Montgomery had an RBI Single off a LHP in the 9th. Sox lose.

Gonna have to agree here. Chances are Thompson is a nothing . If you wait much longer he's an older nothing. Maybe Horn is a nothing too, but right now he's a better nothing. Just a nothing for nothing trade that means pretty much nothing except giving the Cubs something for Horn who needed a roster spot for Bellinger. It's good we have such dedicated minor league fans who were hoping the Thompson /Dahlquist duo would eventually yield a major leaguer.

Yes happens every spring when people follow along on Game day and don't actually watch what's happening.

Montgomery sac fly RBI after single ,walk ,WP against Gavin Stone. 5 -3 Sox

And Eloy GO gets a run home and leaves men on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out. Moose K Fletch GO Promising situation fizzles 1-0 Sox

Fletcher doesn't have the speed to play CF . His calling card as a good defensive OF are his reads and jumps. In CF you have to cover a lot more ground and having top speed often makes up for bad jumps. If heakes a bad read like he did yesterday he's going to look bad. Now I don't care about a bunch of spring training errors made mostly by the kids who aren't going to be on the 26. There's a lot of hate going around Soxtalk for good reason but hating on the new guys in ST seems crazy to me. Blame JR all day every day for the sorry state of affairs but can everyone cut the players some slack ? We all know they are mostly fringe MLB or career minor league guys. Please don't let you current disdain for the organization cloud your judgement on basically innocent players because they weren't born with the physical gifts necessary to be the best of the best. It just seems petty and mean spirited like calling Benetti a dork and essentially forgetting he has overcome major physically disabilities that most of us can't imagine.

His speech for 30 minutes was the best Chicago sports speech ever. Gretzky, Brett Hull, Dennis Rodman, Eddie Vedder were there. Old teammates everywhere. Talked about the champioships of the Bears, Bulls, called the Sox, " my Chicago White Sox". Made jokes about his deceased father's sometimes restaurant failures. He just seemed so at ease and in his element. Got the crowd to boo the Redwings. That was hilarious. Greatest Chicago born athlete . Mt Caramel Southside legend !

Phillips and Quero of course.

Wasn't on broadcast.

Got his curve ball up too much. Good break not enough downward bite.

Mark Payton lead off walk. Sosa 4 pitch walk. Carlos Perez PH 4 pitch walk Ramos PH pops out to RFer just behind the infield. Quero liner down LF line Sox win 8-7 !

Moose very weak pop out to SS . Sheets GO 2nd base. Montgomery 4 pitch walk. Stassi deep FO to RCF gap.

Now I'm questioning myself if Schriff said koo or co ?

Cousin pitching to 5 Foul pop out to Sosa now playing 3rd on 3-2 pitch. Double by Solak into LF corner Cousin removed. No control. Decent looking curve. Jordan Mikel from Plainfield South gets a GO to himself. Fly out to warning track. Still scoreless.

Great over the shoulder running catch by Moose down the RF line. Comedy comment by fan earlier in the count when Zavala looked bad on a swing and miss and a guy yelled " I remember that swing." Pronouncing pitcher's name Koo seen.

Kowar pitching bottom 3 Stassi 0-2 to 3-2 took a couple of close pitches, then looking K on inside FB, Mendick 0-2 K swing at junk low and away, almost beats it out. Benintendi lazy shallow FO CF.
