The Sox ( 27 / 84 ) have 3 games v Division rivals the Twins ( 59 / 48 ) before 3 against the A's ( 45 / 65 ).

That'd get to 23 and be tied 3rd all time and the worst in majors since 1961.

Come on Sox!

Just read that Oakland played Taylor Swift's "22" as the Sox starting lineup was announced

[wenchbarwer]

And just like that, the White Sox counter starts off again!

....and Grifol gets sacked.

Fair enough, too. Had the chance to go into a tie for third all-time if they didn't win the other day

Big congrats to Booney's ChiSox.

With a record of 31-100, it's now the worst record through 131 games in the last 108 years.

The Chicago White Sox lose their 107th game of the season tying the Franchise record set in 1970.

And now they have September to play.

The Sox lose game 108 today.

At the Sox park ( Guaranteed Rate Field ) bay 108 is a party vibe, #108ing is a term the locals use whenever they're out on the gas and having a brew with mates. As such loss 108 is proving to be a social media landslide of #108ingfor108

Is there a bay 119 at Adelaide Oval? Asking for a friend

From Twitter:

Zack Greinke had a career .336 slugging percentage.
The 2024 Chicago White Sox are slugging .338.

For the uninitiated, Zack Greinke was a pitcher. A good hitting pitcher, but a pitcher all the same.

The ChiSox are an actual baseball team.

Loss 109 in coming.

With 22 games to go we have 6 games against AL West bottom placed 57-80 LA Angels. We might get a win or two there. Might.

On track for 120+ loss season. The 1962 Mets lost 120 games.

Rookies.

Stiff on the '62 Mets....in 1961 they didn't even exist!

And they beat the O's today.
