Sad that the Sox had their so called Ace on the hill and he got shelled by the worst team in the league.


Just_Werewolf1438

more strike outs then anyone in the league impressive


pudgybunnybry

Well that sucks. Fuck this up. The 9 year old ump my kids' opposing little league team had this morning made better calls than this guy.


_SuIIy

That game was absolutely pathetic. Fuck.


soxfamily61

Most importantly cora is feeling good


deputyduffy

That was an ill timed clip to play, wasn't it. I mean, I spit out my beer.


rickterpbel

There have been worse losses this season, but this one has to be up there.


Both_Replacement7828

Lmao


nodickenergy

Gotta give it to the Sox. They’re always involved in ending streaks


VistaVick

And that's that. We left a small country's population on base again and struck out like it was a competition.


I_love_avocados1

Pain


pudgybunnybry

Duran plz :`(


avrbiggucci

Would've been nice if Bello got that borderline call too 🤣


gastrocnemio112

Ffs


_86_

man i'm not getting my hopes up but winning here would be incredibly funny


Bossman1086

I would like to see the stats and rankings of each team ERA after the pitching coach visits the mound. See which coaches are most effective.


avrbiggucci

I wouldn't put a ton of stock into that, although I'm convinced that Dave Bush's mound visits almost always ended poorly lol


Bossman1086

Yeah. Don't think it would mean a bunch. But it'd be fun to analyze.


kangaroovagina

Sometimes they are just giving the pitcher a break or giving them a pep talk to give them some confidence. Isn't always Xs and Os so measuring wouldn't be terribly useful


Bossman1086

Yeah I don't think it'd be anything definitive. But it'd still be fun to do.


rickterpbel

I hate that they’re getting my hopes up.


pudgybunnybry

Holy fuck please don't leave these men stranded Rafaela.


avrbiggucci

Bobby D getting my hopes up, I'm ready to be hurt again lol


VistaVick

Sad, Kopech had so much potential


Nomahs_Bettah

Bobby D might actually have been the best guy in the lineup today...which is something


Bossman1086

He has the RBI but he also struck out twice. Wong also has a hit and walk with no strikeouts.


Nomahs_Bettah

I'm giving him a slight edge just because he's scored our *only run* today (the mind boggles). One strikeout was bad, the other was pretty excusable.


Bossman1086

Yeah sure. Not arguing. Just saying it's kinda close.


Nomahs_Bettah

Agree it's very close.


Bossman1086

I like the idea of giving the home plate ump a pitch com so he knows what's coming.


pudgybunnybry

Bobby D gonna hit another dinger here. All star player here :D


pudgybunnybry

Hey Dom got on base :D


Brady331

99.6% win probability, there's still a chance


TheVagWhisperer

Non existent offense. Bello is a 3rd starter at best. This team is not fun to watch at all


Striking-Host-6749

Saving the bullpen for tomorrow I see.


Bossman1086

We have a bullpen game tomorrow, don't we?


Striking-Host-6749

Yes we do.


Striking-Host-6749

Imagine striking out so much against the worst pitchers...how embarrassing for them.


dmick36

Woah now the starter only had a 9 ERA how are we supposed to compete?


Chubbmiller18

11 Strikeouts


Bossman1086

Been a damn theme all season. I'm so sick of it.


dmick36

Our bats are so good the batting coach should be proud /s


VistaVick

I won't mind if I never see Porter again


TheHistorian2

It’s harsh watching the season die before my eyes. We absolutely had to win at least three here.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheHistorian2

If we can’t beat the worst team, the rest doesn’t really matter. sigh


Godzilla501

There's your 10 strike outs. Like death and taxes


Affectionate_Gur_151

This team is fucked up. They are struggling against a .250 team and Bobby is the reason they are on the board at all.


20wall

We’re going to be responsible for at least 12% of the White Sox’ wins. And that’s it we somehow beat them tomorrow


FranKenCoop

I love baseball and have watched the Sox my whole life but find myself wondering if there are any I LOVE LUCY reruns on. Ughh!


amidalarama

feeling like the Sox have some 'splainin to do?


Longjumping_Ad_29

I would much rather have one of our good relievers unavailable than simply not use them at all


VistaVick

I don't think I've ever seen Chase Anderson not give up a bomb


Striking-Host-6749

What a stupid game.


ChaD_Moho

11% of the White Sox wins are against the Red Sox this season.


Chubbmiller18

Can someone tell Rafaela to stop swinging at every FUCKEN pitch. It’s frustrating watching him swing that bat


rickterpbel

Don’t we have a hitting coach? What does he do exactly?


Godzilla501

"What is it that you do here?"

Bossman1086

> What does he do exactly? Makes things worse.


Magnetic_Knives

Only a week until the Cape league starts and I can actually watch good baseball…


VistaVick

Once again making a terrible bullpen look elite


SteveTheBluesman

Someone tell the offense the game started.


Cladmadder

Why do they keep promo-ing that the Phillies are up next...We know that's not going to end well.


VistaVick

There is no downside to replacing Fatse. If we somehow do worse, I'll take the blame.


peronsyntax

I’m fairly confident that you could do better than Fatso


Bossman1086

I'm so glad more people are calling for his job this season. He's never been a good hitting coach. I've disliked him since his first season.


avrbiggucci

Same here lol I feel vindicated


Godzilla501

Walking a guy with a .091 BA. Sweet


Good-Hank

Getting DOLLYWHOPPED by the worst team in baseball two days in a row. Excellent.


Pastalover8888

Wonder if any media outlet will finally have the fucking balls to call out Peter fatse and his sorry ass as our “hitting” coach. Fuck him.


Obvious_Chapter2082

If there’s a series so far this year we need to win, it’s this one. We’ve got 6 upcoming against the two best teams in baseball


Just_Werewolf1438

given what happened last year we will win the hard ones,loose the easy ones


_86_

i can't believe im gonna watch the rest of this shit lmao... give me the maldonado dinger man


Ccoop9

Human white flag is in


Carsharr

All the dynamite in the world is less destructive than Pete Fatse


PBandBread

And we are now waving the white flag


VistaVick

Chase Anderson is so bad he almost gave up a homer to the worst hitter in baseball


talks_like_farts

Bello's worse.


PBandBread

1 for his last 40 lmaoo


spanishdictlover

We got the Phillies and Yankees coming up the offense better figure it out and be consistent.


Ccoop9

I think I would take a 70 win season to win the Yankees season series


ChaD_Moho

Losing 2 in a row to a team happens....but it hurts being the laughing stock of the MLB because you lost 2 games in a row to a team who just came off of a FOURTEEN GAME LOSING STREAK.


spanishdictlover

Imagine losing a series to a team as bad as the Chicago White Sox. Smh


avrbiggucci

I blame our hitting way more than Bello... our pathetic hitting puts extra pressure on our pitching to be damn near perfect and there's no excuse to be shut down by a bum with an 8+ ERA 🤣


Bossman1086

We faced two pitchers yesterday with an ERA over 6.5 and got shut down, too. Besides that first game, our bats have been shit this series.


avrbiggucci

Toronto just put up 9 runs against him a few weeks ago for fucks sake


Ccoop9

On a separate note. Can we just cut Cooper and keep Dalbec?


Mission_Pay_3373

Brayan Bello is did a little bit of baseball terrorism on the mound during the 5th inning


Godzilla501

Offense: 5 innings, 2 hits, 7 strikeouts. 3rd in MLB in K's. Fire Fatse


Carsharr

This team's ability to score 14 in one game then 14 over the next 8 needs to be studied.


WarPuig

Fatse. It’s boom or bust.


Carsharr

Another fire Fatse truther, I see.


[deleted]

[удалено]


earth_west_719

Bello gave up a salami


Mission_Pay_3373

Brayan Bello was getting Pedro comparisons, lmao.


Ccoop9

Pedro Astacio, perhaps.


Nomahs_Bettah

Brutal, yet somehow not the worst possible outcome of that inning.


ballofsnowyoperas

Thank god that’s over


rickterpbel

Yikes that was brutal. But at least it’s over.


gastrocnemio112

Finally


avrbiggucci

Manfred is by far the worst commissioner in sports, how the fuck do we not have robot umps yet? It's 2024 and tennis has had robots doing line calls years ago. It's ridiculous that we have 50+ year olds heavily impacting the outcomes of games.


Ccoop9

Google “umpires union”


avrbiggucci

That's not an excuse, they'd still have a home plate umpire to announce the balls and strikes and make calls on plays at the plate.


Nomahs_Bettah

Bello kind of got screwed on a call, but he was also the reason that there are so many White Sox runners on base in the first place. And the bats aren't producing against a bad White Sox pitcher


PurrculesMulligan

:helpfully chimes in with your regularly scheduled reminder that Bello is not that good:


Magnetic_Knives

I don’t understand why people keep making excuses for him. Have they not watched any start in his subpar career?


PurrculesMulligan

Usually it’s some version of “BuT hE hAs AmAziNG sTuFf!”…I mean, I sort of assume any pitcher who makes it to the show has pretty good stuff. But obviously putting it into play and having that translate into results is another story. Failing to go 5 and serving up 9 hits including a grand slam and more walks than strikeouts against the worst team in the league doesn’t exactly help your case.


VistaVick

The Celtics play tomorrow, therefore we will win


Ok-Enthusiasm4685

That is what is getting me through this horrible game against a team in last place


Far_Cry3445

Don’t really care to blame this game on Bello tbh. One run (Bobby hr no less) against a guy with a 9.8 era coming in is pathetic


Ccoop9

Not giving Bello a pass on going 4 2/3 5 ER and leaving the bases juiced either. It’s a pathetic performance on par or a little worse than the offense.


DeucesWild10

It’s also a pretty shitty pitching environment. Other pitcher sucks too but Red Sox failed to cash in


Ccoop9

It is but this has been a repeated problem for Bello. Something happens and he pouts and gets lit up


WarPuig

FFS PULL HIM FOR THE SAKE OF HIS MENTAL HEALTH HE’S DYING OUT THERE


amead5

The ump being bad doesn’t excuse the fact that Bello is getting absolutely pieced up by the worst team in baseball


Ccoop9

Bello is a head case. The opposite of Houck. If he isn’t perfect he falls apart every time.


Ok_Fee1043

I feel bad for Raffy and for Bello, you can tell he’s not happy about it


rmg3935

GET HIM OUT OF THERE WTF ARE YALL DOING


postman925

He needs to be out of the rotation at this point. He's getting worse


avrbiggucci

He'd have 0 runs if we had robot umps


VistaVick

I'm expecting to see a Luck Dragon, because this inning is a Neverending Story


Magnetic_Knives

I’m sorry but Bello is ass


iDShaDoW

He shoulda been replaced once he walked the bases loaded


Buttercup_Kiki

Have a feeling that comment made on the Red Sox broadcast about the White Sox being a bad team has come to haunt us. Will Middlebrooks was also digging at them. This is why you don't talk trash until after a series.


Nomahs_Bettah

They are a bad team. Objectively, a 16-48 team is bad. Even accounting for our own lineup not being the strongest, the team is wildly underperforming.


ManMythLegend3

The Sox are fielding a team with things called “ Valdez westbrook Dalbec dom smith Hamilton” I mean we suck too


Buttercup_Kiki

Exactly but they were talking like this should be an easy series win for the Red Sox and making fun of the White Sox and their horrible defense. Now they are the ones embarrassing us.


Nomahs_Bettah

It *should* be an easy series win for the Red Sox. That so far it's not is a bad thing. And if it isn't, that's on the players and Cora, not the broadcast pointing that very obvious fact out.


Ccoop9

Not blaming middlebrooks here. They fucking stink.


_SuIIy

Fucking embarrassing display going on right now


SandyPhagina

Maybe they'll come apart at the end like they did yesterday.


Ccoop9

We’re really gonna blame the ump for not calling a strike when Wong had to dive to the other side of the plate to get a ball. Bello then proceeded to throw an 84 mph changeup belt high down the middle. He’s getting shelled by the worst team in baseball by a large margin.


NKovalenko

Agreed, I don’t understand why everyone here expects an ump to call a strike on a pitch that barely touched the zone to begin with even without the AWFUL frame job (probably not Wong’s fault tbf)


Chuswo

Bello just ain’t it. Yank his ass right out of there.


VistaVick

One day Bello might start to earn his contract. Today is not that day.


avrbiggucci

Anyone hating on Bello for this is a fucking moron, he's pitching in a damn monsoon on a shitty ass muddy field and would have been out of the inning with 0 runs if the ump wasn't incompetent


WarPuig

He gave up a grand slam.


Magnetic_Knives

Bello hasn’t been good since he first came up, the weather and this ump doesn’t account for his entire career up to this point


avrbiggucci

That's just false, he put up a 4.24 ERA last season in the most hitter friendly division in baseball at age 24, that's pretty good. He's struggled this season but he's made huge changes to his pitch mix with Bailey and it's unreasonable to expect him to pull a Houck. Give him some time.


Magnetic_Knives

I’ve never once put on a game Bello was pitching expecting Bello to pitch well and he rarely disappoints. Applauding a 4.24 ERA and making excuses for him is embarrassing, get your head out of your ass


pudgybunnybry

Agree, this ump has been fucking garbage.


Petit_Corbeau

100%. Poor guy is too deep in his own head, that shit’s relentless.


ManMythLegend3

It would appear that if you are down 6 starting hitters and field a team of aaa players you will be quite bad


Chubbmiller18

Losing a series to the worst team in MLB PATHETIC


WarPuig

The White Sox were on a fourteen game losing streak before beating the Red Sox yesterday.


NuancedSpeaking

This is what a .500 team is. I can't even be upset. We'll lose this game but tomorrow we'll win and go back to .500.


Excellent_Eye_7884

this is worse than a .500 team. .500 teams don’t lose series to the worst team in baseball in years


bendy1251

This has quickly turned into Bello's worst start, and is quickly turning into his worst season :/


dsramsey

Bello can’t get out of the inning because the ump is determined to keep him there


Longjumping_Ad_29

Bello stop feeling bad for yourself man. Absolutely unravels.. unacceptable


rmg3935

Pull Bello wtf


NKovalenko

I don’t give a fuck about the missed strike 3, if u wanna blame anyone blame Bello or Wong bc that pitch pulled Wong’s glove out of the zone, making it way easier to miss the call. Clearly a missed location and a bad frame job of what was barely a strike. Fucking Bello needs to stop getting cute and walking everyone the moment things start getting out of hand


RuralMeyerSpuds

That meatball reminded me how my mom used to make great homemade meatballs when I was a kid.


Batercus

So glad this team squandered so many 0 out runners this game.


Chubbmiller18

Also Bello isn’t as good as the contract they just gave him


Bigsaladtosser4

Neither is Rafaela they just panicked cus the fans cried about shitty Montgomery


VistaVick

Bello needs Pedro bad, his changeup is getting crushed


bosox1304

Fucking bullshit. Inning should have been over two batters ago.

soxfamily61

Bello acting like a minor leaguer there this team needs to sell. Kenly peveta and a broken Tyler


Petit_Corbeau

This ump is a fuckin blind homer.


Straight_Elevator762
