White Sox set a franchise record for most losses in single season on Sunday

>>> THE HOME WAS NOTHING BUT -- THERE WAS NOTHING SWEET. THERE WE GO. THERE WAS NOTHING SWEET ABOUT BEING AT HOME FOR THE WHITE SOX. THEY GET SHUT OUT @#BY THE METS THEY GO 0-10 ON THE HOME STAND. NO RUNS, TWO HITS. CROCHET DID STRIKE OUT THE FIRST SEVEN BATTERS OF THE GAME, WHICH WAS INCREDIBLE. HE GIVES UP ONE RUN, AND HE TAKES THE LOSS. THE WHITE SOX LOSE THEIR 107th GAME A FRANCHISE RECORD, @#AND THERE'S 24 GAMES LEFT TO PLAY. HERE WITH OZZIE GUILLEN, I'M CHUCK GARFIEN. THE THINGS I HAVE ON THIS PIECE OF PAPER -- >> DO ME A FAVOR, SIGN IT FOR ME. I WANT TO KEEP IT. >> YOU WANT TO KEEP THIS? >> AND @#BRING IT TO MY HOUSE. I KNOW -- >> I WILL SIGN IT. THERE IT IS. FOR OZZIE GUILLEN @#HOUSEHOLD F SOME REASON. 0-10 ON A HOME STAND FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. THE WORST BEFORE THIS 0-7. THEY GET SWEPT THREE TIMES, LOST 12 STRAIGHT AT HOME. THEY ARE 4-36 IN THE SECOND HALF. I COULD KEEP GOING ON AND @#ON. I JUST. YOU KNOW, I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF WHITE SOX FANS WHO ARE UPSET OR APATHETIC, AND THEY ARE FOCUSED ON THE FOOTBALL SEASON. IT ALWAYS GETS ME, BY THE WAY THAT, YOU KNOW, I LIVE AND DIE WITH THIS TEAM, AND I'M DOING MY JOB, AND I'M COVERING THE WHITE SOX TEAM, AND WHEN THEY HAVE A BAD YEAR, PEOPLE TURN THE PAGE AND WATCH @#FOOTBALL. IT'S WATCH THIS WHITE SOX TEAM, BUT THE WAY THEY ARE PLAYING, THEY GOT SHUTOUT, AND I MEAN, I THINK THERE'S FIGHT. I THINK THEY ARE FIGHT. >> NO, NO. NO, NOT COVERING THEIR BUTTS ANYMORE. THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING. THEY ARE NOT. YOU DON'T SEE IT. >> THERE HAVE BEEN @#TIMES WE S IT. >> NO, I DON'T SEE NO FIGHTING. I DON'T SEE ANYBODY GET SET OR STRIKE OUT, AND OKAY, I'M PITCHING, AND IT'S A HOME RUN, AND OH, I WILL GET IT TOMORROW. AFTER THE GAME, WITH THE INTERVIEW, WELL, YOU KNOW, WE TRIED. WE COME EVERY DAY HERE. >> THAT'S -- LIKE THIS @#GUY AL WENT TO THE SAME SCHOOL, AND IN SPRING TRAINING, DEPARTMENT SAID OKAY, KIDS, SIT DOWN. THAT'S HOW WE ARE GOING TO TALK. >> I WANT TO SEE SOMEONE GET REAL DOWN @#THERE. LOOK WHAT WE ARE DOING HERE. >> TEACHING YOU HOW TO TALK ON THE SAME STUFF. >> THE VERGE OF THE MOST LOSSES, AND THAT'S NO LONGER POLITICALLY CORRECT. THIS IS A POLITICALLY INCORRECT SEASON THAT THE WHITE SOX ARE HAVING, AND @#YOU HAVE TO TALK LIKE THAT? YOU CAN'T IGNORE THIS. >> I WANT TO SEE -- DO ME A FAVOR. >> NO, HE'S MY FRIEND. BOBBY, DO ME A FAVOR. WHEN THE TEAM PICTURE COME IN, CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE THOSE @#GUY SIGN IT? DON'T SAY IT IS FOR ME. THEY WON'T DO IT. >> STOP. >> I WANT TO KEEP IT. >> THEY SHOULD KEEP IT TO REMIND THEM OF THE SEASON. WE NEVER EXPERIENCE ANYTHING CLOSE TO THIS EVER AGAIN. >> THEY SHOULD PUT THE TEAM PICTURE ON THE WALL AT CAMELBACK RANCH AND SAY WE DON'T WANT TO EXPERIENCE THIS EVER AGAIN. DON'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO IT, AND REMIND EVERYBODY -- EVERY DAY THEY WALK IN, THIS @#IS WHA HAPPENED THIS YEAR. I JUST -- I LOVE THIS GAME. I LOVE THIS TEAM. I LOVE THIS FRANCHISE. I DESPISE WHAT WE ARE WATCHING HERE. I MEAN, THREE TEAMS COME TO TOWN AND JUST WIPE OVER THE WHITE SOX EVERY SINGLE GAME? >> WE HELP @#PEOPLE TO GET BACK IN THE PENNANT RACE. >> EVERYBODY. >> EXCEPT THE GUARDIANS. >> THE GUARDIANS, OKAY. THE GUARDIANS FACE US BECAUSE BEEN CLOSE. >> WE FACE THEM IN A WEEK. >> YEAH, TIGHT, TIGHT, VERY CLOSE RACE. WAIT UNTIL THEY COME TO OWN. YOU WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. >> THE SALT CAME @#OUT. >> NO. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING. >> IT'S BEEN BUILDING FOR WEEKS. I MEAN, IF YOU WATCH THIS, I MEAN, THE FACT IS, PLAYERS HAVE TO BE FEELING THIS. THEY ARE THE ONES LIVING THIS. >> OH, THEY HUMAN. THEY HAVE TO. THEY HAVE TO. >> THEY ARE LIVING IT. >> NOT THE WAY WE ARE. >> NO, BUT THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT. WE CAN TALK @#ABOUT IT. >> WE CAN START GETTING AT PEOPLE, NOT PROTECTING PEOPLE EVERY TIME. WE NOT PROTECTING THEM. WE SAY WHAT IS TRUE AND WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR, BUT END OF THE DAY, IT'S EMBARRASSING. PEOPLE SEE ME ON THE STREET AND THINK I'M A WHITE SOX FAN, AND EVERY TIME, WHAT'S GOING ON? COME ON. LIKE I DON'T KNOW. I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BALL CLUB. AT THE @#END OF THE DAY, THEY KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION AND THIS BALL CLUB, AND ABOUT THIS BALL CLUB SUCKS. THEY SAY WE PROUD. NO, I CAN SAY THAT BECAUSE I REALLY DID WEAR THE SHIRT, AND IT HURT. WHEN I HAVE PEOPLE FROM VENEZUELA ASK ME STUFF, LIKE WHAT IS UP WITH @#THE TEAM? >> THOSE ARE THE TEXTS I GET FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS, LIKE WELFARE CHECKS ON SHOCK TO SEE HOW I'M DOING BECAUSE OF THIS. I'M SURE EVERYONE IS GETTING THEM. THIS IS INSANE. THIS IS THE MAJOR LEAGUE RECORD FOR LOSSES IN A SEASON, WHICH FOREVER HAS @#BEEN LIKE, WHOA, 120 BY THE METS? AN EXPANSION TEAM FROM '62, IT WILL NEVER BE TOPPED. AT THIS PACE, THEY ARE GOING TO BLOW BY IT. >> THE WAY THEY PLAY, I DON'T THINK THEY WILL WIN ANOTHER GAME. PREPARE YOURSELF. THE WAY THEY ARE PLAYING RIGHT NOW, THEY MAY WIN TWO. >> THAT'S THE TREND. THAT'S THE @#TREND. >> THE BEST PITCHER YOU HAVE RIGHT NOW, GIVING YOU THE BEST CHANCE, CROCHET, ONE INNING? PLEASE. >> TWO AND A THIRD. >> I UNDERSTAND WHY, BUT DON'T BE STUPID OR IGNORANT, BUT WHY? NEED TO WIN THE GAME. CROCHET, YOU GO NINE. YOU CAN PITCH NEXT YEAR IN APRIL. I NEED @#TO WIN ONE GAME AND SE SOMETHING ROLL OR SOMETHING GET BETTER IN THE FUTURE. >> I HEAR YOU. THE WHITE SOX HAVE BROKEN THE RECORD FOR THE MOST LOSSES IN THE SEASON. SURPASSING THE TEAM FROM 1970. THE MARK WAS HELD FOR 54 YEARS, SUFFERING 106th LOSS ON THE LAST @#DAY OF THE REGULAR SEASO IN '70, THEY BREAK IT ON SEPTEMBER 1st , AND THEY HAVE TO GO .500 THE REST OF THE WAY 12-12 TO AVOID TIEING THE 1962 METS FOR THE MOST LOSSES IN MAJOR LEAGUE HISTORY. AGAIN, AN EXPANSION TEAM THAT STARTED FROM SCRATCH. THE SOX ARE GOING TO @#BEAT THA NUMBER. HERE'S THE FIELD PITCHER RECAP. GARRETT CROCHET FOUR PITCHES IN THE LAST START, AND THEN THE RAIN CAME OUT OF NOWHERE, AND THEN SAYING, OKAY, PLAYING FRESH, AND HE WAS, AND SEAN MANAEA SEVEN SCORELESS, TWO HITS, 96 @#PITCHES, AND BACK TO CROCHET FIRST, 57 PITCHES, BUT LOOK WHAT HE DID TO START THE GAME. SEVEN STRAIGHT STRIKEOUTS, AND NOW THAT IS A FRANCHISE RECORD I WANT TO TALK ABOUT. >> SAME. SEVEN OR EIGHT? >> HE WAS EIGHT FOR THE GAME, BUT SEVEN STRAIGHT TO @#START T GAME. >> OH, I THOUGHT IT WAS EIGHT TO START THE GAME? I THINK JOE CARLIE DID IT? >> DID I GET THIS WRONG? I THOUGHT IT WAS SEVEN? >> @#IT'S SEVEN. >> YEAH, BUT IT'S LIKE, SERIOUS. STILL STRONG, STILL HEALTHY. MAN, I NEED TO WIN THIS GAME. I NEED TO WIN THIS GAME. YOU KNOW ME, THE PEOPLE CALL ME, DON'T TAKE THE BALL. WHY SHAME IT. >> KEEP HIM IN THE GAME. >> I NEED A WIN. I'M VERY PROUD. THE BEST CHANCE. AND BY THE WAY, THE REST @#OF T BULL PEN THROW THE BALL VERY GOOD TODAY. >> YEAH, AND PROBABLY LIKE, THESE GUYS, I KNOW WINS AND LOSSES FOR A PITCHER WITH THE METRICS AND ALL ARE NOT AS BIG OF A DEAL AS THEY USED TO BE, BUT IF I'M A PITCHER, I DON'T WANT A SINGLE L ATTACHED TO MY RECORD IF I CAN PREVENT IT. HE ONLY GIVES UP ONE RUN, AND THE WHOLE THING, A BALANCING ACT FOR HIM TRYING TO SAVE PITCHES, SAVE HIS ARM, AND HE TAKES @#A WALK FOR THIS. >> SOME PEOPLE SAY, WIN OR LOSS, NOT IMPORTANT ANYMORE, WELL, LOSS OF 23 GAMES AND ONE GAME AND GO OUT FOR A RACE. OH, I THOUGHT THAT WAS NOT IMPORTANT? THOSE PEOPLE TRY TO CHANGE THE GAME, AND THEY CAN'T CHANGE THE GAME. WHEN @#YOU WIN 20, YOU WIN 20. I DON'T CARE IF YOUR E.R.A. IS 90. >> TRYING TO KEEP IT, BUT GO 7- 1 AND THEN SKIP THE START, BUT THAT WOULD MESS WITH THE FIVE- DAY ROUTINE, AND IT'S KEEPING HIM HEALTHY. I SEE BOTH SIDES. HIS LAST FIVE STARTS. 54 PITCHES, 57 PITCHES, @#4 IN THE LAST OUTING BECAUSE OF THE RAIN. 57 TODAY. THEY ARE KEEPING HIM ON A STRICT PITCH LIMIT LOOKING AT WHERE IT IS GOING AND SEEING HOW LONG IT LASTS. IF YOU'RE TRYING TO WIN THE GAME, IT'S NOT THE GREATEST RECIPE ON PAPER TO WIN A GAME WHEN @#YOU HAVE YOUR STARTER ON GOING 3 1/3. THE BULL PEN GOES TO THE NINTH AND SCORING RUNS FOR THE OFFENSE THAT IS THE WORST IN BASEBALL? >> EVERY TIME CROCHET GOES OUT, THEY HAVE TO BE PRAYING THAT THE BULL PEN WILL HOLD ON, LIKE DID A TREMENDOUS JOB A COUPLE OF DAYS, AND THAT'S WHY. THE BULL PEN WAS WRONG. STORM, @#THE GAME AT 2:00, GETTING WORSE, AND GOING TO SPEND A WEEK A VERY LONG WEEK. THANK GOD THE BULL PEN COME OUT WELL TODAY. >> SEAN MANAEA GOT THE START FROM THE METS, NORTHWEST INDIANA, AND SEAN MANAEA THE LAST TWO STARTS. 20 STRIKEOUTS, NO WALKS, AND DEALING HERE TODAY. THE WHITE SOX @#HAD COMING IN T THIS ONE, SCORED THREE RUNS OR LESS IN SIX CONSECUTIVE GAMES. THEY WERE CLEARLY NOT IN THE GREATEST POSITION. SOME OF THE HOTTEST HITTERS ARE LEFT HANDED, FACING A LEFT- HANDED PITCHER. NOT A GREAT MATCHUP ON PAPER, EITHER. YOU HAVE TO FIND A WAY @#TO SCO TWO RUNS TO KEEP THE GAME GOING. THEY DON'T GET ANY. >> I DON'T THINK, YOU KNOW, THEY ONLY HAVE ONE IN THE INNING. NO BIG HITS. >> SEVENTH INNING. >> 2-0. LET ME GET OFFENSE, VERY, VERY POORLY @#ALL SEASON LONG. >> YEAH, 22 RUNS TOTAL IN THE 10 GAMES OF THE HOME STAND. 91 OF THE LAST 107 HITS THAT HAVE BEEN SINGLES. 91 OF THE LAST 107 HITS HAVE BEEN SINGLES, AND NOT A SINGLE PLAYER ON THE TEAM HAS AN OPS PLUS OVER .100. .100 @#IS LEAGUE AVERAGE. RIGHT NOW NOT A SINGLE WHITE SOX HITTER IS ABOVE THE LEAGUE AVERAGE. HERE WAS ROBERT GETTING SOMETHING GOING IN THE SEVENTH. HIT BY A PITCH, AND IMMEDIATELY GETS THROWN OUT. THE WHITE SOX HAVE A CHANCE, AND A CHANCE THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A WALK AND A SINGLE. >> HAVE @#A CHANCE, AND THE GUY GOT THROWN OUT, AND LOOKING LIKE A GLITCH, AND OUTSTANDING. THAT LUCKY WITH THE BALL THERE, AND PLAYING THE BALL VERY BAD, AND LUCKY ENOUGH, RIGHT NEXT TO HIM, AND RIGHT AWAY. THAT CAN SCORE, AND HAVE PEOPLE IN THE SCORING POSITION. >> @#VARGAS HAD A GOOD GAME YESTERDAY, AND HE HAS STRUGGLED WITH RUNNERS IN SCORING POSITION THIS YEAR. 3 FOR 26. THE BEST CHANCE RIGHT THERE TO SCORE A RUN. >> GOOD BECAUSE ONE BASE HIT AWAY, AND THEY CHANGE THE FATE OF THE GAME. >> THE WHITE SOX GOT THEIR FIRST BASE RUNNER IN THE FOURTH INNING, AND IT @#WAS LENYN SOSA IT WAS A WALK, AND TO SHOW YOU WHERE THINGS ARE GOING, GETS PICKED OFF RIGHT AWAY. >> I DON'T GET IT. I REALLY DON'T GET IT. ROUGH COUPLE OF GAMES. ALMOST ON THE FACE. @# >> OH. >> I TELL YOU WHAT, THAT CAN BE ONE OF THE MOST EMBARRASSING. OH MY GOD. I DON'T KNOW. >> ARE YOU SPEECHLESS? WHAT IS GOING ON? >> BRO, @#DON'T GO ANYWHERE. DON'T GET PICKED OFF. PLEASE. DON'T GO. FIRST MOVE, PICKED OFF. >> NO BASE RUNNERS, THE FOURTH INNING, WHAT EVER YOU DO, STAY ON BASE AND DON'T GET PICKED OFF. >> GIVE US TIME. WHEN YOU DON'T GET ON BASE FOR A LONG TIME, YOU FORGET HOW TO RUN THE BASES. THEY ARE LIKE, I'M ON FIRST BASE, WHAT @#SHOULD I DO? >> GO THERE, BUDDY, SECOND BASE. YOU DON'T WANT TO BE THAT GUY. MAYBE NOTHING HAPPEN, BUT THAT IS NOT A GOOD LOOK. >>> LET'S HEAR FROM GRADY SIZEMORE. @# >> OBVIOUSLY YOU -- [ INAUDIBLE QUESTION ]. >> HE DIDN'T WANT TO COME OUT, HE'S NOT @#GOING TO. COMPETITOR IN HIM. HE KNOWS THE SITUATION AND WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO DO. HE THREW WELL. HE WAS ON, AND HE HAD GOOD STUFF, AND YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH WHEN HE'S ON A SHORT LEASH LIKE THAT IN THE PITCH COUNT. HE'S NEVER GOING TO GO AS DEEP AS HE WANTS. >> A CERTAIN PITCH COUNT FOR TODAY? A PITCH COUNT YOU WANTED TO STOP HIM IN? >> TONIGHT WE HAD A PITCH COUNT. EVERY DAY WE DO. SOMETIMES IT'S A @#PITCH COUNT, AND SOMETIMES IT'S THE INNING LIMIT. WE ARE TRYING TO WORK START TO START AND USE EVERYTHING WE HAVE TO TRY TO KEEP HIM FROM OVEREXTENDING HIMSELF AND STAYING HEALTHY TO @#FINISH STRONG. >> [ INAUDIBLE QUESTION ] DOES THAT PUT A LITTLE EXTRA ON YOUR BULL PEN THOSE DAYS? >> IT DOES. THE BULL PEN WAS RESTED, EVERYONE WAS GOOD, AND WE HAD A LOT OF GUYS AVAILABLE TODAY, BUT THERE ARE GOING TO BE TIMES WHEN IT DOES PUT STRESS OR PUT US IN A TIGHT SPOT, BUT WE HAVE TO THINK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHERE HE IS AT. HE'S OUR FUTURE, AND WE WANT TO PROTECT HIM AS MUCH @#AS POSSIBLE, AND WE HAVE TRIED TO LINE GUYS UP ON THE DAYS HE PITCHES. [ INAUDIBLE QUESTION ]. >> HE JUST LOOKS SHARP. I MEAN, HE WAS JUST AGGRESSIVE, AND HE HAD GOOD LIFE ON HIS FASTBALL AND A GOOD FEEL FOR THE OFFSPEED TUFF. I MEAN, HE WAS JUST -- GUYS WERE TAKING THE BAD SWINGS, AND LOOKED LIKE GOOD MOVEMENT @#AND GOOD STUFF, ALWAYS DOES, BUT JUST SEEMED LIKE HE WAS EXTRA SHARP TODAY AND HAD A LITTLE EXTRA VELO ON IT. >> HARD ENOUGH, IN THE NINTH INNING, AND I DON'T WANT TO READ ANYTHING INTO UMPIRES, BUT WHEN THE PITCH HAD A LITTLE EXTRA. >> YEAH. YEAH. >> DOESN'T THAT MAKE YOUR HITTERS -- >> YEAH. >> @#ON THE DEFENSIVE? >> YEAH. IT'S FRUSTRATING. I THOUGHT THERE WAS A CHECKED SWING THAT WENT AGAINST US AND GOT A RUNNER AND RUN SCORED, AND A COUPLE OF TOUGH CALLS ON THE OTHER END. I THINK IT'S JUST BEEN THE THEME. YOU KNOW, TOUGH BREAKS, AND SOME TOUGH CALLS NOT GOING OUR WAY, AND JUST NOT FALLING FOR US. HATS OFF TO @#THEM. THEY PLAYED WELL AND PITCHED REALLY GOOD TODAY. THEY GOT A GOOD TEAM. >> [ INAUDIBLE QUESTION ]. >> YEAH, LOOK. WE ARE NOT SCORING RUNS, @#AND DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY WE STRIKE OUT. TODAY OFFENSIVELY, STRUGGLED. COULDN'T GET THE RUNS ON THE BOARD. COUPLE OF GOOD AT BATS, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO PUT PRESSURE ON THEM AND MAKE THEM UNCOMFORTABLE. I THINK THE BULL PEN WAS GREAT TODAY. STARTING HAS BEEN GREAT. IT'S JUST BEEN A TOUGH SERIES OFFENSIVELY FOR US. YOU KNOW, NOT ANYTHING SPECIAL. GOOD PITCHER. GOOD CRAFTY VETERAN. BALLS @#COMING FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES. THOUGHT HE DID A GOOD JOB MIXING IT UP WITH THE STRIKES. HEATER IN THE TOP OF THE ZONE, AND KEEPING THE GUYS OFFBALANCE. JUST COULDN'T STRING IT TOGETHER. >> THE WHITE SOX HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO STRING TOGETHER @#A WIN GOING 0-10 ON THE HOME STAND. NOW BALTIMORE NEXT. >> GOOD LUCK. THOSE GUYS ARE HUNGRY, IN THE PENNANT RACE, TOUGH DIVISION, AND THE WILD CARD AND THE DIVISION, AND I THINK WINNING THE DIVISION IS EASIER THAN WINNING THE WILD CARD. DIVISION, YOU'RE GOING TO COMPETE AGAINST TWO GUYS, AND IN THE WILD CARD, SIX OR SEVEN PEOPLE. YOU NEVER @#KNOW WHAT IS GOING HAPPEN THERE. >> GRADY SAID GARRETT DID NOT WANT TO COME OUT OF THE GAME. >> NO SURPRISE. >> THEY HAVE A RULE, THEY HAVE A PITCH LIMIT, AND HERE'S GARRETT CROCHET WITH HIS REACTION AFTER THE GAME. >> GARRETT, GRADY WAS SAYING BEFORE THE GAME HE KNOWS WHEN HE HAS TO COME AND GET YOU AT A CERTAIN POINT, AND @#IT'S THE COMPETITOR IN YOU. HOW DO YOU PROCESS THIS? GOING WELL, AND IT'S TIME. >> I GET IT. YOU KNOW, I KNOW HE DOESN'T WANT TO, BUT WE HAVE HAD CHANCES, AND THAT'S JUST KIND OF WHERE WE ARE AT. IT'S TOUGH, BUT IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE IN @#STRIDE AND MAKE SURE GET MY WORK IN AT THAT POINT. >> MAKING THE START ON THE LIMITED BASIS? >> 100%. WE TALKED ABOUT IT IN THE PAST, AND I THINK THAT'S THE IMPORTANT PART. WE KEEP GOING OUT THERE AND LOGGING INNINGS AND STARTS. >> THE STRIKEOUTS TO START THE GAME, HOW @#DID IT FEEL? >> YEAH, IT'S COOL. SADLY I KIND OF WASTED A LOT OF PITCHES IN THAT TIME. KIND OF ATE INTO MY PITCH COUNT EARLIER THAN I WOULD HAVE LIKED TO. HOPEFULLY AS THE OUTINGS GO ON, I CAN GET CLOSER TO THE FIFTH INNING AND JUST HELP THE @#BULL PEN OUT. I FELT REALLY GOOD WITH MY TOUGH TODAY. THE CUTTER, I FELT LIKE I WAS ABLE TO THROW IT AS HARD AS I COULD AND IT WAS GOING WHERE I WANTED UNTIL THE LINDOR ONE. BESIDES THAT, HAPPY WITH IT TODAY. >> THE FEEL GOOD OF BEING ABLE TO THROW IT JUST AS WELL, CUTTER, AND AS YOU DID @#IN APRIL? >> YEAH, YEAH. NOT SHOCKING AT ALL, BUT IT'S DEFINITELY ENCOURAGING. THE WORK I HAVE PUT IN WITH ETHAN, AND YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS JUST LIKE FIXING MY TEMPO, I FELT LIKE I LOST IT AFTER THE ALL STAR BREAK. RIGHT NOW I'M FEELING LIKE I'M IN A GOOD RHYTHM. ABLE TO USE MY WEAPONS LIKE @#I DID TODAY. WHEN I'M DOING THAT, I FEEL LIKE IT PUTS ME IN A GOOD SPOT. >> YOU TOUCH THE ON THE FIVE INNINGS FOR THE BULL PEN, AND IT'S WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT, RIGHT? >> 100%. I THINK THAT'S HOW MOST STARTERS FEEL. ESPECIALLY BRINGING A GUY IN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INNING. GUS HAD MY BACK, @#AND HE WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF IT UNSCATHED. THAT'S AWESOME. THAT'S A POSITION I DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE TO BRING HIM IN TO, YOU KNOW? BUT, YEAH, THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL PITCHERS, TOO, AND THAT'S PART OF THEIR JOB. I KNOW THEY DON'T MIND IT, BUT IT WEIGHS ON ME BEING THE SOLE REASON @#THEY HAVE TO. >> GARRETT CROCHET AT 132 INNINGS, AND THAT IS AMAZING. >> A LOT. >> AMAZING HE GOT TO THIS POINT, BUT IT'S FRUSTRATING TO SEE THE GUY THROW A FRANCHISE RECORD SEVEN STRAIGHT STRIKEOUTS TO START THE GAME, AND GIVE UP ONE RUN, AND HE IS TAKEN OUT OF THE GAME BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO PROTECT HIM # FOR NEXT SEASON AND HIS FUTURE, BUT IT SADDLES THE WHITE SOX WITH ANOTHER LOSS. >> BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T SCORE RUNS. BESIDES THAT, I LIKE WHAT HE IS SAYING WITH I WOULD LIKE TO STAY LONGER TO HELP. >> YES.@# >> TO HELP THE BULL PEN. >> I WAS -- I COULDN'T WAIT TO HEAR THAT FROM HIM. HE KNOWS, EVERY TIME I GO OUT, THE BULL PEN HAS TO WORK. THEY USE MORE GUYS. I LOVE WHAT HE SAID AND I RESPECT HIM FOR SAYING THAT. >> THE BULL PEN ONLY GIVING UP ONE RUN THE REST OF THE WAY, BUT NO RUNS AND TWO HITS, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WIN EVER. YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WIN A GAME WHEN YOU DON'T SCORE. WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN FROM HERE WITH THE WHITE SOX? WE HAVE @#BEEN TALKING ABOUT TH '62 METS, LOST 120 GAMES, MOST LOSSES IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL HISTORY. TO AVOID THAT FATE, HERE'S THE SCHEDULE COMING UP HERE. REMAINING SCHEDULE. THE NEXT THREE TEAMS WITH WINNING RECORDS. ORIOLES, RED SOX, AND GUARDIANS. THEY ARE 5-5 AGAINST THE GUARDIANS THIS SEASON. THE @#A's, SIX WITH THE ANGELS, ALL UNDER .500. THE PADRES, WINNING RECORD. CLOSING AT DETROIT, AND HAVE TO GO 12-12 TO AVOID TIEING THE MOST LOSSES IN MAJOR LEAGUE HISTORY, AND I'M TRYING TO WILLING THAT INTO EXISTENCE THEY DO NOT END UP IN THE RECORD BOOKS, BUT I'M LOSING @# MY ATTEMPT TO WILL THIS FROM HAPPENING. MY WORDS CAN ONLY CARRY SO MUCH WEIGHT, WHICH THEY CARRY NO WEIGHT. >> IT'S JUST LIKE -- I HOPE IT'S NOT HAPPENING. >> I KNOW. >> BUT THE WAY THEY PLAY? FLATTER AND FLATTER DAY IN AND DAY OUT. >> STARTING PITCHING, @#IF THEI OFFENSE EQUALED THE STARTING PITCHING, THIS TEAM COULD BE -- I MEAN JUST THROWING IT OUT THERE, A .500 TEAM? >> YEAH AROUND THERE. >> IF THEIR STARTING PITCHING STAFF AND THEIR OFFENSE WAS THE SAME. IF THE OFFENSE WAS AS GOOD AS WE HAVE BEEN SEEING FROM THE STARTING PITCHING, COULD THEY @# BE A .500 TEAM? >> AT LEAST MORE COMPETITIVE. THEY WOULD BE COMPETING. >> I HAVEN'T EVEN TALKED ABOUT THE BULL PEN, BUT I
