I didn't think Cubs weren't convincingly the better team in Game 1, but the Sox convincingly took this one. Couldn't have asked for a much better answer after last night. Davis Martin remains a joy to watch. Mune, Montgomery, and Miggy have homered in the same game 4 times already, one shy of the franchise season record (Valentin, Konerko, Crede in 2004). 6-2 on the homestand with the finale pending. 13-10 at home on the season. Sox lead the league in HR and OPS in May. Their 9-5 May record is T-5 in MLB and 2nd in the AL behind the Rays (11-3). DET/KC/MIN lost, CLE won. Still 1 GB, but a bit more cushion (3.5G) for 2nd. Royals on a league-worst L6. Still in the 2nd WC, and SEA/TEX also lost. From 23-52 to 23-22 in a year is quite something.

We FUCKIN. One of the most fun wins of the year.

Just one game go get em tmr.

Fun ass game. Martin pitched very well and offense is clicking.

This lineup will be scary when Teel is back.

Vargas now a certified Cub Killer.

False. Fail. Incorrect. Absolutely wrong.

Cmon Ray. Vibes are immaculate. You might find it obnoxious, but the club clearly enjoys it.

Is there another infield in MLB with this much pop? Miggy Mune Montgomery Call 'em the M-inefield the way they're dropping bombs

AAA depth when Braden is called up next week...

Davis Martin is what they used to call a stopper.

It's just funny that we were dying for a good left handed hitter back in the previous competitive window and now we have too many.

Sox 5-0 when Martin pitches after a loss. 1st multi HR game for MLB Mune. AL HR leader. OPS Ant - .804 Colson .864 Mune .943 Varga .879 Day game rubber match tomorrow.

Outside of 2 bad bullpen innings. The Sox have completely dominated this series so far

There's a Japanese fan who's been documenting their visit to Chicago this week on Twitter, and I'm so happy they got to see Mune's first multi-HR game

Shaw ran to first base like he was leaving the team during a pennant race to go to a concert/rally.

Just grilled some amazing bacon cheeseburgers. Gramps is pleased…

Boomer take

Am I crazy to say I want Kelenic to stay on the team?

Remember when Soxtalk was convinced Getz should have been fired for targeting Vargas instead of Luke Keaschall?

I’d love to see a classic WHOLLOPING. Give us a good ol’ fashioned BLOW OUT. 21 to 3 White Sox. Bring it on!

They used 5 bullpen pitchers yesterday. Fresh arm.

I won't use the other F word but just gotta forget yesterday. Glad Martin is on the bump. Even up the series and take it tomorrow. f*** the Cubs!

Must win game

There have been more Cubs fans than Sox fans at these games for a couple years now, and yes its embarrassing. I went to one game last year and decided not to go this year because its not fun to sit at Sox park surrounded by obnoxious Cubs fans taking over your home turf. Im sure many other sox fans feel the same and would rather not go at all.

Clunkers happen! It's a brand new day! Go Sox!

My observation is that the guy who has led the team for 45 years has destroyed this fan base if we are outnumbered by Cub fans at home. No real surprise there.

Sox draft Roch Cholowsky in 8 weeks.

That really sucked. Just don't implode. Sox scored 5. The pitching was the problem. I felt they looked a little intimidated with the sellout and the media,etc. If they want to keep winning, they will have to perform under the bright lights. A very young team. They need some more experience under all conditions. Lets take the next two. GO SOX!

We were due for a stinker, too bad it had to be against the Cubs, go get em tonight.

They are bringing Joe West out of retirement

This team is so fun to watch. It's nice to enjoy watching the game again as a fan.

Vargas and Martin got that covered! Colson mania!

Peters is another guy the Sox need to keep. Only 26 he is an outstanding fielder, can play all 3 OF positions and he isn't a total black hole at the plate.

Peters is fantastic out there.

Schriffen needs to learn that it’s ok for there to be a little silence in a baseball broadcast. He fills every second.

What a catch by Peters!

I don't quite get the obsession of going through shitty lefties to find a 3rd in the bullpen

There are two very new arrivals on the Sox, Antonacci and Murakami. When they go well the Sox win.

We are to the point where we are asking AI about #1 picks? I suppose Jerry is to Rock Paper Scissors.

Getz still clearly outclassed. Team isn't .500.

Once Ishbia becomes owner and along with a newer and better stadium, Sox fans will return. There was a podcast on the internet the other day about how the White Sox franchise is a sleeping giant. I’m guessing that right now the Cubs probably own at least 60% of the Chicago baseball fan base, when Reinsdorf bought the Sox it was about 50-50 but the man has done his best to alienate Sox fans so there will some work to do by Ishbia, if Ishbia can get the Sox to 45% of the Chicago baseball fan base, that will be a very good accomplishment.

AI just generates the most plausible response based on the data set. There is no actual analysis of reality going on here. It would tell you up is down if it found enough sources saying it

What did you expect after three straight 100+ loss seasons? A number of those Sox fans probably sold their tickets in April at a profit when they didn’t look competitive. If you went to Dodgers at Angels, or Yankees at Mets, pretty much the same phenomenon would occur. Brewers at the Twins, Cardinals at Royals, Phillies @ Pitt, Giants at A’s, etc.

As one who was at the game, it definitely felt like Wrigley south. Waaaaay too many cubs fans. What’s worse is they were all talking s%*# and God I wanted them to eat their words so bad. Also hicks was terrible no idea why Will left him in so long. Should’ve taken him out 2 or 3 batters earlier, it was obvious he had no control.
