Man being 4 back going into the series would be disappointing. Winning 2/3 only gains you a game.

Sox had/have to sweep either way. What sucks with the game today is the Guardians know they’re leaving Chicago in first place no matter what. That’s got to be a good feeling.

In some ways, winning 2/3 gains you nothing. You gain a game in the standings but Cleveland gains the tiebreaker.

No other way to put it but the Sox need a sweep, which is going to be very hard to do but if they do, 1 game out while holding the tie breaker with 12 games left after the Cleveland series is very much doable. Any other result and it's pretty much over unless Cleveland falls apart, which isn't very likely. 

 

Sigh

Also sucks it's likely Tony will still be in Chicago when the team plays tomorrow.

2022 White Sox:

  1. 12-3 .800 Miguel Cairo - Tony Gawn
  2. 63-65 .492 Tony La Russa Manager
  3. 1-3 .250 Miguel Cairo - Tony in Person Day of Game (8/31, 9/11, 9/13, 9/14)

Be honest, does anyone expect the Sox offense to do anything at all against Civale/McKenzie/Bieber? 

Inexplicably, the Sox got 6 off of him earlier in the year.

Once you factor in Elvis' arrival, Second Half Eloy, and the Cairo Effect, I expect we'll have at least a dozen.

The Guardians offense hasn't been good all season and it's been even worse (somehow) during their hot streak over the last month. They shouldn't feel great about scoring off Cease or Lynn either, to be fair.

I wonder what Tony's career pct. is managing the Sox.
