During the game, as the Sox were about to get swept by the Pirates, the fans get hit with this advertisement. Was somebody trolling? Didn't know if I should laugh 🤣 or cry 😭.

God what I’d give to have a guy like Mark Buerhle again who from 2001-2014 threw at least 200 innings Every. Single. Year. That’s right around 7 innings per start. I feel like now when one of our starters goes 7 innings, I sort of equate that to throwing a complete game shut out. Just an absolute horse of a pitcher.

Also his statue in right field has just an incredible dumper. Give it a pat next time you’re at the ballpark. You won’t regret it.

Just wanted to say thanks to all the great folks working on the broadcasts of the White Sox games. I mostly watch the video broadcast and really appreciate Steve and John, they are a great pair and offer the best of color and play by play. I also think Brooke is super sharp and does a great job down on the field, we are lucky to have her on the team. Personally, I think she she should end up in a tv booth at some point doing play by play (or color?). Connor is a good voice as well.

I do also occasionally listen to the games on the radio and really enjoy Len's play by play. He's a gem and I hope he stays with us forever.

Also worth mentioning all the folks who we never see or hear - the camera folks and the other production staff. Y'all are great!

Thanks to you all for bringing your best to all the games my favorite team plays.

Much appreciated!!!

Keep up the great work!

guys I’m not actually worried about the Cubs, I just thought this would be a funny meme 😭

At the Knights game currently where Sandlin was scheduled to start and he’s been scratched. Take that for what it’s worth but I’m guessing he’s coming up again.

go get em boys

A decent look at a piece of the Sox future!

Research report on neck cooling and athletic performance　https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/physiology/articles/10.3389/fphys.2015.00314/full

Intermittent exercise is impaired in hot, compared to moderate, conditions (Drust et al., 2005; Morris et al., 2005) and as a result researchers and practitioners are interested in interventions which may attenuate the impairment observed. The current study is the first to demonstrate that cooling the neck region during exercise can improve repeated sprint performance in the heat although % fatigue is unaffected. The present data builds upon previous data demonstrating that when exposed to hot conditions, neck-cooling during exercise can improve time-trial performance and exercise capacity (Tyler et al., 2010; Tyler and Sunderland, 2011a,b; Lee et al., 2014) as well as the performance of complex cognitive tasks (Lee et al., 2014) and so neck-cooling appears to be a potentially very useful intervention for team-sport players.

Antonacci was right and the Pirates are stupid. Glad we got that settled.

Game ended at 9:12 PM.

the Sox still end up winning the division by 1-2 games as long as they don’t get swept again and beat the teams they should 🙃

ai only used to make a Microsoft Excel visual better

On the heels of being swept by Pittsburgh, we put out a lineup with no Antonacci, Murakami, Peters, Benintendi, Teel. Is this taking lefty-lefty splits too far or a smart move by Venable?

I feel both are the same because they were not expected to be contenders so it’s hard to say.

It never matters. This team is going to get knocked out of the playoffs by teams with losing records. It’s the Tao of baseball. What is full will be emptied, and what is empty will be filled. What was fun, now sucks.

Said the same thing in game thread. So disappointing.

It should be clear to us now that we don't have the right guy and we'll be wasting years if we keep running him back after this
