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...

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...

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.
