More like Det-ROUT Tigers, amirite?

The Chicago Bears play the Detroit Lions tomorrow afternoon, but on Saturday night it was the Chicago White Sox baseball team with a two-touchdown victory over the Detroit Tigers

Luis Robert walks the Royals off in extras!

Dane Dunning was excellent in his second start, but the White Sox bats were cold on Sunday — until they weren't. Luis Robert blasted a walk-off homer, securing a series win for the White Sox.

Cost of doing business

If your hope as a fan is to watch the Chicago White Sox compete for championships as soon as possible, you have to be ready to part with some of your dearly beloved prospects.

Scratched, clawed, and walked off!

The Chicago White Sox entered Friday night's game against the Royals as one of the hottest teams in all of baseball. It was a long and scrappy night, but the Sox took care of business against their inferior AL Central foes.

On the protests ...

Many people view sports as a distraction from the "problems of the world," but we are far past the point of that being anything but a fantasy.

Wrong opinions (and I feel fine)

I attempt to justify my incorrect Chicago White Sox opinions using lyrics from a new Taylor Swift song, and try to earn a Lunchables Pizza sponsorship in the process.

Eyes on Mize (and Dunning)

A debut battle of blue-chippers Casey Mize and Dane Dunning was overshadowed late by two homers that gave the Chicago White Sox another win over the Detroit Tigers

Tim Anderson: unapologetically great

The Chicago White Sox shortstop has been off to a scorching start in 2020, and as long as he doesn't listen to you, me or anyone else, he should continue to dominate the majors leagues for years to come.

A Conversation With: Eloy Jiménez

Another piece of the Chicago White Sox talented young core sat down to talk to me about working on his defense, patrolling the outfield alongside Luis Robert, Drake's new single, and so much more.

A Conversation With: Luis González's college coach, Ray Birmingham

The Chicago White Sox announced (not before our very own Clinton Cole had the scoop) on Monday that Luis González would be getting called up to the majors. I spoke to the New Mexico Lobos head baseball coach to learn a bit more about his former player.

Well-rested Cards put a sleeper hold on Sox in a doubleheader sweep

In the opener of their seven-inning doubleheader, the Chicago White Sox couldn't figure out the magic of 38-year-old Adam Wainwright. And in the nightcap, the offense continued to flail, totaling six hits for the twin bill

Ending the old normal

Less than a month into baseball's return, remember the privilege that is returning to "normal," and strive to resist that urge
