Today in White Sox History: April 18

With five saves in Chicago’s record-setting eight-game win streak to start 1982, Salomé Barojas was a major bright spot for the season.

The South Siders can’t stop winning

1907

The White Sox Home Opener started off inauspiciously, as the World Champions pennant was raised — and the pole flying it fell over!

However, the game went more smoothly, in front of 10,000 fans at South Side Park. Nick Altrock pitched the distance, scattering seven singles in winning a 2-0 shutout over...

Sox Pop on the Farm Podcast 49 — Early season Birmingham Barons update

Brett Ballantini welcomes the godfather of the White Sox system, Jonathan Nelson, back to talk about some impressive early returns from the jewel of the system

To keep the Sox Pop on the Farm Podcast canon taut, we went back in time to fill in the phantom podcast 49, and in doing so created a doozy of a look at the jewel of the system, the Birmingham Barons. And in doing so, Brett Ballantini again called on president and GM of the club, Jonathan Nelson, to get us up to date on this...

How I’m learning to embrace the good, with help from my friend Sean

Despite my often pessimistic attitude towards the White Sox, I try to find the positives. It can be challenging, of course, but sometimes you find a sliver of hope.

My friend Sean gives everyone a dose of positivity after each game, even the shutouts and games where the Sox are down by double digits.

Chicago White Sox Bolster Their Rotation with Two Top Prospects

Many expected the White Sox to struggle out of the gate this season and that became even more likley with early season injuries to Luis Robert Jr., Eloy Jimenez, and Yoan Moncada.

At least we can weep and moan about a bad call this time, even if it’s very doubtful it made any difference

Hey, the Sox led most of the game this time! That must count for something, right?

Well, er, uh, no. Unless you mean counting for a sixth straight loss and a 2-15 record.

On the bright side, Jonathan Cannon made his major league debut as impressive as Nick Nastrini’s was on Monday, giving up only one run in...

Can the wind actually help the White Sox score?

The rains that postponed last night’s game and led to a doubleheader today have wandered east, but the forecast calls for wind out of the west-southwest at 21 mph and gusting higher. So this afternoon, routine fly balls to the left may end up in the White Sox bullpen, and well-hit drives that direction may bounce off a car on the Dan Ryan.

STICK TALK

1906

The world championship season began in Detroit with the White Sox beating the Tigers, 5-3. Frank Owen, who’d win 22 games that season, picked up the victory. Just three days short of six months later, the Sox would close out the Cubs, winning the only all-Chicago World Series, in six games. Frank Hemphill, who played all three outfield positions in the game, drove in two runs for the Sox.

Yes, it’s just what you’re thinking: An exclusive interview with a temporarily magical White Sox oracle

Happy Tuesday, White Sox friends, and happy rain postponement. My typical opening greeting was changed from “fans” to “friends” due to the recent exodus of a huge horde of South Side supporters of the team. But like true fans, you’re still here with us, and for that, we thank you.
