This is OK with me. I believe in karma and now it's a close game and we can win again tomorrow. Blow em out today and we lost 6-1 tomorrow.

Wisdom is just a crazy last name.

I bet Grandal would love to DH tomorrow. After an 8 RBI day. When u hot u hot.

Nice. I almost always agree with your posts and was shocked.

I love Tony but no reason to have Kimbrel in now.

That's just insane. He's part of the completion of the rebuild. He's one of the reasons they will win 1-3 WS titles with this group.

Eight RBI? Has to be a team record.

Will Dallas K. even get a start in the playoffs? His pitches often scream, "hit me hard."

Not to get political but nobody is wearing a mask in the crowd. Crazy how different things are with people despite the continuing pandemic. That pic of the outfield was hilarious. No masks. I wonder if the guv will require them. We have to wear them here, but nobody does here either.

Lopez looks like he will be valuable down the line this season.

When the Sox tanked they stunk for a long period of time. How long are the Cubs projected to stink? How many seasons will they be under .500, .400?

Jose is a hit/RBI machine. What a pleasure to have him on my favorite team. Keep it up Sox, first five innings have been nice.

If this keeps up in almost all big cities (carjacks, senseless beatings), people would and should MOVE OUT. Letting people out without bond, failing to convict is reprehensible. If you are a gang member, I just bet you they have organized carjack weekends, weekdays. It's so easy. Just carjack. You will get away with it. Something is going on in America; for whatever reason, radicals don't want crime prosecuted and it will bankrupt all big cities eventually. Anybody who lives in Chicago right now is crazy, IMO. Same with New York, Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland, many cities. Peace out. And stay at home as much as u can. America is not safe right now IMO.

Serious question not trying to flame. I really wonder and want advice. ... I usually/always get the flu vaccine in late September. I've heard the Shingles 2 shots are vital cause Shingles is NASTY. I have taken 2 doses of Moderna and they say boosters are on the way. "Common sense" tells me if I get all the vaccines ... that's a lot of "stuff" cascading thru my body. So ... flu shot? I've heard nothing about the flu the past 12 months? Shingles? Booster? Wat's a person to do? Get all vaccined up with all of 'em or ?

All good broadcast teams and Chicago sports have had great ones for a long time, have periods of conversating. Most teams have complete homers who spend the whole game being cheerleaders and boring cheerleaders/ticket sellers at that. I realize our guys are homers too but traditionally they've also told it like it is. Hawk told it like it is; Stoney does; Jason is good leading in that direction. Farmer, rest his soul, and DJ also told it like it is and Kasper is respected as well. I think Sox fans could get used to Beckham's voice if that's the problem.

What do they think is so bad about Beckham? Just his voice itself? Are all fan bases this grouchy all the time? Maybe.

I like him. He loves baseball which we all do and he's into it. One problem is he pronounces a few words in an annoying manner but you can get used to it. I don't like Len's nasalness for instance and DJ can be kind of monotone. Give me Jason, Stoney and a side order of Bacon and I'm good.

Home runs and bullpen are a perfect postseason formula for happiness. Jose baby, et. all. Eloy mania.

All I can say is, "tough crowd."

I take it you are not a big picture kind of guy. Abreu arguably was the hitting star of the game.

You foul that many pitches off, you get tired. I'll take his production tonight. Sox should have more than 5 runs with all these hits.

I'm not a big manager ripper guy but if Tony ever does anything as stupid as Ricky did in the playoffs taking the starter out in the first inning ... then I'll rip Tony. It's comical how bad a move that was.

If Collins had a hit every Sox would have a hit within 3-4 innings; wonder if that would be a record for earliest in a game everybody had a hit. Can I add that I love Mr. RBI, Jose Abreu?

How can I take your post seriously when you say this about Hall of Famer LaRussa. The guy has done a masterful job amid all the injuries and actually is more baseball smart than any "expert" on this board. Yes he is. Substandard manager? Geez. Suffice it to say no manager in this day and age of analytics can survive scrutiny. I'd say in a significant percentage of losses in close games you can point to 3-4 second-guess instances involving the manager costing the team the game. LaRussa does a fine job with what's available to him. I can't take your long post seriously when you make a statement like that about a Hall of Famer/grade A manager.

You have to admit some of the White Sox players who have been gracing the lineup the past many weeks are very very bad baseball hitters. Hard to survive injuries.
