brijames1957 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I wanted to be there so badly last night but my health issue just doesn't let me get to games easily anymore. But watching it from home I was so proud of the Sox fans who showed up loud and proud! We have always been the underdogs and get such an unfair bad rap from other fan bases. But the truth is Sox fans are just as loyal as any fan base in MLB. And last night the whole country saw that first hand. The park sounded electric. I just knew this team had too much heart to get swept. And I'm thrilled the faithful Sox fans get at least one more home playoff game to experience. 5 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Multiple players and Tony commented that starting with the 7th inning they couldn’t believe no one left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I have been to games with wild crowds, but I knew last night was extra special when the crowd started chanting “defense, defense” like a football game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the biggest crowd of the season, the concessions had the shortest line of the seasons since no one moved from their seats. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah in summer half the outfield you can see on the concourse. Mid inning we kept mentioning how crazy it was that it was Empty on the OF concourse. Was nice finally having all the vendors open, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 A lot of fun. We stood/sat by two guys who decided to boo multiple players/coaches when they announced everyone, don't be that person. If you don't like a player or a coach just don't cheer. Yes I understand Kimbrel has been bad or Garcia has had his ups and downs but booing them is low class IMO 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmmmbeeer Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 No doubt I'm biased, but that crowd blew every other crowd in this year's playoffs away. Boston's fans are fantastic but they don't keep at it non-stop like our fans did last night. Wainwright seemed to be in awe of the atmosphere, which speaks volumes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 The Bears winning got the lather going. The crowd was mostly 30-60 year old men that hate the Astros and love beer and White Sox baseball. Na Na Na Goodbye was amazing in a chilling kind of way as I have heard that played when the Sox were down 7-2 in the 7th and 2,500 were in the crowd, Sunday was what that song was for and wow was it loud and in sync. Fuck Altuve never got old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, yeah, Wainwright being in St Louis his whole career, he knows good crowds. It's true when you havent had something for a while, you definitely savor every moment when you get it back. Sox fans did that the other night. Absence makes the heart grow fonder ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can on the mlb app. Just go to Games at the top , then go to the schedule and put it back to Oct. 10 , click on the game and you will see condensed game and recap. Under those are "video" where it says FS1. That's the one to click. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
