This guy is a creep. Fired from barstool for harassing a coworker and just being a weirdo in general.

You've gotta be pretty damn creepy to be fired from Barstool.

braden looks like he's seeing everything right now, I wonder if they tweaked something with his stance or approach recently

His stance does look more open.

Dude is a fucking choad and I love seeing him fall apart at the hands of our Sox

How dare this Detroit pitcher have the same name as my handle.

And just like that, your first place Chicago White Sox are 64-58 with a 4.5 game lead in the division.

AL-best 22-13 division record, with a lead in the season series vs. every AL Central opponent.

Also now just one game back of the Red Sox who conveniently aren't an unbeatable menace any more.

Melton came in on a 9 start streak of throwing 5+ innings with 5 hits or fewer, and left with a season low 4.1 IP and career high 9 hits allowed.

Reminds me of them also ending Gavin William's streak of 10+ K's and 1 walk or fewer last week.

Keep taking care of business against the division and they'll be well positioned.

This is payback for the 2024 Sox sending three Central teams to the playoffs

Just saw the score. Watched the highlights. This is pure mentality. You can bottle it up and sell it.

Is that 6-0 at the beach?

No, it was 6-9. I believe he was on a date and scored more than the Sox today.

Phillies up 8-1 in the 7th.

Cleveland looks like they'll win, so they'll remain 5 back. But maintaining the 4.5 game lead is nice.

5 up on loss column is nice. It's starting to feel like we're going to get 85-87 and it will be enough. .510 from here on out pretty much forces the three teams behind us to go like 65% baseball to pass us. Doesn't really feel like any of them have that in them.

Will change a bit after the finals tonight but Sox are +15 runs ahead of the 2nd place team in the AL in RS now. Starting to pull away a bit. Detroit sounds like they are doing a bullpen day tmr. Be nice to stay hot and put up another 6-10.

They just don't let things linger. That Tuesday loss, for example, was ridiculous...they just moved on. Sox have had a few games like that since the break.

I also like that Will saved Richards to close tomorrow, it was just a deflating knock-out punch for the Guardians when they looked up, and saw that Venable thought so little of them, he'd let his junk-man close.

That thing he does with his eyes when he's talking is usually a side effect is long term benzo use -- and usually abuse. It would also explain some of his unhinged behavior. Benzo abusers tend to become almost like highly lucid drunks, they have absolutely zero censor and will say anything while high and the will not remember any of it. It's one class of drugs I will never, ever touch. They do such shitty things to the brain and body. I had a family member get hooked thanks to shitty doctors over prescribing xanax.

Terrible. I try to avoid prescription pills at all costs. We live in a society of pill poppers!

Will likes his soft-tossers. So far so good.
Maybe Thorpe will bring some magic

Is Thorpe going to start?

Rewatching the game as I had to work during the middle of it, Jason's tears are delicious. His partner is awful, adds nothing, and Jason gets to fill the air, the thing he loves most.

Colson's defense has been really good the last week or so other than weak ass throw that Mune bailed him out on.

That's how you frame a ball

Thank you for pointing this out. I've had personal experience with people in my life who have been addicted to drugs like Benzo. It does monstrous things to people.
