Chicago White Sox Posted September 1, 2024 Author Share Posted September 1, 2024 All that being said, it’s wild that we once went from having a quartet of Thomas, Konerko, Ordonez, & Lee at the traditional power positions to Vaughn, Sheets, Fletcher, & Benintendi.

greg775 Posted September 1, 2024 Share Posted September 1, 2024 Wow the Mets had a pitcher go 7 innings. Holy bleep. That's unheard of in modern baseball.
