Chicago White Sox Today | 2 Minute News | The Daily News Now!

Chicago White Sox host Pittsburgh Pirates in a heated opener of a three-game series, with the Sox riding a strong home record and potent offense while the Pirates bring power-hitting depth despite a rough road trip. Both teams are hot offensively, led by Colson Montgomery and Miguel Vargas for Chicago, and Brandon Lowe and Esmerlyn Valdez for Pittsburgh. With identical ERAs and solid run production, this is a clash of styles — but both squads face injury woes, including key pitchers and catchers sidelined, adding intrigue to an already compelling matchup.

Billy Meyer became the only White Sox position player to ever get a hit in a single plate appearance—singing, then getting picked off—in 1913, before going on to manage and have his number retired. In 1905, Frank Smith tossed a no-hitter against Detroit, leading to a 15-run win—the largest margin in a no-hitter for decades—and later threw another no-hitter. Doc White stunned Cleveland with a 10-inning one-hitter in 1903, boasting five such gems in his career while also moonlighting as a dentist and umpire. In 1967, the Sox briefly led the AL in a four-way tie after an extra-inning thriller but fizzled out to finish fourth. And in 2008, Jim Thome crushed a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 15th to beat the Angels, setting a record for the longest September game between two first-place teams.

The White Sox are flying high this season, led by an unexpected wizard: injured pitcher Mike Vasil. Though sidelined with a Tommy John recovery, his presence—complete with a “magic wand” giveaway and wizard hats after homers—has become the team’s good luck charm. Even GM admits it wasn’t on his bingo card. Vasil, who joked it’s like Seinfeld, showed up to celebrate with teammates after games instead of heading straight to his hotel. Fans are buzzing, and while he may not play, some are already tossing MVP votes his way. His return is eagerly awaited—and so is more magic.

Sam Antonacci delivered a game-changing performance for the Chicago White Sox, crushing three doubles and scoring twice in a 10-1 demolition of the Minnesota Twins. His most dramatic hit—a double that deflected off an infielder’s glove—sent him streaking to second base and ignited the offense. Randal Grichuk and Kyle Teel added home runs, while the bullpen dominated with 15 strikeouts and just one walk, led by Hagen Smith’s career-high three-inning shutout. Manager Venable called Smith’s outing “really special,” praising his pitch efficiency as key to the win. With the Sox now 2.5 games ahead in the division, every game feels like a playoff—and they’re showing why they’re contenders.

The White Sox are on fire, leaning hard into their rookies for a stunning 10-1 win over the Twins. Sam Antonacci blasted three doubles and two RBIs, while Hagen Smith dominated the mound with three perfect innings and four strikeouts. The bullpen’s collective effort pushed the Sox into a 2.5-game lead in the AL Central and solidified their spot as the 2 seed — meaning a Wild Card bye. The offense exploded in the 8th, capped by Kyle Teel’s three-run homer, as Murakami, Grichuk, and others fueled the rout.

The White Sox traded for veteran Tommy Pham hoping his playoff experience would spark this young team — but his debut ended in a groundout, and now he’s sidelined with a calf strain. He joins a growing list of injured recent acquisitions, including Bart, whose injury may end his season. With Pham out, the Sox called up catcher Edgar Quero, who’s had a rocky year but recently shown flashes of promise — though manager hesitation could limit his playing time as they navigate the final stretch.

The White Sox are firing on all cylinders this season, earning a prime Sunday night TV slot and showing real grit with young players stepping up. Manager Will Venable praises their attitude and hustle, while the pitching staff stays flexible—Bryan Hudson opens games, Sean Burke’s start gets pushed back, and rest is being prioritized ahead of an off day. With a two-game AL Central lead, GM Chris Getz is eyeing deep-into-game arms to preserve the bullpen, even as Luis Castillo works through mechanical tweaks. A setback hit when Tommy Pham went on the injured list with a calf strain, but the Sox quickly called up catcher Edgar Quero to fill the gap—with his right-handed bat, he’s seen as the perfect fit against lefties.
