So is this a White Sox broadcast or are stone and Benetti supposed to be impartial?

Benetti is supposed to be impartial. Stone is there for the White Sox perspective.

Come on White Sox, time to finally show some winning consistence, make it 2 wins in a row over Cleveland and from here on out this season play with fire & desire each and every game. Goals are still possible so keep the momentum going.

 

Any news on a start time?

Is there precedent for starting a game less than 11 hours after the last one ended?

I think the early start has something to do with MLB agreement with Peacock TV

Sounds like outfield is totally soaked

We will play and I believe we will strive mightily to win this game as we seem to play good in the rain

If the field is not playable in less than 60 minutes after is stops raining that should be a forfeit. Sox are in the middle of playing in 3 different cities in 3 days

Basically, the Guardians want to call it now, and the Sox are pissed they have to come back 9/15.

Stone said the field drains good but the warning track looks completely soaked right now

That's bullshit. Play now or play it as a doubleheader in Chicago.

They’re going to do a walk though at 2:15pm CST. “It doesn’t look too playable,” says Jason.

I’ll also add that after making this statement he began eating a hot dog on TV… which had no toppings what so ever. Dog and bun.

How dare he?

Must be starting soon… I hear sounds of gloves popping, see fans in the crowd, and don’t see any rain.

The problem is that there was a rain storm in the morning and flooded part of the field.

They also have Manning from the Guardians to provide the Guardians perspective.

Is that the only offday they have in common ROS?

Cleveland is doing all they can to avoid Cease today. 

They just need to call the game so the Sox can get on a plane and get to KC at a reasonable hour before having to play an early afternoon game.

8/29, 9/15, 9/26

Thank you CC for your comments about TLR.  Many of us have known this for quite a while.  It is good to get confirmation from a pro like you.

News flash to the Sox hitters for today's game: We realize you struggle to score runs, evidenced by the fact you are 21st in runs scored (4.21) and 24th in runners LOB at 6.99. Hopefully you will take advantage today of Civale's 5.63 ERA and not make him look like Cy Young, as you guys have done often this year playing horrible pitchers.

I like their chance of facing Bieber or Verlander than one of these guys.
