there is a lot of competition. Verlander for one.

Great recovery from Giolito after the bad first inning.

Be happy you have an all star...he isn't starting the game.
