Autumn Dreamin

With all due respect to my elders, the original show/song is older than my parents 😅 But I heard a cover of it in a movie once and it's been an occasional earworm for me since.

I could never stand Naylor personally, but I thought he at least had a "liked in his own clubhouse" reputation

Your first place Chicago White Sox are 44-39 and a game up in the division. This broke a 9L streak vs. Baltimore, which also makes it Venable's first managerial win vs. BAL. Sean Burke pitched a 3rd consecutive good outing, and Sox have won all of them (@NYY, vs. CLE, @BAL) Murphy/Taylor/Eisert combined to put up zeroes until the offense finally came alive late. The guys did bust out the Strokin' shirts again today, maybe that helped.

The comment was a reference to how obvious the challenges were because they were such bad misses, not chastising Sox for using them

Kwan just cut down a run at the plate because of course he did

Fitting to win on a challenge K with the night the ump has had lol

Stat padding game for Sox challengers apparently

Feels like a very similar trajectory to the last Sox core

Oof, O's defense having a night to forget

How nice would it be if this could spark some road momentum and then they get Mune back around the next homestand...?

Him and Mune could share 1B/DH, Beni isn't here forever.

Long stretch without off days, they said the plan is to rotate/rest guys a bit more

It's the same pitch blue, come on

I might have liked a Quero PH there if he was up

Good stuff Colson, big for him to come through there Love when he punishes lefties

One banana, two banana, three banana, four Put him on the Sox and let him rack up 3 WAR

Grichuk gets a DH day against a RHP, Chase a little lower in the order

The BABIP luck in the Guards loss was ridiculous

He's finding his footing, 3-4 so far with a pair of doubles and a slam

Just weird vibes in this one after the Colson error. First loss in a Kay home start since April, he had been on a good run at the Rate.

Gonzo not too fleet of foot
