The Mighty Mite

I think the kids will get better so that 40 million would probably get us a Wild Card spot.

Knew that, figured last night there must have been a lot of comps, today too.

2nd game in a row I have a hard time agreeing with the attendance figure. The Rate seats 40,000 and was more than half full last night and today.

Luis putting on a clinic today on how to play CF.

Agree, sort of pimpy.

I’ve seen hundreds on the golf course, we don’t bother them and they don’t bother us. Things get a bit goofy during mating season as the males are on the move and can wind up in swimming pools and you see them taking strolls down streets or hanging out under cars.

Wow, I don’t think I ever heard about that pitcher getting struck by lightning and then coming back and finishing the game. I have played over 4500 rounds of golf since moving to Florida and came close to getting hit by lightning a few times including this past Friday.

He gets the job done and there’s no doubt he’s not running at 100% with some gimpy leg issues but this guy has probably been the best signing by Getz of all the vets he has signed in his 2 years as GM.

Ernie Banks hit a lot of homers when he was a SS, 4 years with over 40 and Colson is a lot bigger and stronger so there’s a good chance but I’m going to go with 35. I saw Ernie hit a lot of homers but not the bombs that Monty is launching.

He couldn’t hit that pitch with a broom.

Don’t stop now boys.

Yep, we were historically bad last year so what I’m getting from your take is that it was impossible not to improve but the way the team played in April of this year I thought they were trying for a repeat of the 41 wins of last year.

Maybe a lot of comps .

Looked like more, I figured at least 20,000.

Nice win, take the series tomorrow.

The dreaded lead off walk.

He got all of it, didn’t leave anything in the bag.

Big K there.

Don’t let these bums back in the game.

I’d like to see a consistent lineup where guys can get comfortable game after game. Have we ever had this season the same lineup 2 games in a row, I’m not sure but am willing to bet no.

Grand Salami!!!

We need to start winning some games.

Bad ownership has plagued the franchise down through the years. Even though he was cheap Charlie Comiskey was pretty successful in the first 20 years of the franchise with the Sox winning 4 pennants including 2 WS and should have won a third, they also had 15 years of their first 20 where they finished with a winning record. One has to wonder what would have happened if not for the 1919 Black Sox.

It’s funny how things change, as you said the Sox will draw around 1.4 million this year, it took the franchise 59 years to draw that many when they drew 1,423,000 in 1959. They drew over 1.6 million in 1960 and led the AL in attendance, that’s the last time the Sox led the league in attendance. Back when they were pretty good from 1900 to 1919 they actually led MLB in attendance quite a few years.

Yeah but the 2024 White Sox were historically bad, one of the worst teams ever.
