For those who care about milestones, that HR was career #50 and season #14 (his high) for Robert.

Also 2 SB, lol.

Or hitting, period. They are on track to break the season record for team strikeouts pretty comfortably.

Some team/player comments coming out about the conditions in NY. Both teams cancelled BP due to the conditions even before the game was called. Players reporting it being hard to see fly balls in the haze and complaints of physical effects like scratchy throats, headaches, coughing, etc. Hopefully conditions are better tomorrow, but I hope they don't push it if not.

ICYMI, some notes on Schultz: Full article from Daniel Victor/White Sox Daily

I mean...playing the Yankees while they're down Judge certainly has its appeal, but not if the health impacts cost the team later.

Liam's first save of the the season, Seby multi HR game, no hit start from Gio, and the longest win streak of the year. Not too bad for a day's work. Also gained a game on two (potentially all three, pending the 9th inning) teams in the division.

Middleton is at 13, I think.

Twins lost. Guards just walked in the tying run in the 8th, the other Sox still have bases loaded with no outs.

Arreaz average officially up to .400 now. I don't care if Pablo Lopez wins 3 Cy Young's, I will never not be happy that the Twins made that trade. Though it does help that Lopez is now looking a bit meh after a hot start.

Even better if the third is somehow a homer in 15/30 parks.

Well that one wasn't a porch shot.

Twins trail 5-0 mid 6.

The AAA matchups in Scranton and Syracuse have been postponed now for the air.

Has a game ever been postponed for poor air quality? Jeez.

Seconded, and I'll throw in a Benny bomb too.

Manoah to the FCL to work things out.

McKenzie back, Plesac DFA'd

McKenzie back this week for them IIRC

If I had a nickel for every time the Sox won on a walkoff wild pitch with TA up to bat in the last year, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice. The previous incident was facing the A's last year.

Behind the plate view.

Schultz hitting 96-97. A leadoff double stranded by 3 strikeouts in the first.
