LMAO. Cue the Benny Hill theme

Someone has to make that video. 

Terrible lol

Also how stupid is it that it’s not a ground rule double 

The netting fiasco was hilarious and embarrassing but its really the route he took that makes me want to move him to DH immediately 

Just brutal. That’s benching material

As someone who's not very good in the field he takes a lot of these fly balls very nonchalant.  Get your freaking head in the game dude.  That was routine play. 

That was a routine pop fly. ?

Eloy made Schwarber look like Willie Mays

But it clearly would have bounced into the stands

Wait shouldn't it be a ground rule double if it hits the net?

NOPE.  It was Jimenez's body, and it bounced or ricocheted off, so still in play.

Took an absolutely TERRIBLE route to that ball.

Haven't seen a worse route since Kevin Reimer/Pete Incaviglia in Texas, or Lonnie Smith with the Cardinals.

We don't even need netting anymore. Take that shit out for this season.

it infuriates me personally that's bullshit.  that can't happen.

Stoney making excuses is pathetic

Shhhhhhh.  I have Yelich in a HR pool.  I'll take them any way I can get them.

Ok, fine, I'm team Eloy to DH now

Eloy has to hit .500 if he’s playing in the field 

Pull him!

This is one of those situations where Ozzie/Cora would pull someone out of a game.

Didn't happen very often, with Alex Rios a couple of times.

i'm honestly so pissed I'm about to just turn it off, that's the worst play I've seen watching the sox maybe in 20 years.

Sox have had some embarrassments in LF in recent memory: Quenin was pretty bad, Viciedo was horribel, but Eloy is in a league of his own

No one warning, what in the hell

How you make a routine fly ball to left into a inside the park home run is beyond me

Eloy is dead without that netting. They need to keep it.

Well, we always say the White Sox don't get any national media attention.

That's going to be on the highlight reel of every broadcast, local news, ESPN, MLB Tonight, etc.

 

Fred Hickman and Nick Charles will return just for that.  Might as well throw in TWIB Notes/Baseball Blunders with Mel Allen, with the cool soundtrack on Saturdays.

Gio is really off PISSED on the mound.   Can hear him audibly cursing.
