The White Sox blow 8-2 lead in the 9th…LOL!

[cHawk]

Okay, Chicago. There’s no way you can **** this one up. You have an 8-2 lead in the 9th Inning against your division rival. To make things even better, you’re facing the 7-8-9 hitters. This should be a piece of cake.

…or you can do that. That works too.

Give us your tears, White Sox fans.

We did that to the Tigers a few years back. Good times.

Guardians tied in the 9th on a GS, with 2 outs. White Sox lose it in the 12th off a 3-run hr. Josh Naylor both times. Of the 6 runs given up by the Sox pitchers in the 9th, 3 were unearned

Actually is too similar to too many Twins games last year and the Dodgers game this year.

Wait ... the Dodgers came from an 8-2 deficit in the 9th, and went on to win the game?

No the Dodgers took a close game and turned it into a blow-out; maybe I should have said when Arraez threw the ball into right field and the other team won without a hit, but the Dodger blow-out is good enough.

Man Chicago is having 2021 Twins luck this year.  They are a better team than this but the baseball gods are against them at least so far.

Every time I watch the White Sox I come to appreciate our Twins defense that much more.  The Sox have a great lineup and good to great pitching but their infield defense gives games away.

Rare feat in that game - 2 dropped easy fly ball catches, one for each team. Haven't seen one in a good while, let alone two.

No luck involved, they're doing it to themselves. 4 errors last night and they've been playing sloppy, awful baseball like that for weeks now. Couldn't be happier for them or their fans.

1. "You didn't make the AS team but you just helped be the Detroit Tigers." What a line....

2. Aaron Hicks sighting. Bring back DaveW, we need him now more than ever....
