That article in the Daily Herald about how Scott Carroll was currently our best pitcher must have fired up the serpiente azul.

 

Baserunning and execution with runners on 3rd and less than 2 outs. Terrible.

 

 

Semien=CLUTCH...but it's time for him to go back down to Charlotte and work on his contact rates. That said, if Beckham's hitting .150-.175 in another month, they might just go ahead and release him, Mitchell and Walker the same day for a symbolic purging of the past.

 

The outfield's going to drive us crazy until a healthy Eaton comes back.

 

GREAT JOB BY THE BULLPEN, though. Our greatest weakness has become our strength....isn't that a line from Superman or Spider-Man, haha?

Once again, Semien comes through with a clutch hit. Got to love it. If that average was .270 instead of .220 we'd be dying for him to be in the two-hole.

 

Good bullpen work again. I say that even though Lindstrom walked the tying run on base and gave up a two-out hit, making it moderately scary.

 

I gave up on the game in the ninth when Tank hit into the DP and went for a 45-minute walk to get rid of steam. I admit I'm a bad fan, but we did win, so I'm very happy. I hate losing to the Cubs.

Oops, somebody might kill my game winner thread. I don't know how to kill it.

 

SEMIEN is CLUTCH.

Semien is clutch.

 

 

Abreu is decent.

 

 

Q should have just thrown a perfecto so I wouldn't lose sleep.

 

 

Gordon is terrible.

 

 

I hate Scott Downs.

 

 

Love Daniel Webb.

 

 

Lol at the Cubs.

 

 

I hope they actually find a SP for tomorrow.

 

 

Matty Ice is on the verge of a sub 3 era.

 

 

Petricka is at 1.93 damnnn son.

 

 

Another ugly save.

Another ugly save.

Never 1-2-3

Another ugly save.

 

Not only does Lindstrom not have his usual plus stuff (95-96 MPH fastball), he also has pretty terrible control. It's a bad combination. I'm surprised he's not been hit harder.

Where would we be without all of Semien's clutch hits?

 

Great pitching duel between Q and Samardsgvfdsdfgby. I almost feel sorry for him.

 

Beckham can do no wrong in Hawk's eyes.

 

This game would have ended a lot sooner if the wind hadn't knocked down a few of our would be homers.

 

Petricka has been awesome. Downs has not.

No one can withstand the power of The Flying Serpent.

Nice win. I'll take them any way we can get them.

With how clutch that Semdog Millionaire has been, it's hard to believe he leads the team and is near the top of MLB in strikeouts. The dude either strikes out, or gets a big hit, apparently.

Don't care what anyone says about the lack of luster between these two teams, it is always fun to rag my cubs fan coworkers about us stompin' dat ass.

Pitching has been pretty good of late. Offense needs to come back to life but all this cold weather isn't helping a damn thing.. Also the injuries to two of our good left handed hitters has hurt this line up a lot.

Royals suck!!!

 

That's for Greg.

You let Semien ride it out and take his lumps. Without his clutch hits this season, how many more games would sox be below 500? At the very best Beckham hits 270 close to deadline and what will his power numbers be? Sox will ride out Beckham but front office after awhile might need to realize they wont get much maybe class a ball player c prospect or a 4 a ball player.

I wonder who is unavailable out of the pen tonite. Belisario seems like he threw the most pitches of everyone

The pen was pretty incredible last night, and has been pretty good for the last couple of weeks now. Believe it or not, after being 5.50 just a few short weeks ago, the bullpen era is down to 3.94, which is now 17th in MLB after being deadlast before.

yes! what happened!?

yes! what happened!?

 

Go read the gamethread posts, and tell me what happened. Im pretty sure the white sox lost 151 to negative 10, Robin Ventura was ejected, allowed back to coach, then ejected again for ineptness, and then the Cubs gained 15 wins due to sheer theo-ness.

Pretty sure Abreu is being suspended too. He transformed into Godzilla in the middle of the game, destroyed the right field wall, and headed towards downtown Chicago on a rampage.

The Cubs were happy that he destroyed a few rooftops

Game winning RBI by #5 (Marcus Semien) in his 5th at-bat on 5/5 against the 5th #Cubs pitcher of the evening. #WhiteSox #CincoDeMayo

#WhiteSox bullpen over last 15 games has a 1.65 ERA. That's 54.2 IP.

10 of Marcus Semien's 15 RBIs have come in innings 7-9. 11 of his 15 with 2 outs and runners in scoring position. Not bad for a rookie.
