Spare Parts: For better or worse, it’s mustache month for the White Sox

September finally matters for the White Sox

The final day of August was steamy in Chicago: a stormy morning that gave way to rain interspersed with muggy stillness and a hot evening made noisy by the mournful lust of the last cicadas.

Chicago’s Crowded September: What the Bears, Cubs, White Sox and Sky Are All Playing For at Once

Chicago does not usually get a month like this. The city’s sports calendar tends to run in shifts. Baseball fades, football takes over, hockey and basketball arrive once the leaves turn.

The idea of four or five Chicago teams mattering in the same three-week window has [...] The post Chicago’s Crowded September: What the Bears, Cubs, White Sox and Sky Are All Playing For at Once appeared first on ChiCitySports .

The White Sox (73-65) rebounded from Monday’s rough loss to the Astros (70-69), defeating Houston behind South Side ace Sean Burke. The righthander earned his eighth win of the season.

White Sox 5, Astros 1: Timely hitting supports Sean Burke’s gutsy outing

Two major qualms people have about the Chicago White Sox lately: Starting pitchers needing to find a way to go deeper into games and the offense needing to capitalize with runners in scoring position. Last night’s loss was a mix of both when Anthony Kay was knocked out in the fifth inning, and the offense left 14 runners on base.  Tonight, thanks to two-out base hits from Andrew Benintendi, Colson Montgomery, and Randal Grichuk, the White Sox offense found a way to score five runs. That was ...

After falling flat in Monday night’s series opener, the White Sox will aim to improve their situational hitting in an effort to provide run support for their ace Sean Burke.
