August 28, 20187 yr A lot without Abreu too. This is the kind of game I envisioned the White Sox becoming . If Robert makes it This team could be the reincarnation of the Go Go Sox. Imagine if the Engel "tease " becomes more than a tease.. Pitching speed now just need better defense and some OBP guys and we'll be where we can win a lot of games.

August 28, 20187 yr Not to take away from Rodon, but it seems like there have been like 8 or 9 games this year that Tim Anderson has won singlehandedly. Defense, offense, baserunning. This was one of those games.

Outside of a few pitches, this was probably the most bland stuff I've seen in his entire career. He was able to get the key outs when he needed to and didn't make a lot of mistakes over the plate.

Sort of helpful the Yankees were missing Judge, Sanchez and Gregorius.
August 28, 20187 yr What a streak they are on. Moncada, Anderson and Rodon led the way with good efforts. Engel continues to improve w the bat and is now the CF . Renteria has earned another year if he wants it.
August 28, 20187 yr I love the attitude Anderson, Kopech, and Rodon bring to the team. Anderson had an incredible game everywhere, but his base running was phenomenal. Rodon dug deep and pitched out of a jam in the 7th. His reaction was great. I hope moving forward we see these guys prove themselves as leaders and create a culture of badassery. These guys could be a hell of a lot of fun to watch for the next few years.
August 28, 20187 yr 11th time seeing my ChiSox in The Bronx and they finally win, I'll always remember this one, awesome win

August 28, 20187 yr I'm still worried about Rodon's stuff long term, but he's making it work with what he's got. Continued command on his fastball will be key if he's going to have problems with his offspeed pitches.

Those games at GR Covey Lopez and Gio started, Covey and Gio pitched bad . Lopez had a really good game .it was good seeing both Kopech and Rodon pitch effectively without their best stuff.

August 28, 20187 yr Great Defense by Tim Anderson, Yolmer and even by Davidson who picked some off target throws, including on the DP in the 7th. Tim Anderson is fun to watch on the bases. Yolmer makes some great plays at the hot corner. Life is short. Bring up Eloy.
