Expand When was the last time we saw Robert bunt? Let's be serious here, he'd probably wear that 102 MPH fastball in the face. The biggest turd drop by LaRussa is not PH for him earlier in the game after he hit that the DP with one arm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lpneck Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 I was thinking this is the worst, most embarrassing loss since Beckham dropped the pop up in the middle of the infield in the 9th against the Mets in 2013. But then I remembered the Sox actually came back and won that game. So we are talking pre-2013. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Tony La Russa still needs one win before year end to end the season with an over .500 record with the White Sox over his ten years. White Sox: 4 GB for AL Central lead (Add 1/2 game since they currently lose the tiebreaker vs. Cleveland) 5 GB for AL #3 Wild Card (Currently ahead of Seattle 2-1 for head to head tiebreaker) Lance Lynn deserved bone-in ribeye tonight, was served chop steak by his teammates after he left after six strong innings.
