Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…
“Still, if you’re in the NLCS, your chances of winning the World Series are at least 25%, right? Red Sox – Though they cooled off in the second half, the reality is this Red Sox team is too talented to miss the playoffs. Dodgers – The Dodgers are a great team and perhaps the best team in baseball. Blue Jays – I think the Rays, Red Sox, and Yankees will make the playoffs. Tigers – Detroit’s rebuild seems to be about 2 years behind the White Sox so starting next year they could be pretty scary.”
“The Chicago White Sox are finally in the playoffs for a second straight season. The Chicago White Sox won the West in 1993. In 2021, the White Sox finally changed all of that, making the playoffs in back-to-back years for the first time ever and winning a rare division title on top of that. The 2005 White Sox were World Champions.”
“1965 The White Sox set the franchise record by hitting their 15th consecutive solo home run. The breakdown saw Ken Berry with five solo home runs, Don Buford, Romano and Pete Ward with a pair each and John, Floyd Robinson, Moose Skowron and Bill Voss with one solo home run. Pitcher Tommy John hit the last home run in the streak. The run continued until a game on this date was played in New York.”
““It was one of those nights where I had four pitches working,” Cease said. “You are looking at one of the strongest parts of our club,” La Russa said. Cease was dealing. We pitched them very well.”
“10-day IL RHP Ryan Tepera (right index finger laceration) Expected return: Sept. 24) 60-day IL RHP Evan Marshall (right forearm soreness) Expected return: TBD Marshall was getting good results during his injury rehab with Triple-A Charlotte, seeing swings and misses with increasing velocity. ROSTER MOVES Sept. • All White Sox transactions INJURY UPDATES Day to day None.”
