GDT 8/2/19 Chicago White Sox (Nova) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Vargas)

[growe]

What was most impressive to me was the way Vince charged the ball, timed the hop, transferred the ball from his glove to his throwing hand all while getting his feet ready for an immediate release. If you didn't know better, you would assume that he was an above average defensive outfielder. It was textbook and a beautiful thing to see!

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Fulmer injured himself running to first. New pitcher will be Osich

[LoneStarPhan]

Another pitcher with ERA over 5 at 5.66

[BostonRoss]

Vince also is hitting better than some of our position players.

[LoneStarPhan]

Kingery down swinging a balls for strike two and strike three.

Incredible how the offense struggles against multiple pitchers who have not done well this season.

[Patchmk88]

Kapler should still be fired.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Give Vince credit, he almost threw out another runner at home. Don’t think replay will reverse it.

[Patchmk88]

I mean great effort and all but this is pathetic and embarrassing

[Phanatical]

Definitely a game you want to win. Heat of a wild-card race. Unique circumstances. Exciting though it was, we will remember this game as the odd time that our outfielder threw a pitch that was roped into LF, fielded by one of our starting pitchers, who threw a runner out at the plate. Got a 2nd chance. Failed. Weird game.

[LoneStarPhan]

After the visit to the mound, it looked like they wanted to walk Anderson to move the go ahead run into scoring position.
