"If I have one memory of the game that will never leave me, it's the moment right after we clinched in 1983 when Tony (LaRussa) hugged me.  The damned thing meant so much to both of us and to be able to share it that way..."  -Sox third base coach Jim Leyland reflecting on his most cherished baseball memory

 WSI's Totally Biased GAME RECAP
August 17... Within Walking Distance
The Sox hit big in Texas, but the Rangers walked nine big times to beat the South Siders 9-8.
August 16...Oh, Nicky, You're So Fine
But Nicky Delmonico's 2-homer game, and a solid start by Carlos Rodon, can't hold up Jake Petricka's second consecutive meltdown; Dodgers walk off the Sox 5-4.
August 15...8th Inning Dooms Sox in Tinseltown
Miguel Gonzalez pitched solidly, Dodgers kick the door down on Sox bullpen in the 8th
August 12... Melky's Kansas City Knockout
James Shields starts another game that ends in a loss, as Melky Cabrera hits a 2-run homer to give the Royals a 5-4 win.
August 10... Late Inning Heroics
Rodon has another solid outing and Yoan Moncada dominates late.

 Totally Biased WSI Features!
72 Sox Where Are They Now
The 1972 White Sox thrilled the South Side, challenging for a championship just two years removed from 106 losses! Another WSI EXCLUSIVE!
Part 2: Sox and the Media
The second and final installment looking into the long strange trip between the Sox, Sox Fans, and the local media. A "bad neighborhood" filled with violent Sox Fans? Learn what started the myth and why it persists amongst those carrying their own agenda. WSI's Mark Liptak takes WSI's totally biased fans on an exhaustive review of key events and quotable quotes every Sox Fan should know.
Sox and the Media
Part I. What Sox media coverage came before 2005 and what has resulted in the time since our Sox won Chicago's first baseball championship in 8+ decades is a subject of great interest -- and sometimes anger -- for a very large number of Sox Fans. How do the fans, the players -- and yes, even members of the media -- recount the sordid history of our Sox and wider world observing their efforts, whether as disinterested parties or rabid partisans. WSI's Mark Liptak takes WSI's totally biased fans on an exhaustive review of key events and quotable quotes every Sox Fan should know.
A Second City Trophy
As lousy as the Sox season has already become, it promises to get worse now that the Sox have agreed to an ill-conceived trophy for "bragging rights" across the city's baseball fans. WSI's George Bova wonders what could possibly symbolize any better the futility, stupidity and incompetence of the Second City than creating such an award? No wonder it's sponsored by BP!
In Defense of Sox Hitting
A weak start the first week of the season has Sox Fans fretting unusually early! What conclusions can and can't be drawn after a 2-4 homestand for our 2010 Sox? WSI's George Bova notices a few trends that ought to reassure and cause some reflection, too.
