Not even bothering with a title. This game doesn't deserve one. Worst I have attended by far.

If a game is official after five innings when it rains, why can't a manager just concede in the eighth or ninth and save baseball the embarrassment of position players pitching?Nellie had more doubles than strikeouts every year from 1950 to 1963, and more triples (12) than strikeouts (11) in 1951 (682 plate appearances.)

Definitely one of the 60.
They need to at least win the series in Cleveland, a sweep would be better.Last edited by LITTLE NELL; 08-18-2022, 05:27 PM.Now coming up to bat for the White Sox is the Mighty Mite, Nelson Fox.

That was pretty ugly. We had errands to run, and turned it off when it was10-0. That was bad enough.
I wonder how this one ranks all time for worst Sox losses. I'll try to find it, if somebody here doesn't already have it.
Right about now Andrus is saying, "Maybe this isn't a good idea..."

I'm a life-long Sox fan but I'm sorry. The truth is this team is not even close to a championship caliber team. Today was a hard spanking by a superior team, but let's get past that. The Sox are a poor defensive team, terrible at running the bases, the manager is well past retirement age, and they are not effective at getting key base hits. This Sox team is the biggest disappointment to me in all the years of watching them. Major changes are needed in the off season but I'm not sure Reinsdorf will allow that. But will see.
