hankchifan Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Christmas in July. Sox wrapped a gift win for the Twins. - Robert awful defense on the 2 Arraez doubles. - taking slugger Sheets out for pinch runner in a tied game late and no outs, and not being available to hit in the 9th in a tied game. - Moncada and Engel running blunder resulting in only 5-3 triple play in history. - No coaching at first yelling to Moncada to stay put or come back to first. - Joe Kelly fiasco in the 10th. Including walking two who both scored. - Letting Kelly pitch to the lefty with Banks ready in the bullpen, which cost another 2 runs. And on and on. Chicago Blunder Sox at work tonight. It is tough to be a White Sox fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in MN so had to watch Twins telecast and it was blatant. Sure Jason and Steve mentioned as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofaRoache Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I believed in this team and this rebuild and feel like an idiot. This team just doesn't have what it takes and our FO is too dumb to fix it. Sox fans are just wasting time at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mumbling and coughing Damn I missed the game for fireworks w the kiddos and missed the triple play. Hearing Tony mumble and cough is an every night occurrence though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twins just played harder which is a common theme lately. TA not running is just icing on the cake. This reaction to injuries and such is just killing this team. You are not a playoff team if you don’t hustle. This team just thinks they're better than everyone else despite not making it out of the first round of the playoffs yet. It's like they like the smell of their own farts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand. Are you saying the ump is calling strikes when they don't swing at balls because of what now ? He's expects them to swing ? Or because the Twins don't swing and he calls them balls but they become strikes for the Sox then ? I'm so confused .

I went to one game this year and probably won’t waste my money on going to another game when I usually go to 3-5 each year. There’s no point in seeing an injury ridden team, a weak and overpaid bullpen and hitters that are around the Mendoza line when they should be better than that. I’ll just spend an outrageous amount on Comcast so my buddies Steve and Jason can keep me company or help put me to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KipWellsFan Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 That was one of the most disappointing losses I have ever experienced as a fan, and I've been on Soxtalk since before we won a WS. That Moncada brainfart was shocking. That's something I expect out of my novice Softball teammates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically they didn't have to do either. But since the Sox are the Sox they picked up the Kimbrel $16M option then traded him and spent $17M on an injured pitcher.Go Tony ! Go Hahn , Go Jerry !! I mean it just fucking go ! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
