The White Sox future looks bright and present has a big highlight!
Sure the Giants and the White Sox are basically just playing out the string. But don’t tell Jose Abreu that. He legged out a triple and completed the cycle against the Giants.
It was the first White Sox cycle since Jose Valentin. The last White Sox cycle hit by someone with a first name OTHER than Jose was Chris Singleton in 1999.
Lots of young talent on this White Sox team. Maybe next Abreu can lead them to more wins.

This Day in Milwaukee Brewers History: Robin Yount’s 3000th Hit
Robin Yount said on the leadup to his 3000th hit that it wasn’t going to be a big deal. The man who took more pride in his Milwaukee Brewers winning ballgames than personal stats found out he was wrong – the 3000 hit plateau was a huge deal. On September 9, 1992, a crowd of 47,589 packed Milwaukee County Stadium to see history made when Yount became the 17th MLB player to reach the mark. He tied Roberto Clemente for 16th on the list.
The Brewers are 1 – 9 in their last 10 games. They have had the biggest swings in win streaks and then losing streaks. The club has played 21 games at home versus 14 on the road.
