By Teddy Ballgame The ultimate supersub Wilkin Castillo got the September callup from the Cincinnati Reds, despite the fact that he batted only .246 at Triple A.

By The Cheat Brent Morel -- I wasn't thrilled with this pick based largely on the low walk-rate demonstrated by Morel in college. He quickly proved that he was too advanced for rookie-ball and settled in nicely with the first two in Kannapolis. While I didn't like the numbers on Morel, I could see what the...

By The Cheat Joe Crede was removed from the game with "back stiffness" and is listed as day-to-day. Juan Uribe replaced him, and had a big 2-out double in the 6th.

But on Sunday, White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski found a new way to get out of a rundown: Get tagged out, but brush up against a fielder who doesn't have the ball and fall down. Then the ump, thinking that you were a victim of interference, will call you safe. 1]

By Administrator In 1986, A’s rookie Mark McGwire hits his first major league home run off of Walt Terrell. In 1997, Boston’s Nomar Garciaparra singled twice to extend his hitting streak to 27 games, breaking the American League rookie record set by Guy Curtright of the Chicago White Sox in 1943.

By The Cheat Pierzynski fell to the ground pointing at Aybar, now nearly at second base, and Doug Eddings, who initially called him out, joined in the pointing soon after. Eddings had called interference. Pierzynski was awarded 3rd, Dye 1st, and the Sox still had just one out. On one play the Sox went from...

By Teddy Ballgame Once again Chicago put another crooked number on the board in the 5th. With a run already in, A.J. Pierzynski ripped a three run monster drive deep to right.

By Administrator In 1934, Red Sox pitcher Wes Ferrell hit two home runs to give Boston a 3-2 win over the Chicago White Sox in 12 innings… trailing 2-1 in the eighth, Ferrell hit a home run to tie the score and then, with two out in the 12th, he connected again for the game-winner.

By The Cheat If I was the type to draw drastic conclusions after one encouraging start--and I don't think I have to tell you that I'm not--I might say that Richard looked like he learned something from his first go around with the big club.

By Sarah Schorno It was the Sox Bowl Part II as the Red ones took on the White ones. And you know what happens when you put Red Sox in the mix with White Sox (besides all your shit turning pink).

By The Cheat Griffey is completely self-aware of his defensive shortcomings. In fact, it was the main reason for the holdup on the trade this morning.

Kyle Schassburger is a guest contributor to Southside Perspective. It’s official. Ken Griffey Jr. is a member of the Chicago White Sox. I must say that this trade is a little bit confusing.

The Cubs and White Sox started tonight as the Cubs prevailed, while the White Sox crapped the bed. The Sox took one on the chin and fell to the Twins 7-0 in the first game of the four game set. Mark Buehrle gave up two 2-run home runs in the fourth inning and the Sox were never able to recover.

By Leitch Last season the offense seemed pitiful despite some of the big bats in the lineup.

By The Cheat Elsewhere, Bartolo Colon apparently signed a minor league deal with the Red Sox, for reasons that escape me.

By The Cheat So here we sit, almost a full two years later. The White Sox farm system seems destined to be named the 29th best (2nd worst) in all of baseball. And thanks to some dubious extensions and pretty terrible middle relief signing, the only thing about the White Sox which could be considered Big Mar...
