Tim is ready for Jackie Robinson day.

We are rolling Velazquez, Kechuel, and Lambert out there and people are still defending the FO for not at least putting QO on Rodon. This is absolutely comical.

I watch a ton of out of town baseball. Benetti and Stone are as good as it gets anywhere. I feel like i'm in the twilight zone when people complain about Benetti.

and here's caufield right on time ready to bring you down to his misery level.

disagree. he's very good but his stats aren't any better (or as good) than several other cf'rs. he's not the five tool guy many claim he is. strong arm but not accurate, glove is shaky at times. he's among the better outfielders .. but certainly not an elite. sox fans just like to think he is.

Chicago takes Jackie Robinson day very seriously

People like to hate on Jason, but they have no clue how spoiled we are with our broadcast. IMO the 2nd best announcing crew behind the Mets

First game of the year for this guy tonight. Can't wait to get back to the park! I was at Game 4 of the ALDS last year so if the season ends tonight that's on me.

People in Iowa are still blacked out. MLB created more revenue streams and did not increase viewership. Seems, I dunno extremely fucking dumb

Cease was amazing Burger carried the offense Bullpen was nails outside of Bummer I'm not real worried about only getting 3 runs considering we hit a ton of balls hard to the warning track. This easily could have been a 3 or 4 run win.

5-2 given the injuries is amazing.

The people who are complaining about the broadcast yet still listening are doing it wrong. Mute that shit and put on some music.

Wait.... 3B are allowed to make that catch without hobbling off the field like they pulled 3 different muscles?? 😳

See, this shit is why we can't have actual conversations about women announcers. We've gone from a completely legitimate "this particular woman sucks at announcing" to "separate but also unequal" in like 4 posts.

This broadcast is terrible.

Reese must be rubbing off on Yas.

I can't help but connect these 2.

Something about teams putting betting lines on tweets is so gross

please internalize more.

Things like this change the whole complexion of the system.

This is so annoying. Liam will always have a special place in my heart for using his time with the commish to ask for the end of blackouts so we can just get mlbtv and not be shuffled around forty streaming services.

Carlos Rodon pitches the Giants to a win over Cleveland. Seven innings two hits allowed and 9 k’s

Jose Rodriguez with 2 doubles today. Hopefully he's turning it around after a rough first few games to start the year.

How does this lady know Liam's gate? What an absurd thing to say lol

Graveman was the closer for the Mariners for part of the year last season and had 10 saves. I was under the impression you couldn't be a closer and an effective set up man? Curious.

Burger has a 38.2% chance of getting a hit (according to this broadcast) when he's down 0-2 lmao apparently he's already the greatest hitter of all-time

"It looked like a routine play" No, no it didn't. This is not anti-woman because there are some very good female announcers but this one is not one of them.

I hate this decision to pull Vaughn

Eh I don't know we've seen Robert dropping routine fly balls

Offense needs to reverse the trend of not scoring late and get a couple insurance runs here.

he was cruising. I don't understand how another 4-7 pitches would have hurt him. He was lathered up and in a zone.

I'll go to my grave not understanding what the Sox were thinking on that one.

in games on Apple he's a .500 hitter.

SUCK IT LEURY HATERS!!!

1-19 The fact that Tony thinks Leury is an everyday player is criminal

Not if you use NoScript and allow only the scripts needed to play the stream. You're much more likely to get malware from all that porn you're watching, Jack.

I've heard HS broadcast sound better than this.

Why in the hell does Leury keep batting above Vaughn?!

Seriously. I already have MLBtv. I subscribe to youtubeTV mostly just for Sox games. Why the hell do I need to add another service to see all the games. I get that its easy and free. That doesn't mean is isn't still annoying. And to Harold's bar comment, what a great way to make sure that these games aren't on in any bar or restaurant.

Hmmmm. I'm going to have a hard time explaining this at the old man bar I like to frequent on friday nights.

“Guy is legit” and “small sample but I’m a fan” are direct quotes from people outside the org. He’s playing CF which he won’t do but it tells me he can definitely play a corner. He also has plus power potential. Definite big leaguer and probably a regular in an outfield corner. Reminds me of Cliff Floyd personally.

Off a AAA pitcher. Well... at least it's a start for him lol.

Joe was an outstanding major league starting pitcher -- he would have been a star had he played for a team that scored runs -- and an even better person. Total gentleman. He, Gary Peters, Little Looey Aparicio, and Ken Berry were my favorite mid to late 1960s Sox players. Other than attending Game 1 of the 2005 World Series, favorite ballpark moment was convincing my mother (I was 9 at the time) to let my season ticket holder neighbor take me to a game on September 10, 1967 (my mother's birthday) and being in the park when Joe no-hit the Tigers in the midst of the 1967 pennant race. Favorite fan moment also involved Joe. Sometime around 2015, a business deal gave me the opportunity to sit in a small booth at Lou Malnati's on Wells for about 2-1/2 hours sharing pizza and beer with Joe and his 1972 Oakland A's World Champions teammate Mike Epstein. I tried to tone-down the "fanboy" stuff, but wasn't very successful. Joe put up with my questions about pitching craft (he was a righty, but stylistically he reminded me a lot of Tom Glavine in his approach to pitching -- everything had a purpose, everything moved, and, in the earlier part of his career threw harder than people realized) and my recollections about his no-hitter. It was sad but kind of joyful too to watch this soft-spoken older gentleman light up when I reminded him that he hadn't given up a hit, but he had a hit, he was also hit-by-a-pitch as a hitter and hit one Tiger too (the only other baserunner against him was E5 Ken Boyer). I mentioned sad because Joe was clearly in the early stages of dementia or Alzheimer's and just a few years later it was announced that he had Alzheimer's. But on that evening, effervescent New Yorker Mike Epstein took care of his teammate while Mike and I regaled him about his career accomplishments. It was my honor and privilege to buy the man a few beers and toast his no-hitter -- about 50 years later, but I reminded him I was only 9 at the time. While his memory was starting to fade he remembered a lot about the game and his teammates. I asked him who the best player -- teammate or opponent -- he had ever been on the field with. Joe took about a tenth of a second and said that it wasn't even close. He said the single best player WAS a teammate, but he was being tricky because it wasn't a major league season teammate, rather it was a teammate early in his career when he was playing winter ball in Puerto Rico (great side story because many emerging major leaguers played winter league ball to earn extra cash and stay in shape). He said the guy he's talking about was the best he had ever seen in each and every category you could name -- best hitter, best power, best outfielder, best throwing arm, best and fastest baserunner, most competitive. Roberto Clemente. Joe said that playing with Roberto Clemente in his native Puerto Rico was like being on a team with Elvis. The ladies and men alike couldn't get enough of him. Clemente basked in all of the adoration. Within minutes of ending a game he was out of uni, showered, and dressed in ultra sharp and expensive clothes that would have been joked about if anyone else was dressed that way, but this was Clemente. Joe had a number of amusing "colorful" locker room discussions about Clemente, but this is neither the time nor place to talk about that. Joe said his interactions with the great Clemente were absolutely minimal after the winter ball experience -- mainly just in Florida spring training games -- because of course the A.L. and N.L. had no in-season interaction in those days, other than the World Series, and as a 1960s to early 1970s Sox player, it's not as if Joe was blessed to play in a World Series. That had to wait until 1972 with the A's. Joe added that the rare few times he saw Clemente after winter ball, Clemente always greeted him warmly and called him his nice "Texas friend." It was truly sad to learn a few years ago that Joe was suffering from Alzheimer's. It didn't surprise me because the beginnings were clearly there when I met him, but still so sad. It's now sadder still to learn he's passed, but, as many of you either know or will come to know, for the good people of the world who you care about, there is a certain grace when suffering is no more. RIP #20! Not a Hall of Famer, but like Paulie K., a definite inductee in the Hall of Very Good.

F U C K Y E A H ! ! ! ! ! ! Best news EVA! ...and she'll Like it too!!!

The 1994 White Sox and Expos walk out of the corn to play the 7 game series we missed.
