Apparently, there's a Padres' audio stream, but I don't know where to find it. 

[Autumn Dreamin]

Meidroth, Vargas, EQ with hits in the first, but Meidroth was caught stealing.

Hays gets the fourth hit and first RBI of the inning, Sox up 1-0.

Also Team Italy vs. the Cubs in an exhibition match today. Teel is starting at C, Antonacci isn't starting for some reason.

[WestEddy]

4 baserunners in the first, 1 run. Midseason form.

Jon Berti told him, "forgeddabout it, I'm-a the second baseman!!"

Or you can subscribe for $20-30/year to GameDay audio through mlb.tv/mlb.com for the full season.

Not sure if milb audio also included still.

Newcomb is throwing a 6 pitch mix. The cutter is running a nasty whiff rate, but nothing else is getting swing and miss so far.

Vargas continues to play a solid 3B.

[Autumn Dreamin]

Bunt groundout for Brooks, Stand up triple down the LF line for Hill.

Baker walked and stole second after baiting two throws over, but Hill was cut down at the plate trying for the double steal.

Meidroth pops out after an 8 pitch AB, still 1-0.

[CaliSoxFanViaSWside]

Catellanos likes Newcomb . 2 run HR 420 to left. Toke !! 

[Autumn Dreamin]

Miggy bomb ties the game back at 2-2

Vargas likes Pivetta. Solo bomb ties it.

Its on mlb.

Chris Murphy had a prettier outing than Newcomb. 

[CaliSoxFanViaSWside]

Chris Murphy pitches 3 innings , 0 runs 1 H, 1BB, 4 K. 

[Autumn Dreamin]

The analytics apparently are in support of the contact play, but I swear it leads to an out at the plate more often than not when I've seen it.

Solid outing for Chris Murphy. 3IP scoreless, 1 hit/walk and 4Ks. Sitting 95-96 with the fastball.

With no outs it's not a good play. Sox testing Padres fundamental .Padres pass.

Sox a lot of outs lately on the bases whereas in the earlier games they were successful. Meidroth is not a base stealer.

[CaliSoxFanViaSWside]

Hill has been hot lately 2b and triple today 2 RBI. 3-2 Sox lead.

He throws that hard?  I had no idea

Wiki Gonzo into pitch.

[Autumn Dreamin]

Over at Sloan, a Kyle Teel homer to tie the game for Team Italy!

 

[WhiteSox2023]

So my son gave me a new custom Brother Rice / White Sox cap.  This thing is 🔥.
