Jose's reactions on those line drives are incredibly good. He catches everything within arms reach of him.

Did teams finally give up on shifting Sheets? O's seemed to be playing him straight up there.

stay hot, gavinito

It started out right down the middle and then curved into the lefty batter's box.

Nasty pitch. Hard to lay off. Jose didn't. Get him next time.

Is this a post from opening day?

2-2.  He has been our hottest hitter.  That is why I was so upset yesterday that TLR did not pinch hit Sheets for Big Energy with men at 2. Nd and 3 rd and 1 out late.  Josh has failed miserably on those situations. That could have won us the game.

He should be batting 5th

573 OPS for Pollock against righties this year

Another horrible at bat with RISP. Pollock swinging at cutters on the outside corner, as he seemed determined to pull the pitch no matter where it was.

5 LOB through 4, we're ahead of the curve!

5 lob already

It'd make more sense batting him lead off against righties than Pollock

Maybe by 2030 the White Sox will learn about platoon splits for hitters

Another impatient hitter with men on base. Swung at first two pitches out of the zone.  Sox hitters today having a hard time hitting the breaking pitches.

It'd be nice if the offense could pick Cease up for once.

Hung one bad.  Cease has to get tough now.

The ghost of Eric Weaver came back to jink us with the quintessential 3 run homer.

Good things happen when Luis pulls the ball

Hey the big OF cannot hurt our power and only help the singles!

You are right.  This stadium fits the Sox better than GRF where our opponents out homer us often.

So uh… are we winning dis ding or what?

Abreu has to avoid the double play here

Eloy continuing to draw walks is so great to see. Walk rate up, strikeout rate down, quality of contact still great... he's doing a lot of good things at the plate right now

Elevate the ball, Jose

Damn tough luck 

Getting old fast 

Haha Yoan has no opposite field power.  He hit those same pitches probably 30 feet farther a few years ago
