Spencer Adams getting roughed up

As much as I love 80's new wave when i see Damn yankees i still think of the much older musical even though I don't think I've ever seen it from beginning to end before.

I decided to put this here rather than the WS Winner thread because it's more national than local. Yolmer was on the MLB Network show Intentional Talk before the game yesterday and Kevin Millar was talking to Yolmer about the IT mojo which is when a player appears on IT they usually do good in the following game and asked Yolmer to make a signal if he did something good to show the IT mojo worked. When Yolmer hit the bases loaded single to give the Sox the lead he did what Millar asked ( make an I T signal by making an I and T with his arms. You can see Yolmer did just that at the very end of this video. https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/news/yolmer-sanchez-keys-white-sox-in-victory/c-283117430

Yolmer came through when others failed. Sox could've had a lot more runs. Real solid night for the pen . No runs no hits no walks in 2 2/3 .

C'mon Jose get it together. It's like you heard you're the leading vote getter then decided you didn't want to be an All Star

Maybe just the Sox actually winning means nothing when people rather root for losses I suppose.

Funny. Just odd to me . Every other Sox run is mentioned but nothing for an Avi jack who's resurgence would mean a lot .

An Abreu double right here would be good for him and the team.

?Tree hugger ? ? damn hippie ?

3 scoreless a hit a walk and a K in 1st rehab start.

When did 1 win become a winning streak ?

yay

Damn I was hoping Renteria didn't stick AVi back in the 2 hole. He sucked there. He hasn't hit anywhere but 2nd all season.

You're killin' me Smalls.

Should see Avi back in the lineup for at least one of the games. Probably won't make him play 2.

Are we sure he is ready ? I'd hate to see him brought up too early. It may hurt his development .

Also might interest you to know that Ken Berry who was a White Sox CF and my favorite player as a very young man has a bit part in EMO . His IMDb profile says "heckler" but I can't remember if that is accurate. Guess I might have to rewatch it since I have it in my DVD library.

OK lets try the ol' reverse jinx. This game is ova !

• Avisail Garcia, hitting .333 with two home runs, three doubles and seven RBIs over six games of an injury rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte, could be back with the White Sox this weekend. The same holds true for infielder/outfielder Leury Garcia, who is 4-for-10 in his three-game injury rehab stint with the Knights. From Merkin on whitesox.com

From Merkin on whitesox.com • Major League Baseball has overturned an official scoring call from a White Sox contest at Minnesota on June 5. A Brian Dozier ground ball off of reliever Nate Jones in the eighth inning of Game 1 of a doubleheader, originally ruled a single, has been changed to an error on third baseman Yolmer Sanchez. As a result, all four runs scored off of Jones now are unearned, lowering his postgame ERA from 4.01 to 2.86.

Well. maybe it was asking for favorite things that people can recall that led to this thread being a dud . I can't remember any one thing but I sure do like the old guy. For a team lacking exposure on a national level he brought a lot of that even if it wasn't always positive. Overall I think it was a positive with his colorful style and unabashed homerism. I'll miss him. He is a legend.

Yea me too. Either show what you got where you are or stay there until you prove you belong at a higher level. No one can say for sure the reason that he under performing. Personally I just think it's because he has a lot to learn. I think he comes out of his funk fairly soon . Once he proves he is ready by commanding some of his pitches he'll be here. Just string some very solid starts together, like 4 out of 5 , and he'll be here at a still very young age.

So I take it from this comment and the ones on Madgrigal that you are not very fond of small players Can' I take a guess that you are over 6' tall ? Just kidding around.
