Autumn Dreamin

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.

SMOOTH LIKE VASIL-ENE

Sosa with a two strike count is a top __ hitter in the AL?

Baldwin not in the lineup, so maybe joining the team in LA?

Pretty sure they will promote him as soon as he can piece together ~2-3 weeks of above average offensive production.

Kurtz also has pretty strong home/away splits. I kind of wonder if playing half your games in a minor league park does anything to help the adjustment (beyond the physical difference).

Man, Luis Reyes has really figured something out. Another gem today, 6IP, 0ER, 3H, 1BB, 6K. Up to 25IP across 4 June starts, just one ER between them on a solo shot.

Colson 111mph RBI triple, off a LHP

Cags 0-4 with 3Ks today. Slashing .171/.218/.280 through 82 AB with 2HR (both in the same game), 4BB, and 20K. It's a huge jump for almost everyone, even top prospects.
