Sox Machine

Stream date: 8/5/2021

Josh and Jim recap the Kansas City series which featured a White Sox offense that continues to post inconsistent results. As the White Sox are 9-11 since the All-Star Break and averaging only 3.8 runs per game during that stretch, is this recent play a reason to be concerned?

Maybe a trip to Wrigley Field will help the White Sox offense break out as they play the first of the Crosstown Classic series in 2021.
