  1. Steve Stone is just a damn good announcer. Such a pleasure listening to him.
  2. Hawk used to say, and I absolutely believed it to be true: “You are guaranteed to win 54, you are guaranteed to lose 54, no matter what. It’s what you do with the other 54 that matters.”. In latter years he’d bump up the guaranteed wins and losses to 60 each, but the concept still remained. More importantly, what he was trying to describe what was what defined a winning ball club from a losing one, which would be how they’d fare in a game like ours tonight. Our ballclub from the last decade would have found a way to lose tonight’s game. Winning ball clubs figure out a way to win a game like this tonight. This club found a way to win this game, which should give us all profound hope about the next several years with this team. And yes, all this coming from the guy most critical of Jerry Reinsdorf. He’s still the worst.
  3. I believe Carlos Lee hit that grand slam at our park, not Wrigley
  4. Great at-bat by Nick. Spoiling a couple of real tough pitches, makes contact, and one in and one over. Love the contact!
  5. This is part of the fun coming out of the rebuild. As Stone mentioned earlier, we are going to see many matchups in the upcoming years with guys like Mize against our star, young hitters, and match-ups against our star, young pitchers. This is a good thing. We are literally entering into a long-awaited window of excellent, competitive baseball, which will include playing against some other great talent in the league and division.
  6. Just a good, ‘ol fashioned pitchers duel. There are nights when the pitching is going to be better than the hitting. Just sit back and enjoy!
  7. If you follow Stone on Twitter, he’s very much a fan of Madrigal. Singer dropped all the way to 18th in that draft. Nothing to see here.
  8. Well, the Sox have five more at-bats in this one and are only down three runs, so it ain’t over yet.
  9. The previous TV play-by-play announcer would be having a field day with tonight’s umpiring.
  10. The Sox are so close to having an unbelievably solid team up and down the order that they shouldn't settle for the kind of defense Vaughn would (or wouldn't) provide in right field, especially with Eloy's limited defense over in left. Just keep Vaughn in the 1B/DH mix and then go and get a true right fielder, one with plus defense and preferably a bat from the left side.
  11. Kopech still here...✅ Vaughn still here...✅ Madrigal still here...✅ Dunning still here...✅ I’m good!
