Had the volume off at work, but the White Sox have the worst, most biased announcers in MLB.

Asencio's body language on the bench after he got tattooed in the 9th looked like a guy that new he would be heading back to AAA very soon.

Sucked having to listen to Hawk Harrelson on the call. But better than no TV. Good win, without using anyone of importance in the pitching staff (though I fully expect Hagadone to be a 7th innin guy soon).

Very AAA feel win with McCallister and Hagadone!

I totally agree with this assessment.

Like what I have seen out of Hagadone. Fastball sitting around 94-95 today from the left side, definitely has the stuff of a late inning shut down reliever. His biggest problem in the minors was control, if he is throwing strikes he is very tough on lefties and righties. Hope to see CC Lee up soon to replace either Asencio or Wheeler.

Glad I didn't have to listen to that. Great to hear we got the win, and great to hear Hagadone had another solid outing. There is no way he is going back to Columbus when Raffy Perez comes back. It'll be interesting to see what they do with R. Perez, Sipp, and Hagadone.

Not going to lie, I think there is a pretty good chance that we could win out.

No, no and no.

Blatant homerism is a huge pet peeve of mine, even on local broadcasts. Not to mention they are simulcast on WGN America often.

Thank you. I can take a bit, because when you cover only 1 team all the time...its just inevitable. But he is SO bad. Actively rooting against other teams and saying "good guys and bad guys" etc is just way to far for a professional broadcaster. The fact he is syndicated/simulcast throughout America makes it even worse. Needs to tone it back, imo.

Its gotten progressively worse to the point where is insufferable. I'm not a huge Sox fan, but its bad.

Honestly, we are lucky around Cleveland...we have great announcing. Sucks that Tait is gone from broadcasting, but really....the only shitty one we have is Underwood...who is god awful.
