Needs to make the transfer but I suspect it was going to be bang-bang at first

Letting Davis's ERA wear it a little bit to save the bullpen

Yeah I remember him rattling off the '05 team's starting lineup and rotation to Chuck Garfein

Dead air into the break lmao

Losing the double play there not ideal. Even in the early innings, he threw several non-competitive pitches to the glove side like that

Edgar blowing a challenge for no reason

Only one well-hit ball this inning (from Arraez), so no need to push the panic button. Just finish the job

Just keep throwing strikes

Gotta make some pitches now. Get Hicks loose!

I tend to not blame managers for much, but it's hard to avoid the conclusion that Vitello may be a joke

I almost wonder if he muffed it because he realized he was about to need to win a race to the bag

Borucki wasn't going to cover regardless of Devers muffing it

Eldridge got good wood on it, but Mune said no.

To be fair, putting Hicks out there would be the ultimate heat check and gives you a chance to really humiliate them (and a chance to humiliate yourself which is familiar territory for the Sox)

Anatomy of a big inning

Giants feeling like the 23-24 White Sox

That PA is an example of what has made me really optimistic about Mune. He's not always the same hitter. He tries to adjust to the scouting report and the pitcher and he often does it successfully.

Textbook nice piece of woodwork from Mune there

Look at that !

Derek Hill is a major league ballplayer. Does a lot of things at least adequately. A couple of them really well. And Sox are using him in a way that leans on the things he does best. Seems like a real good dude too.

First time through the order for McDonald was magical

See? Strike call was immaterial.

Derek could you not

White Sox legend Ryan Borucki warming

Pitcher can't get lefties out and can't throw strikes. Hmm, perfect time for my lefty to bunt!
