Lip Man 1 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 If anyone is wondering if this is the worst lost in franchise history, it actually isn't: May 10, 2002 - It was one of the worst defeats in the history of the franchise. On this night in Anaheim the Sox got obliterated 19-0 against the Angels. Danny Wright, Matt Ginter and Mike Porzio were the pitchers the Angels clubbed apart. Wright gave up eight earned runs, Ginter two and Porzio six. May 21, 2009 - The White Sox tied the team record for worst defeat based on run difference in their history, when they were annihilated 20-1 by the Twins at U.S. Cellular Field. The 19-run difference was first set on May 10, 2002 in Anaheim. Bartolo Colon, Lance Broadway and Jimmy Gobble gave up all the runs. Colon at least had something of an excuse…of the eight runs he allowed, seven were unearned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again just my opinion. I understand that...my point was to they can't be the pit of horrors that is this forum during games. Where a strike call is the end of the season.

Today is just one game and don’t mean nothing at first pitch tomorrow You have to be a robot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a lot of laughing that night and can still remember exactly where I was sitting for that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 One of those games where the ball moves a couple inches this way or that and the Sox scrape by with a win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenSox Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 The VV experience should end this evening as well. Foster was pitching acceptably as a back end guy. The Voros era analytics need to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Voros era analytics need to go. I agree another bad signing by the G.M. Three or four million more dollars wasted on a guy who career-wise was mediocre at best. I don't understand the Sox philosophy in signing these type guys, it's like they are always hoping to catch lightening in a bottle. That doesn't happen very often. Esteban Loaiza and Johnny Cueto don't come around very often where the Sox hit the jackpot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, less movement and no control. But it coulda been. So I wouldn't call it a bad idea to try, even if it failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
