Anybody got any good stories from Jacob's field?(f*** Flo)

I went to the 8/20/2022 game. We won. Johnny Cueto pitched a 5 hit 8.2 inning gem. Grandal got hurt on one of the worst sends of all time(more on that in a minute). Game had a long delay to start. So I was drinking and ranting about the team to my dad. I hated that 2022 team with a passion, and it's when I started creeping on this board. Felt like baseball purgatory. Anyway, a cleveland lady turns around and says "we're pretty miserable too. At least your team doesn't let all their good players walk. We never pay anybody." Then she went on a rant of her own. Rather than start a dumb argument about who has it worse I said, "fans of any team from the AL central are probably pretty miserable." Game was a pitchers duel. We were winning 1-0 in the 7th and Grandal hits a lead off double. We were all wondering why no pinch runner? Andrus gets a base hit and they send Grandal and we are already laughing at this point. Then he's out by a mile and goes down. There were two random White Sox fans sitting next to us and we were all just dying laughing. Because that play pretty much summed up the 2022 White Sox and all you could do was laugh or cry. Then I noticed all the cleveland fans had turned around and were gaping at us like we were monsters who celebrate our player getting hurt. But that one chick from earlier gave me a smile and a nod and said I see why you were complaining. So yeah, there might be some cleveland fans who think we are worse than yankees fans and it's partly my fault and I apologize haha.

Anyway, we already had some terrible baserunning plays this series so we got that out of the way. Let's get Burke motivated by the ghost of Johnny Cueto and have him pitch a gem tonight!

There was a Cleveland sports talk station on AM that I could get in the evening on the road. Their guy was once complaining that every member of that 90's team, Belle, Ramirez, Lofton, Vizquel, Alomar, Thome - were all going to wind up on the White Sox in free agency. Lo and behold...
