That would be an exciting conclusion to the 2024 regular season.  But, the American League Central still wouldn't get any national respect.

Judge will have 87 HR by then but Bobby Witt will have the last laugh.

Actually great pitch there to induce the DP.

And quick inning

You heard it here first:

A. J. Pierzynski is the next White Sox manager. 

Hope he is a major league manager ...

That's a good call though ...

[AceWrigley]

A.J. as manager . . . hmmm.  Wonder how many people earlier in his career saw A.J. and thought that guy has manager written all over him.  😀

[Patzky]

More HBP junk :(

Who do you think the next Twins manager will be?   I certainly would be willing to give Pierzynski a shot at managing the Twins starting tomorrow.

Agree….. begs the question, anyone know what the record is for manager ejections in a season?

If the FO ( if they aren't fired first ) was forced to fire Rocco by the owners to shake things up it would be AAA manager gardenhire

That one I don't mind, Santana didn't feel that, just grazed the jersey.

So.. 'blue' right by him?

[Parfigliano]

Hopefully Ryan in the 7th

[Parfigliano]

How can Lee still have a non-fitting helmet

[USAFChief]

Boston up on Texas 9-5 in the 6th. 

If we're tracking scores, that seems to me the most important one.

Mm we need him to stay healthy all season. Zebby getting rocked in the AAA tonight.. think seeing him is a stretch this season.

[TwinsCD]

With the exception of Lewis, the bats have been pretty sleepy so far.  Against anyone else but the Chisux, that would likely be a concern tonight.

[USAFChief]

Ryan is out for the 7th

[jkcarew]

When all your rivals are trouncing real clubs, and your team is laboring against the White Sox.

There are a few truly good teams in the AL this year.

[Patzky]

Nuff, Joe.

[Parfigliano]

Ryan gets too many foul balls

[Patzky]

Guess Alcala was the correct call.

[Parfigliano]

That strike 3 Alcala pitch is the pitch Ryan needs

[Patzky]

Still would like a couple more runs here.

Baltimore is stacked. Yankees face under .500 teams for the next calendar month so they'll be right back into the conversation. Cleveland, when does luck become a trend? Because they've been "lucky" for 4 months. 

[TwinsCD]

And that's why my hands go near my back pockets when I'm behind the plate.  It only takes one time of feeling like you broke your forearm before you change your stance.

Seat brag! 

[Vanimal46]

I don't have a lot of memories of the 2003 Detroit Tigers... The 2024 White Sox is the worst assembled team I've seen. It looks historically bad for them.
