No team losing decisively to the South Siders — with a five-run rally in the ninth, no less — can have serious playoff aspirations
With a stunning, five-run comeback in the ninth to snap a 2-2 tie, the White Sox effectively ended their Red counterparts’ season on Sunday. Not that the Carmines had any real hope of chasing down the postseason, and a loss is just a loss. But ... is it? THIS White Sox team comes back...

On the road to 112 losses and a 23rd sweep of the season
Day 5 or so of Bryan Ramos on the team, and he’s getting some serious Oscar Colás and Lenyn Sosa treatment. Has he even pinch-hit since coming back up? The rookie was on fire down in Charlotte. Maybe the White Sox really are (pointlessly) trying to tank games.
Anyhow, on a day where veteran Nicky Lopez sits (not to...

1901At South Side Park, the first-place White Sox treated 19,800 fans — the largest crowd the American League (in its first year as a major league) sees all season — to a thriller. In the bottom of the ninth, down 3-2 to the Boston Americans, catcher Billy Sullivan and pinch-hitter Jimmy Callahan singled, and Callahan stole second to put ducks on the...

Crochet crushed, and the South Siders are back to owning the worst first 143 games in baseball history
At this point, why bother pitching Garrett Crochet? Oh wait, who’s gonna pitch instead, given a 40-man roster filled with untouchables who couldn’t possibly survive a mid-September DFA in order to give, like, Sean Burke or Mason Adams a late taste.
Any, Crochet managed to stretch his 50...
Not to be unduly irreverent, but it wasn’t the heavens or Ceddanne Rafaela’s dead relatives who provided him last night’s game-deciding home run — it was the prodigious lousiness of the Chicago White Sox bullpen. | Winslow Townson/Getty Images

Cleveland sets a franchise record, on Chicago turf
1954One of the linchpins of the famed White Sox pitching staff of the late 1950’s, Dick Donovan, was purchased from Double-A Atlanta in the Milwaukee Braves organization. Dick would win 73 games in six seasons on the South Side, including a pair of one-hitters and an All-Star appearance in...

Another flaccid embarrassment mars a modest masterpiece from Davis Martin
Just a game ago, Brett went nuts with highlights, celebrating a rare White Sox romp and even rarer romp over a really good team.
Tonight, the White Sox did not romp, even facing a not-really good team. Still, the jetstream up from Baltimore to Boston proved too cool, as the bats were iced in a 3-1 loss to the Carmines that was every bit the...

Watch out Boston, trouble coming
Riding a one-game winning streak, the White Sox arrive in Boston unburdened by 109 losses or the death march that won’t end until September 29.
Or, it begins anew tonight. Who knows?

1903Doc White of the White Sox hurled a one-hitter in beating Cleveland, 1-0, in 10 innings in Chicago. It would be the first of five one-hitters thrown by White between 1903 and 1908 without ever throwing a no-hitter. Cleveland’s only hit was by third baseman Bill Bradley, a double.
White also threw one-hitters against the...
The White Sox sent right-hander Touki Toussaint outright to Triple-A Charlotte, the team announced (relayed on X by Scott Merkin of MLB.com). Chicago designated him for assignment on Tuesday.

In the most preposterous example of “on any given night” possible, the White Sox wallop Baltimore, 8-1, surely setting the O’s up for a saccharine September
Baltimore steamrolled the White Sox in two games to open a must-sweep home series, having swung a division lead back to a half-game over the Yankees and riding nicely as the best team in the AL entering play on Wednesday.

The Chicago White Sox managed to snap another lengthy losing streak on Wednesday, but even that came at a cost.
The Chicago White Sox hit three home runs, starting pitcher Jonathan Cannon supplied a solid effort and the team finally won again, topping the host Baltimore Orioles 8-1 on Wednesday night.

A second straight 2-1 mark in strikeout props brought us to 4-2 in our last six picks, so we're looking to keep the profit train rolling. Let's do just that with our three favorite K props for Wednesday's MLB slate.

1937Mike Kreevich tied the MLB record, with four doubles in four straight at-bats, in a 9-1 win at Detroit. The center fielder’s 4-for-6 day, with three runs and an RBI, moved his batting average up to .318. Three of his four doubles came off Tigers starting pitcher Tommy Bridges.

The Baltimore Orioles don't want to mess with their latest wave of success. A big part of that has been facing the Chicago White Sox, who conclude the three-game series in Baltimore on Wednesday night.
