The wins are heaven The losses are hell I'm happy with any playoff appearance and result this season.....although I realize any postseason losses would still be instantly tragic

Dang, it's going to bring rats to the neighborhood. They didn't have those before. It's going to provide an atmosphere conducive to rats. They will feed on diesel fuel and lubricants and will multiple FAST.

Wtf is going on in this thread. Sox win, back to 1st place!!!

Our destiny really is in our own hands. If you had said in march would you take with 9 games to go that the Sox needed to win 5 to have a winning season and a 90% playoff chance? f*** outta here: yea! We take that. we gotta enjoy this as tenuous and soul wrenching as it's been the 2nd half.

Not surprisingly, the crowd at the Amtrak public meeting were pretty angry.

Four factoids today: September 28, 1910 – The White Sox shut out Boston 6-0 in a game that took only 97 minutes but what was significant was, in it, the Sox recorded the first ever triple play at Comiskey Park. A line drive was hit with runners in motion to second baseman Freddy Parent, who tossed to shortstop Rollie Zeider to catch a runner off of second, Zeider then threw to Arnold “Chick” Gandil to nab the runner off of first. Ninety-six years to the day, in 2006, the White Sox also recorded a triple play! September 18, 1940 - A game originally played on June 20 with the Sox beating New York 1-0 in 11 innings, was ordered replayed by the commissioner’s office after the Yankees protested an out call on a fly ball in the second inning. A Sox win was literally taken away. In the original game, umpire John Quinn ruled that Sox left fielder Julius “Moose” Solters hung on to a foul ball off the bat of Bill Dickey long enough for it to be considered an out. New York’s protest was upheld by A.L. president Will Harridge on July 2 and declared the contest a no decision. The Sox found themselves in the middle of a pennant race and losing 9-8 in the eighth inning of the replayed game, which was the second game of a double header, when umpire Harry Geisel ordered the game ended, claiming it was too dark to finish. The decision meant a split for the two teams on the day after the Sox took the first game 6-3. September 18, 1971 – Sox outfielder Carlos May pulled off one of the rarest baseball feats of all when he got an inside-the-park grand-slam against the Angels Tom Murphy. May, a left-handed hitter, sliced a drive down the left field line at Comiskey Park in the first inning. California’s Ken Berry, the former Sox outfielder, slammed his head diving for the ball which rolled into the corner. By the time center fielder Mickey Rivers came over and threw it back home, Pat Kelly, Jay Johnstone and Bill Melton had crossed the plate ahead of May. The Sox behind pitcher Tom Bradley won the game 5-1. Inside-the-park grand-slams are even rarer than no-hitters. There have been 225 inside-the-park grand-slam home runs dating back to 1881 in Major League Baseball. For comparison, there have been 327 no-hitters pitched in MLB games since 1876. September 18, 2020 – Undoubtedly as a consequence of the pandemic-postponed season for the minor leagues and compressed nature of the MLB campaign, Garrett Crochet became the first player since Mike Leake in 2010 to make his professional debut in the big leagues. His only seasoning came in alternate-site (Schaumburg) appearances. He also was only the 22nd player to go directly to the Major Leagues since the start of the common draft in 1965. The top White Sox pick in the 2020 draft struck out two of the three Cincinnati Reds he faced in his debut, hitting 100+ on the radar gun multiple times. Despite pitching just one week of the regular season, Crochet ended up registering more 100+ MPH pitches than anyone in the majors in 2020.

White Sox Triple with less than 2 outs:

I don't think the Red Sox are going to lie down when they play them.

Do we have one now?

bothers me no one drove him in

Excellent work from Fedde. Probably should've been pulled earlier in the inning, but regardless good work. Mune getting only his 2nd multi-hit game and a big 3-run homer was such a massive relief. Please let this be him getting out of the slump. Still, this team really needs to find ways of generating runs outside of random 1 inning outbursts.

Great win Where do you guys slot Fedde in the playoffs?

Brother in law actually

That's the breaks of the schedule. Sometimes it isn't who you play but when you play them and how they are doing at the time.

Well over the years I've seen a lot of mediocre/ bad/awful/ has been pitchers shut the Sox down. I hope they can light the guy up and save the bullpen.

Can't believe Guardians get the A's at home this weekend. Going to be tough to stay tied or be in the lead after the next 3 games

Yes. He's at 80.2 IP now. I would imagine they see him using the opener next year and giving them 4-5 good innings every 5 days. Innings total around 120-130 if all goes well. Needs to work on his off speed but he's certainly earned the look imo.

One of Texas or Toronto will be more or less knocked out by the end of the weekend as they play each other.

Magic number to win division:

9 isn’t a magic number… but 8 is! Bring me another winner tomorrow!!

Was thinking similar, if we had just not blown those 2 games with Cle this s%*# is basically wrapped up.

Hey!!! Shut the f*** up!!!

Any win right now is a big win. Fedde has been an unsung hero for this club, he's saved their asses a lot. They did just enough on offense but man that has got to get better. The bottom three in the order tonight 0-9. Not good.
