Royals sure as hell tried harder than the Red Sox did these past few games. White Sox were just on a mission yesterday.

Not factual. Sox cannot pass Boston as they have tiebreaker. CLE technically could though if the Sox sweep, Cubs sweep, and CLE wins 2 out of 3.

Lovely day to retake 1st place

How about Matt Swierad? He has been the play by play for Charlotte for a long time. Give him a shot and he knows a lot of these younger guys.

Burke vs Sugano Sox at Yankees if the Sox, Guardians, and Cubs win all three. Unlikely, but factual.

Not saying Connor is great but much better broadcast with his lower key approach. I notice how at times he and stoney would go silent and let pictures tell the story. I like that over the alternative. Thanks for your efforts schriffdawg, but I bid you adieu.

I would say at the very least its during my baseball viewing memory going back through the 80s.

The White Sox games will be treated like late 70's NBA Finals - tape delay.

Dave was really fun. He had some regrettable moments but so many hilarious bits. Who was the old man he used to send out on the street to ask questions? They had a funny bit where they would send him out to report the temperature when it was like -8 degrees outside all week and all I remember was that man could do no wrong, everything he said was hilarious

You need a snare drum for *rimshots* you have been getting off some good ones

Funny this thread went this way as my White Sox text hate watch sting got into old David Letterman clips recently. Maybe I was young and bored but man that was great late night TV in the early 80s

Them too but if we end up in a Wild Card spot, do not want Astros. Still gotta root Rangers so you don't cross the Astros paths later regardless.

Nope. Gotta root for the royals this weekend.

I believe the Dbacks have the tiebreaker over the Phillies also

He's not Schiff.

We saw it this season. Crushing the union. Dude added Luis Castillo to this team. I rest my case.

Wegner is on your siiiiiiiiide

I don’t get the love for McKnight at all
