Latest news and updates about the White Sox
William Bergolla Jr.’s season is over, practically before it restarted. The White Sox announced that Bergolla suffered a right fibular stress fracture during his first rehab game with the ACL White Sox, which cut it short after two plate appearances. He was plunked in one of those PAs, but it turns out the injury stemmed… The post White Sox Minor Keys: July 25, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .
1916 Facing just 28 batters in the game, Eddie Cicotte fired a one-hitter in defeating the Yankees, 2-0, in front of 6,000 at Comiskey Park. Two batters plays kept the game from perfection: Cicotte earned a 90 game score, tied for 76th-best in White Sox history. He was such an ace hurler, this 90 qualifies […]
Charlotte Knights 7, Norfolk Tides 6 (10 innings)This one was quite the nail-biter, deadlocked at five through regulation and both ghost runners scoring in the 10th. The difference for the Knights (54-47) came due to the fact that birthday boy Korey Lee (happy 28th, KL!) drove in two, not just one, runs with his single […]
For a moment, it looked as if Sean Burke was really going to be the star of the show again. To an extent, he was. A six-inning performance yielding just two earned runs is nothing to sneeze at. But when you put up an offensive performance like the White Sox did in tonight’s 4-1 loss […]
For five scoreless innings at Rate Field on Saturday night, the game was a question of which hard-throwing right-hander would crack first: Sean Burke or Hunter Brown? Instead, the second-straight galling top of the sixth inning against the Astros reminded that baseball is a team sport, and even a version of Burke that can reel off 10 strikeout in six innings of work is vulnerable without reliable defense. Or any run support. The post Astros 4, White Sox 1: Second-straight suspect sixth sin...
Third baseman Josh Jung went on the injured list with a right calf strain before Friday’s matchup against the Mariners. The Rangers recalled utilityman Josh Smith to add some infield depth. Jung was pulled from Tuesday’s contest against the White Sox after singling and coming around to score in the third inning. He did some […]
TONIGHT’S GAME: Tonight, the Astros and White Sox play the 2nd game of this 3-game series at Rate Field in Chicago…RHP Hunter Brown (1-1) starts for the Astros as he takes on White Sox RHP Sean Burke (7-4). ROAD WARRIORS: Tonight is the 2nd game of a 6-game road trip for the Astros, during which […]
We’re just going to pretend like that one never happened, right? The Sox held the Astros scoreless in seven of the nine innings they played yesterday, and allowed just one in one of the others. We can leave it at that, I think. At the very least, the Sox have the advantage of sending their […]
1954 In the first game of a twin bill at Boston, White Sox pitcher Jack Harshman set the franchise record by striking out 16 Red Sox. Harshman, a converted first baseman, was taught a “slip pitch” (a variation of a palm ball) by manager Paul Richards. Harshman got the win, 5-2. At the time, Harshman’s 16 Ks were two shy […]
Astros right-hander Spencer Arrighetti is heading to the injured list with right foot nerve irritation, the team announced. Reliever Bryan King is heading back to the big-league squad to take his spot. Arrighetti was pulled from yesterday’s outing after an erratic first inning. The White Sox sent all nine hitters to the plate and pushed […]
Good news: the Yankees acquired a future Cy Young Award winner as the Player To Be Named Later in a deal in 1984 that sent their 31-year-old veteran first baseman to the Chicago White Sox. Bad news: the Yankees traded said Cy Young winner away long before he won the greatest accolade of his career. […]
Good morning! With the unfortunate news of Kyle Teel's injury, the White Sox also lost perhaps their best shot at a catcher providing ten home runs for them on the season. No doubt this was front of mind for many of you when the news broke. As we sit entering Friday's slate of games, though, Drew Romo has five dingers and Edgar Quero has just two. Teel in 78 games last season socked eight home runs, so he really did seem up to the task of getting to double digits. Alas. The post Sporcle Sa...
The White Sox suffered a crushing loss after surrendering eight runs in the sixth inning, but their response will reveal whether this becomes something much worse.
MLB Pipeline released new top-30 lists for each organization, but the rollout is a little strange, at least on the White Sox’s side. The big hangup is that it doesn’t yet include draft picks because the signing deadline is Monday, so it seems like they could’ve just waited until Monday. Instead, Caleb Bonemer gets a… The post White Sox Minor Keys: July 24, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .
Understanding that the true White Sox prospect list is the yearly offseason South Side Sox Top 100 Prospects, the closest second you’ll find the MLB Pipeline Top 30, which is issued in the offseason and midseason after the draft. MLB’s updated list was issued yesterday (sans 2026 draft picks, who have yet to play a […]
While a regulation MLB game is nine innings, it can take just one inning to change the entire landscape of a game. Unfortunately for the White Sox, they were on the bad end of an inning that was more horrifying than the recent Backrooms movie. It was an odd game that had the good vibes […]
Cheers at Rate Field turned to boos and a stunned crowd of 28,657 could only shake their collective heads in disbelief as the Astros would erase a five-run deficit in defeating the White Sox by a score of 9-5. The night began inauspiciously enough. The White Sox would send all nine men to the plate […]
Through five innings, the White Sox had everything going for them: Davis Martin with a 5-0 lead and a reasonable amount of pitches, and the Astros warming up a fourth pitcher after Spencer Arrighetti left with a foot nerve issue after one ineffective inning. The next time they came to the plate, they somehow trailed by three. The post Astros 9, White Sox 5: Stunned in the sixth appeared first on Sox Machine .
For the first time in nearly two decades, both the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox have entered the second half of the season with legitimate playoff aspirations. While the Cubs entered the year expecting to compete for the National League Central, the White Sox have exceeded every preseason outlook after one of the worst […] The post Cubs, White Sox Both on Pace to Reach Playoffs for First Time Since 2008 appeared first on The Lead .
These are tense days ahead for the White Sox as the trade deadline nears; days full of speculation, annoyed denials from team officials, and a lot of conversation about maybe trading for a stopgap starting catcher. "Every year the deadline is a distraction for everybody, whether you are team that is buying or selling, there are implications for every single one of these players," said Will Venable. "Those are the types of conversations we are having; what’s the impact on the clubhouse in tho...
Coming out of the All-Star break neck-and-neck with the Cleveland Guardians, the Chicago White Sox knew they had to hit the ground running. With two road series on deck against the Toronto Blue Jays and the Texas Rangers, winning each respective series was all that mattered and the White Sox did exactly that. Thanks to […]
TONIGHT’S GAME: The Houston Astros (50-54) begin a 3-game series tonight vs. the Chicago White Sox (54-47) at Rate Field.

In a season filled with surprises on the field, the Chicago White Sox sprung another one at Rate Field, adding sushi to the concessions menu in celebration of Japanese slugger Munetaka Murakami. For a fanbase that loves the aroma of polish sausages and onions on the grill, this new food item may be an odd addition, but it’s an attempt from White Sox marketing to continue their outreach in hopes of extending the team’s fandom. “With the Dodgers having Shohei Ohtani, they’ve really become Japa...
Billy Carlson is still searching for his first professional homer, partially because a thumb injury cost him a month and a half of his pursuit, but the combination of the muted impact and the absence caused him to fall out Baseball America’s top-100 list back in May. He hasn’t yet resurfaced there, but he only… The post White Sox Minor Keys: July 23, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .
