White Sox 2022 Schedule Is Out!

This afternoon, the 2022 MLB schedule was released, and it was full of treats to contemplate as you envision 2021 World Series champs wear showing up in ballparks from coast-to-coast.

And the White Sox are indeed leaning hard into the bicoastal next year, as the club draws the NL West as its interleague foes. With very strong teams in San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego, the timing couldn’t be better! (OK, patsies in Colorado and Arizona help restore the buzz.) The White Sox end their season in San Diego, the first time in franchise history the team is ending its schedule in a National League park.

The crosstown series is a two-and-two, played in ... May. No, they are not exhibitions, but real games counting in the standings, snowflakes optional.

And the season opens at home, in March, vs. the Twins.

Take a quick peek. We’ll have a more fun review of the schedule up later on, but this whets your 2022 whistle for now.

What the hell, here’s the full, copyedited White Sox release:
