This series scares me a bit. A team that has lost 12 in a row is due for some different luck.

It does seem like a set-up, in that way.

 

We keep winning after we think things look bleak, then lose, when it looks like we have a chance to close the gaps.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Pirates' starter just gave up 4 earned runs in the top of the 1st on 35 pitches and his last name is Falter. How appropo.

[Bellhorn04]

We might be seeing more and more of Mr. Refsnyder in the lineup, as moon has been requesting.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

There's gotta be 80,000 people in the stands tonight.

Not only did they start DHing him v RHPs, they jump him to the 3 slot.

 

I'm glad he's getting a chance. If he starts to falter, then yank him v RH'ers.

His first name is Bail(ey)…

cgi…

Is this the return of the '18 Red Sox ( pick your century) ? Incredible hitting against a weak oppo, but they all count. Houck getting support and should have the win , if not more. great for him, he has worked for it and deserves the accolades.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Duran about to bat for the 5th time in only the 6th inning. There's no effective adjective to accurately describe how bad this White Sox team is.

[moonslav59]

Rafaela keeps hitting for RBIs.

 

5 batters have been on base 3 times in 6 innings.

2 batters- two times

2 batters-one time, with EValdez hitting a 3-run bomb as his only hit.

[notin]

For you non-believers…

 

Chicago play-by-play Jason Benetti in the bottom of the sixth: Well, it’s officially a no hitter alert.

 

Next pitch, Sosa singles up the middle..

“Minor league”?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

cgi…

 

The capacity at Guaranteed Rate Field is 40,600, but the capacity at certain locations do not limit the attendance to be 3 or 4 times more than it can hold. This is a new phenomenon.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

“Minor league”?

 

 

True, but I feel this team would even struggle there.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Westbrook's OBS continues to rise. Congrats.

[gojohn99]

Me too ..but not tonight!

I forgot all about the Sox with the Celtics on!

At what age does someone stop calling himself 'Chipper?'

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, at least, we're not White Sox fans.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I didn't think Chicago could have a franchise worse than the Blackhawks, but I was wrong.

Were the Bulls any good this past season?

It’s not new. Since 2020, you’ve been able to log into “Zoom” games…

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Damn, Houck's ERA just went up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX 'Ace' had another impressive start. He should be starting the 1st game against the Phils and the last game against the Yankems in the upcoming two series. Must see TV.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The 24 hits tonight are the most by any MLB team this season. The SOX also had 21 hits against the Cubs on 4/27.

[moonslav59]

Cue "padding stats" from someone.

At what age does someone stop calling himself 'Chipper?'

 

Larry Jones, formerly of the Braves, says right after they put your plaque up in Cooperstown.

Who cares, it's professional pumpkin chucking.

Who cares, it's professional pumpkin chucking.

 

After both Bird and Magic retired I stopped watching the NBA.
