The Chicago White Sox have 115 losses on September 16 (as I write this), and they are about to have six games against the Angels, who are trying to avoid their own franchise record loss record.

The Seattle Mariners and the Pittsburgh Pirates are currently playing on Apple TV+, which means I am not watching it. Ban exclusively streamed content. Return everything to linear television.

Seattle Mariners last four series: won two of three v the Phillies, lost two of three v the Tigers, swept v the Mets, swept at Detroit. White Sox last 28 games: 2-26. Begging any team I like to be normal. This episode, Chris ( @antoniuspius ) leads Kory ( @taiikumenco ) and Chris ( @gokuffy ) through the final episode of the Jean-Pierre Melville podcast series with our traditional documentary, and...

The Chicago White Sox just lost 21 games in a row, which matches the 1988 Orioles mark, but is not any record. They won the next game, then lost the one after that (today's game) by yet another bullpen blowup. Not a good team. This episode, Chris ( @antoniuspius ) leads Kory ( @taiikumenco ) and Chris ( @gokuffy ) through the final flick of Jean-Pierre Melville, Un flic (A Cop). Join the unofficia...

The Seattle Mariners have been a very sad baseball team as of late. They have lost 6 of 7 against the Angels, who they should, at the very least, not be losing 6 of 7 against. Julio and JP are on the IL. The pitching is still elite. I don't know what's happening. This episode, Kory ( @taiikumenco ) welcomes Chris ( @gokuffy ) and Chris ( @antoniuspius ) into a panda home and through Panda! Go, Pan...

Watching the Home Run Derby currently, and Pete Alonso is not it I guess. Dunno about this new format either.

The Mariners, as I watch this game, have the bases loaded and I'm just hoping for the best for the team. Go Julio. This episode, Kory ( @taiikumenco ) leads Chris ( @gokuffy ) and Chris ( @antoniuspius ) through the beginning of yet another journey through anime and through the filmography of the famed director and co-creator of the beloved Studio Ghibli, Isao Takahata.

I am part of a fantasy baseball league, and it has been incredibly fun. Mostly for the reason of suddenly having a rooting interest in teams I otherwise don't care much about. Which is to say Thairo Estrada is my favorite player of all time now.

The Seattle Mariners, who I have been a lifelong fan of and have never written about another baseball team in these intros, won a game in extras where they scored 5 runs in the 10th, and it was awesome. This episode, Kory ( @taiikumenco ) leads Chris ( @gokuffy ) and Chris ( @antoniuspius ) into the basement and through the movie Parasite.

As a lifelong Mariners fan, I am generally worried for their slow start and shaky pitching, but also recognize it is too early to be truly worried.

The Kansas City Royals, the predecessors to the 2024 Chicago White Sox, beat up on their little brothers today in very depressing fashion. If it wasn't a Thursday, maybe there'd be slightly less sad Mariners baseball to think about.

Chelsea won a wild game with two extra time goals, and I could not be more ecstatic about this outcome because I have honestly resigned myself to suffering for a couple years of chemistry building. This episode, Chris ( @antoniuspius ) leads Kory ( @taiikumenco ) and Chris ( @gokuffy ) through one, if not the, least samurai movie covered on this podcast, Le Samouraï.

A few days ago, the AAA Orioles beat up on the AAA White Sox 26-11, and that scoreline was only made marginally better by a 3-run 8th inning by the Charlotte Knights. I would not be surprised if the Norfolk Tide beat the Chicago White Sox two out of three games. This episode, Chris ( @gokuffy ) leads Chris ( @antoniuspius ) and Kory ( @taiikumenco ) through the fog, and through The Fog. Join the u...
