Where was he going with his lack of speed?  Sharply hit grounder right to LFer.

He went full gas when he needed to.

That was one uncomfortable looking slide for Vaughn.

I didn't see the home plate ump signal safe.

Big difference is Singer has much more confidence in his third pitch...change up.

 

Great response by Sox offense right off the bat. 

The Sox should be hitting up the strip club with all these singles

The main line of storms is farther west. This cell literally just popped up on the radar. Not sure it could have been predicted.

My radar and weather forecast had storms rolling through from 2-4.

You bet the Sox when they're facing Singer?

Just when you think you've got the White Sox figured out, they tend to surprise people. I'm hoping they surprised people today with a win, lol.

He threw it like 6 times against the Yankees and he still shut them out.

A smart team would have used an opener, and inserted Lynn after the inevitable delay (heavy thunderstorms).

Royals have an equally incompetent manager (Opener for Singer).

The Sox will trust Lynn to come back out if he wants.  The Royals will not do so with Singer. 

 

He looked safe at second to me.

Edit: Never mind he was out.  But at least he hustled.

Barely beat him to bag.

But normal amount during hot stretch closer to 12-15 changes...

That's what I was wondering but it's moot now.

Moncada finally up near a 600 ops.

Played injured too much. 

Interesting twist.

Hosmer first trip to KC with Red Sox this weekend since he left as a FA to SD.

There is always a chance but in reality this is why bookies stay rich.

Yes, there is a chance, slim I know but still a chance. You just never know about these White Sox.

Wouldn't the run not count then no matter what the Royals do?

Lynn hitting his spots.

Singer not so much.

4 k's through 2.

Counterintuive, especially with Sox home record and Lynn's struggled upon return.

Valid points indeed but as they say, that's why the play the game. Let's see if the White Sox can overcome those obstacles today.

Not if it's not reviewed or move on to the next baseball play.

Better hope his knee allows it. Also that there is no steak available in the clubhouse during the delay.

Nobody would gave predicted Twins and Guardians would be in for battles today either.

Well, CLE just went up 4-0.  Minny 2-1 into 6th.
