Sox stop streaking—on so many levels.

It happened, Finally! The Sox broke their 7 game losing streak. John Danks broke his 3 start losing streak, and the Sox, for the first time this year, beat Bruce Chen. Break out the Champagne. The Sox have now pulled to within 14 of Detroit, pending the outcome of the Tigers game, it could be [...]

Please Detroit, LEAVE TOWN!

Ok, I get it, Detroit is the best team in the Central. In nearly a replay from last Sunday, the Tigers went double digits on the Sox on Monday, beating them by 10, 14-4. They also had 21 hits. That was their 10th straight victory. Carlos Quentin made his return from the DL. He went [...]

Sox get 3, but they could have had all four

The Sox came close, but we all know that close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. John Danks had one bad inning, but it was enough to send the Sox to their 70th loss of the year. Danks only allowed 6 hits total, but Minnesota bunched 3 of them together in the 3rd inning [...]

Sox go to Minnesota, discover they love Twins

Hear that? Wait, there it is again. Oh, that’s the sound I hear. It’s the sound of the Chicago White Sox season collapsing. Let’s see.

Sox find a winning combination in the Emerald City.

The White Sox have finally found someone they can beat up. The Seattle Mariners are building what appears to be a pretty good team, but they are not there yet. The Sox haven’t done a lot, but they still have won the first 2 games of the 3 game series. Unfortunately, the Detroit Tigers refuse [...]

Sox find the range, stick it to Texas

I’ll start by giving a Carlos Quentin update. Q is out with a strained AC joint in his right shoulder. Let’s hope he can get back soon. Thank’s Cleveland. Nice job this weekend in Detroit. While the Indians were going tails up in Motown, the Sox were putting a hurtin’ on the Rangers. The Sox [...]

As the season winds down, are the Sox winding up?

Back in spring training, I was told that the first 120 or so games are important, but it’s what teams do in their final 40-42 that determine the season. After game 120, the Sox are now 60-60. Time to play or go home (love cliche sentences) . Recently things have been looking up as the [...]
