MLB world reacts to latest embarrassing White Sox moment

The Chicago White Sox have had quite a few embarrassing moments in a season to forget thus far. But perhaps none have truly encapsulated the team’s incompetence more than an incident during Wednesday’s game against the Texas Rangers.

While the White Sox were warming up in the infield before the start of the top of the eighth inning, White Sox catcher Chuckie Robinson did what every MLB catcher does while warming up, practicing a throw down to second base before the inning got underway.

The only problem is that White Sox second baseman Lenyn Sosa, who was standing just behind second base, was not paying attention to Robinson’s throw down to him. The ball ended up hitting Sosa squarely in the nose, which prompted the White Sox training staff to come out and look at him.

To Sosa’s credit, he would stay in the game after the incident and continue on for the remainder of the game. But it’s really a quite laughable situation considering this same routine before the inning is taught to every baseball player years before they ever make it to the MLB.

Naturally, fans took to social media to poke fun at Sosa’s blunder, as it truly does encapsulate the severe struggles of the White Sox this year that have ultimately resulted in them coming into the game with a 31-102 record on the year.

To make matters even worse for Sosa, he had a chance to completely erase this moment from the minds of White Sox fans at the very end of the game, coming up to bat with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning trailing by one run.

But instead of doing that, he further reminded White Sox fans of the misery that they have been watching all season long, flying out to center field to ensure the 4-3 loss, their sixth straight defeat.
