The Chicago White Sox seem to be on a mission to find new, cruel, and unusual ways to lose baseball games. Tonight, that mission manifested itself in the form of a 15-7 loss to the New York Yankees.
Things started off so well.

The first seven outs for Dylan Cease are all strikeouts.

New plan: White Sox actually score runs and Dylan just strikes everyone out #analysis

Dylan Cease struck out 11 Yankees, but he also gave up six earned runs, because, as Janice very aptly observes, baseball is weird.
This Dylan Cease start has been both terrible and good at the same time. baseball is very very weird

Everyone’s favorite second baseman got the offense going, and then promptly got picked off of first base because nothing the White Sox do can be 100% positive.

My fav thing about leury is everyone will remember him in 10 years.

Giancarlo Stanton absolutely rakes, with or without the benefit of White Sox pitching not getting the memo.
The White Sox have a terminal illness in that they will always pitch to the guy who they absolutely should not pitch to in the worst situation

The White Sox were down 7-4 in the seventh inning when Yoán Moncada resurrected hope with a three-run bomb to tie the game.

Your team doesn’t have an international pop star hitting bombs? Could never be me

White Sox fans couldn’t revel in glory for long. After two quick outs in the eighth inning, the Yankees offense exploded with the intensity of a million suns. Do you remember that scene from The Princess Bride, where Westley talks about fighting his enemy “to the pain?” Yeah. The Yankees fought us to the pain.

I don’t think the Yankees got Tony La Russa’s memo about unwritten rules, because they just kept pummeling the White Sox pitching staff.

Well the good news is that the sox can still win if they score 284 runs pic.twitter.com/rBOzZjzzau

It was embarrassing, and fans were over it.
Everyone is immediately leaving this White Sox game lol pic.twitter.com/99rf6pqUf4

What more can be said?
White Sox fans paid money to see this

Remember the lockout? Let’s go back.

Sigh.
White Sox vs Yankees:

• I was promised good bullpen management when TLR was hired
• Yoan Moncada is sick
• Dylan Cease was both good and bad
• this team has the talent of a World Series team but the brains of a bottom feeder
• this may be a long series
