  • South Side Hit Men changed the title to 8/5 - White Sox Open a Can of Whup Ass: 7-4 Victory Thread over pathetic Cleveland Guardians

Jose headbutted Tim's junk/cup and then started wagging his finger in Tim's face. Tim defended himself.

I always blame the out of line player in these instances, be it Robin Ventura 30 years ago and Jose Ramirez tonight.

If Tim slid into Jose Ramirez, bitched, got up and wagged his finger in Jose's pork face, I'd feel the same way toward Tim.

In defense of Tim he was out of his weight class.

We have known for a while now that certain Sox players are made of glass. But this confirms so is TA's jaw.

Glass Joe got traded to LA but we've got Glass Tim

Sox don't really have a great track record with 1 on 1s. Robin. AJ. Tim. 

AJ flattened Barrett with a clean hit while Barrett was blocking the plate.  Then Barrett sucker punched AJ and it hardly phased him.  He just looked at Barrett like "WTF is your problem?"  Cubs fans post the still pic of Barrett's fist on AJ's jaw and try to make it seem like Barrett kicked AJ's ass as a metaphor for the Cubs beating the Sox, when in reality it was just the opposite.

Eloy's injury at the 1:18 mark center slightly upper portion, believe either someone stepped on his toe or he sprained his ankle.

The Sox (and Guardians) can appeal suspensions and play tomorrow (managers and coaches cannot),  but with the early start time, they are likely not able to bring in anyone from Norfolk (where Charlotte played a doubleheader tonight) to fill in for Moncada (already out with his back, he should be shut down) and Eloy (already missed three starts this week), plus we will see if Tim has concussion protocol.

Might see this lineup tomorrow:

  • LF Benintendi
  • CF Robert
  • 2B Vaughn
  • DH Sheets
  • 1B Grandal
  • C Zavala
  • RF Colas
  • 3B Remillard
  • SS Andrus

Bench: Trace Thompson

Bench Emergency Availability: Anderson; Jimenez; Moncada

Anderson fought like a guy who has not had many fights in his life.  And he can’t take a punch obviously.

Yeah super embarrassing, I wish they would just decline his option he’s a terrible role model and a lousy player

Dumb fight, but what was really embarrassing was Bummer completely losing his command with two out and no one on. The game shouldn't have been that close. And Shaw and Bummer coming out for second innings because the Sox have no one else in the pen. Also, the fight will not inspire anything. 90+ losses are on the way. Finally, the Sox will finish behind this unimpressive Cleveland team.

Point still stands. Sox don't have a great track record of not looking like the winners in these fights.
