Whatever, hang an L on him anyway.

I would consider having Capra bunt, but I'm petty.

No one on base

This ump makes calls in slow motion and it's driving me crazy

I assumed it was a given, but now I'm invested in playing spoiler lol This inning probably decides it

80 pitches already, a couple more solid ABs and they can chase him before 3K

I wonder how long they try to push him for 3K if Sox threaten again next inning and he's over 80 pitches.

Lol Austin Slater actually owns him

HR in 22/30 for Sosa there, including back at home.

Lefty lefty liner to RF for a walkoff RBI hit for Colson

Gonna need one of the vets to take on the burden of being Kershaw's 3000th K so that none of the young guys have to see themselves whiffing on replay.

#14 for Jeral Perez, tied for 3rd in the SAL while being younger/less experienced than the guys above him.

Statcast has 5 hits on 53 balls in play to the opposite field (.094 AVG). For comparison, .385 BA and .792 SLG when he pulls the ball.

Well there won't be a Kopech revenge game, at least.

Rodriguez threw another 4 IP scoreless (and hitless) today, so that's up to 18.2IP, 17K, and .069 average against.

This was win #28 for the season. The 2024 White Sox didn't get their 28th win until August 6th against the A's. This was the 8th series win of the season. The 2024 White Sox won 9 (?) series all year and 3 of those were in September. Also: The White Sox scored as many runs in the getaway game as the Giants did all series (5). They also held the Giants without a HR for the series.

The DSL Sox threw a (7 inning) no hitter and won 5-1. They did have 8 BBs and a HBP though, the latter of which came around to score.

Lefty lefty this time

In a road series too! Knights as a team hit basically twice as many HR at home as on the road, so XBH production on the road feels especially meaningful.

There was a balk called in every game this series, right? How often does that happen?

1-11 with 8K in the series. Guess they have a good game plan against him.
