First inning going much better than yesterday 

 

Don’t know how that was not caught but Moncada w a double 

Good to see Eloy still knows how to ground out up the middle to 2nd base. 

 Peralta pitching. Ty France double, Taylor Trammel K looking , Stassi nice frame, Josh Rojas FO CF, France tags up takes 3rd, Sex
Seby Zavala, flys out to the warning track in RF to Sheets.

Bottom 2 Casey Lawrence pitching.

Moose swinging K, up and away. Sheets HBP, Montogomery 0-2 to 3-2, foul on hit and run w SHEETS , Hit & run again., Monty looks at strike 3, Sheets gunned down.

It's weird to me that Steve and Schriffen spent the half inning talking about eating at the ballpark in light of Reinsdorf saying Benetti was "disgusting" when he ate on camera.

Top 3 RH Justin Anderson pitching. Nice slider, 3 pitch swinging K slider down and in to lefty,  chopper easy out to Moncada . Moncada another assist. Fast 1,2,3 inning.  Less than 10 pitches.

Game is on NBC Sports Chicago.

 

 

Kowar pitching bottom 3

Stassi 0-2 to 3-2 took a couple of close pitches, then looking K on inside FB, Mendick 0-2 K swing at junk low and away, almost beats it out. Benintendi lazy shallow FO CF.

This team is going to be bad. They need to work on their non-game banter.

Promo idea - White Sox belly fat holster night! 

Not sure why they haven't given Eloy reps to try to learn 1B, so he can serve as a backup 1B instead of wasting an active roster spot on guys like Moustakas or Sheets.

Rather have the three men flexible bench of these three getting regular playing time (Sosa (24) INF/OF, Shewmake  (26) INF and Fletcher (26) / Colas (25) RF/ BU OF) than having Moustakas, Mendick and Pillar who have no trade or future value.

Also nice to hear Chris Singleton interviewed on the radio broadcast. Not sure if he was forced out of his decade plus ESPN weekly radio gig, but he did a great job with both the White Sox and nationally. 

Seby swung and missed at a pitch in the dirt. Someone in the crowd: "I remember that swing!"

Nice hustle and catch by Moustakas!

Agreed. I liked Singleton in his work here.

Top 4 Josimar Cousin pitching.

3-2 walk to Polanco, stolen base, huge jump by PR Taylor. Garver swing and miss on 3-0 count, Walk next pitch. Another walk. Then 2 Ks Zavala up 3-2. Great over the shoulder running catch by Moose down the RF line. Comedy comment by fan earlier in the count when Zavala looked bad on a swing and miss and a guy yelled " I remember that swing."

Pronouncing pitcher's name Koo seen.

Haha MLB has it as "co-SEEN"

When they yanked him, I was expecting a Scooby-Doo moment where he takes off his mask and it's JOSE RUIZ!!!

Cousin pitching to 5

Foul pop out to Sosa now playing 3rd on 3-2 pitch.

Double by Solak into LF corner

Cousin removed. No control. Decent looking curve.

Jordan Mikel from Plainfield South gets a GO to himself. Fly out to warning track.

Still scoreless.
