Writing about the White Sox for a 16th season, first here, then at South Side Sox, and now here again. Let’s talk curling.
Live report! It’s cold.
Gavin Sheets and the Oracle Park right field could be a bad combination.
Leury with a strike out in first at bat, but who looks at the results anyway?
Of course, Lynn holds up his windup on a timeout and now might be hurt.
Well, he stayed in, so hopefully he’s ok.
Wasn’t limping coming off the field, fwiw.
It’s useful to have a live eye witness.
This team loves hitting ground balls so very much.
Four straight line drives now
Gotta have Leury bat there, of course.
Brutal
Moncada flew out with an EV of 101.9 mph that traveled 396 ft and had a xBA of 0.820.
Moncada also grounded out with an EV of 108.0 mph with an xBA of 0.500.
I say that’s encouraging. Others say it’s just two outs. I think if you hit enough balls with EV over 100 mph the hits will come.
Just 3 hits. One by Leury. Pathetic offense.
Why the fuck pinch run Vaughn? With Burger?!?
Yes, what was that all about? Now Vaughn is out in a scoreless game.
If there were 1 out…maybe, but with 2 outs? This 3D chess stuff is too complicated.
Dumb.
Time for old high leverage Tanner Banks against the top of the order.
Hmmm, I tried posted a comment, and it said it was waiting for approval and didn’t post (there was nothing obscene). Basically, I was complaining about Tanner Banks in this high leverage situation.
Whew, he got the job done.
That happened to me the other day. I emailed Jim and he said it just went to spam for no reason and he was able to put it through. No problems since then.
Ugh. That’s a homer for Abreu in most parks.
Woulditdong says it would’ve been a homer in 11 of 30 parks.
We’re rounding up here.
Or we’re including more than just MLB parks. 384 feet is a homer at a lot of little league parks.
Or what if it’s one of those old-timers games where they move the fences in? There are many factors to take into account.
I believe in Jim’s article today he mentioned Abreu keeps hitting the ball to the deepest part of the park. There’s another one.
This park….any part is the deepest part
Unless a lefty pulls the ball just fair – pretty shallow right field near the foul pole.
No. I mean, just no. And this after TLR burned Burger pinch running?
(This is about having Leury bat…)
Hahahaha he’ll start every game for the rest of the season now
Well, it will be cool to see pigs flying around.
The legend comes through as expected. Thank God Tony had him in the line up
Mr. Clutch!
Now we will have Leury for 7 games straight
I mean, did you watch his at bats?
But results don’t matter, so maybe not?
Well, Tony’s processes are unimpeachable, so who am I to judge?
If this clutch Leury hit sparks a strong run of play, Tony will never let the fans hear the goddamn end of it.
Yoan lookin better though. Need him
I’m willing to take the trade-off there regarding Leury.
I heard Chuck Garfien say “Let’s hear from Tony La Russa.” and I dived across the room to get the remote and turn off the TV. I’m neither young not athletic so it wasn’t graceful and I may have injured myself but it was worth it to not hear what I expect was TLR in peak jackass form.
Typical Sox fan, pulling up lame on a routine play. Now we’re going to hear that you’re okay, just resting for a few days, until you get retroactively put on the IL next week.
You are in White Sox form.
Sorry, did not see the game but heard Larissa comments after that great players get great hits, I lost it. The love affair with a .180 hitter in July is enough to vomit.
