Matt Albers Is Fucking Hyped
White Sox setup man Matt Albers is on a hell of a hot streak, pitching a scoreless eighth in last night’s win over Toronto to set the franchise record for scoreless outings. Dating back to Aug. 4, 2015, Albers has appeared 30 times, thrown 33 innings, and allowed just 24 hits and seven walks while s...
White Sox Execute 9-3-2-6-2-5 Triple Play
Triple plays are generally credited to the defense, but as we’ve seen more often than not they’re created by piss-poor base running. So here’s an example of the Texas Rangers shitting up the basepaths as they manage to get themselves into a 9-3-2-6-2-5 triple play at the hands of the White Sox tonig...
Hawk Harrelson Submits Supremely Terrible Home Run Call
White Sox play-by-play man Hawk Harrelson, also known as Darkest Timeline Vin Scully, had a little trouble tracking this home run ball during last night’s game between the White Sox and A’s:...
Fans Are Trolling A Gag "LaRoche Family Recovery Fund"
I can’t get enough of this Drake LaRoche thing. It’s the best, dumbest, most baseball controversy I can imagine. Adam Eaton saying of a 14-year-old boy that “we lost a leader?” Love it. Unnamed White Sox players finally emerging to say actually, it kind of sucks to have a teen in our workplace every...
It Looks Like A Bunch Of White Sox Players Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Teen Son
The continuing controversy over Adam LaRoche retiring because the White Sox wouldn’t let his teen son Drake hang out in the clubhouse every day shouldn’t still be this funny, and yet, here we find ourselves this morning, with Adam Eaton saying things like this....
Adam LaRoche Says White Sox Asked Him To Stop Bringing His Son To The Clubhouse Altogether
Adam LaRoche has released a statement about his 14-year-old son Drake, his decision to walk away from the White Sox, team vice president Kenny Williams, family, baseball, character, morals, God, brands, and a whole bunch of other stuff....
Chris Sale Is Really Mad That The White Sox Won't Let A Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse All Day
Starting pitcher Chris Sale is a valued player in good standing with the White Sox, so he’s using his position to call out the team’s handling of Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son, Drake. This morning, Sale had both LaRoches’ jerseys hanging in his locker, and accused White Sox vice president Ken...
Who Had A Problem With Adam LaRoche's Kid?
Adam LaRoche and his 14-year-old son Drake aren’t with the White Sox anymore; the first baseman walked away from the team on Tuesday after Kenny Williams asked him to reduce Drake’s time around the clubhouse. This unique MLB controversy gets more confusing, however. Today, reports claim that White S...
The Cubs And White Sox Aren't Happy About Chicago's Smokeless Tobacco Ban In Stadiums
Yesterday, Chicago’s city council passed an ordinance banning all forms of smokeless tobacco from the city’s sports stadiums. That means no dip, no chaw, no snus, all informally part of baseball culture as long as there has been a sport where men sit around for three hours every day. And for the pla...
Adam LaRoche Retired Because The White Sox Wouldn't Let His Kid Hang Out In The Clubhouse Every Day
On Tuesday, Chicago White Sox first baseman Adam LaRoche announced, much to the relief of White Sox fans, that he would retire from baseball. It now appears that his decision was related less to his inability to hit at a major league level or to injuries than to his 14-year-old son, Drake. According...
Man At White Sox Game Reacts Appropriately To The Wave

Mike Scioscia Called "Bush League" For Trying To Freeze Opposing Pitcher
White Sox closer David Robertson accused Angels manager Mike Scioscia of intentionally blocking the plate during an argument with umpires so Robertson couldn’t stay warm, a charge Scioscia denied....
Pitching To Mike Trout Is No Damn Fun, Man
It’s not like Mike Trout’s career highlight reel needed another entry in order to convince you that he’s very likely going to go down as one of the best players in history, but here, have another one....
22 Years Ago Today, Nolan Ryan Beat The Shit Out Of Robin Ventura
You charge the mound because you’re furious. Because you want to hurt someone. You know you’ll be ejected, fined, suspended, but it’s all worth it for brief taste of revenge. You never do it thinking that it all might go horribly wrong, and you might wind up on the receiving end of one of the most i...
White Sox Complete Extremely Stupid Double Play
This double play to close the third in Chicago today is just like White Sox broadcaster Ken “Hawk” Harrelson: famous for being awful. (Fortunately for the White Sox, the Cubs managed to be even more awful at baserunning during the 9-2-6 double play.)...
Some Thoughts On Chris Sale's Historically Dominant Run
Last night, White Sox ace Chris Sale struck out 12 Cardinals in eight innings, becoming just the second pitcher in baseball history to strike out 10 or more batters in eight consecutive starts. Here are some thoughts about that....
Nobody Can Touch Chris Sale Right Now
Remember yesterday, when we were talking about how incredible Rays ace and kiss-denier Chris Archer has been over his last three starts, during which he literally made baseball history? Well, it’s time to give Chris Sale some love, too, because he’s been just as dominant as Archer has during his las...
