The White Sox need to go 12-20 to match the Tigers' lousy 2003 of 43-119. So does that mean going 10-22 would give the White Sox the worst record of all time? If so, even more incentive to beat the White Sux today.

Brant Hurter starts Tuesday vs the Angels....Faedo to the IL with a shoulder strain.

[Motor City Sonics]

A Tiger win today gives the White Sox loss #100 with nearly week left in August.   

 

At the 130 game mark

1962 Mets   33-97

2003 Tigers  33-97

2024 White Sox  31-99

Did Faedo hurt himself delivering the baby?

Ty Madden?   Really?    Make Fetter just needs a good long look. 

 

What about Reese?   Is he TJ-bound?

The 1962 Mets went 40-120. The '24 WSox would have to finish the season 8-24 to have worse record than they had. Winning percentage? IDK, my math is prolly wrong anyway...

Even I feel bad for the White Sox players and their fan base because I’m not intrinsically cruel. But I don’t care enough to see the White Sox win either of the next two games.

“Feels like 101°.” That’s pretty tough at guaranteed rate field. After having countless weeks of 100° plus weather and smoky skies from forest and range fires it’s only 67° in Boise Idaho today and the sky is clear and it’s freaking awesome and I don’t have Covid anymore.

Doh!

Glad you're feeling better!

In all fairness, the White Sox have to rise to the occasion occasionally. The goddess of statistical probability demands it. But I am looking forward to a lot of Tigers butt slapping in the next couple innings on second base and maybe some balls hit into the stands that are not foul. 

[Sports_Freak]

Bullpen days suck. Where's Olson? Mize? Any starting pitcher? We have a bullpen full of AAA arms...

[IdahoBert]

I was hoping McStinky might steal home after that lead off…

 

[IdahoBert]

Balls dropping in, fouls that stay fair, yeah, right now the probability goddess is on the Sox side. Glad we got out of that inning unscathed, though. Her love is fickle. 

[Sports_Freak]

McStinky in LF is an adventure. Kinda like a Coney Island freak show from the 1930's.

[IdahoBert]

Sosa at 2nd flashin da leathah. And Kerry triples and Colt singles him in. 

[IdahoBert]

Now WE are hittin’ ‘em where they ain’t. 

[Tigermojo]

Meadows makes it look effortless.

[Sports_Freak]

The more I see Parker play, the more I like him. He was already robbed of 2 hits today.

[lordstanley]

LLWS championship game about to start. Jiayo, Taiwan, jiayo.  If it’s tied after 7 innings, I think the tiebreaker should be a math quiz.

And now an RBI triple.
