The Kansas City Royals host the Chicago White Sox on May 5

Find my White Sox vs Royals prediction and MLB picks below
including a three-inning stinker against Colorado that saw him depart with a groin injury
He missed one start but didn't go on the IL
I'm going to assume he's healthy
with his "worst" mark being a 2.57 xFIP
He's currently running a .338 BABIP despite average contact and batted-ball numbers
The Rule 5 pick has allowed two earned runs or fewer in all but one start in 2025
Smith's fastball/changeup/slider combo has graded out well in terms of run value
The changeup is an obscene 90-mph weapon with three extra inches of vertical drop compared to average
It's a Pitching Ninja darling and a formidable swing-and-miss pitch. Smith's ERA estimators are around 4.00, but the skills are solid.
The Royals have been battling the Rockies for the worst offense in the league against right-handed pitchers. They are slowly waking up, though facing Baltimore's pitching staff certainly helped.
The White Sox are 25th or worse in OPS, wOBA and wRC+ against left-handed pitchers. If we trust the larger sample from the Royals, these are two underwhelming offenses.
Like the moneyline, I don't see value on either run line here.
My best bet for this matchup is for the game to stay under the F5 total. I trust these pitchers to shut the opposing offenses down, and I want to avoid the uncertainty of the bullpens.

Manchester City have had to switch their focus to Nottingham Forest ace Morgan Gibbs-White as Florian Wirtz will not be arriving in England this summer
Premier League sides are now aggressively attacking the market and want to secure their key signings as early as possible to beat competition to the punch. However, there will be disappointment surrounding one of the world’s most coveted players in Wirtz
Premier League clubs are starting to back away from the Bayer Leverkusen star and leave the race to European giants Real Madrid and Bayern Munich
Manchester City have been long-term admirers of Wirtz but have pivoted and are working hard to bring in Gibbs-White from Forest instead
TEAMtalk can reveal the Englishman is very keen to make the move and Forest are aware of his intentions to leave this summer
Forest hope to keep hold of Gibbs-White as he is one of their key players
but the reality is that this is unlikely and he will move on to play under Pep Guardiola next season
Talks are set to push on over the next week and City want him in place ready for this summer’s Club World Cup
TEAMtalk understands that City were joined by Arsenal
Liverpool and Manchester United in holding interest in Wirtz
but there was no real movement from the Premier League’s elite as the Germany international wants to continue playing under the guidance of Xabi Alonso

This has put Real Madrid in a very strong position as Alonso is set to take over from Carlo Ancelotti next season and has already expressed his desire to bring the 22-year-old with him to Spain
Sources state that Madrid have approved Wirtz’s potential signing
with an official move expected in the summer
Sources have also revealed that the playmaker knew of the possibility to play for Madrid – widely regarded as the world’s biggest side – last summer and that is why he held off on a move until the end of this season
who are pushing extremely hard to land the talented playmaker by offering huge sums of money
Bayern are also hoping his friendship with Jamal Musiala will pay dividends to bring him in this summer
but most sources expect him to move to Madrid
Leverkusen are also extremely reluctant to sell him to Bayern as they are a direct league rival and it would only strengthen them further
After learning they will be unable to snare Wirtz, City have been linked with a £60m swoop for Gibbs-White

JEFFERSON CITY — A rare all-white deer was spotted in the Jefferson City area on Monday
A resident in Jefferson City spotted the animal near Flora Drive on April 28 in a grassy area near the roadway
The Missouri Department of Conservation's Aaron Hildreth
stated that approximately one in 20,000 to one in 30,000 deer are born with the genetic mutation that makes their bodies completely white
There are no protections against hunting all-white deer in Missouri
but these regulations can vary by municipality
Hildreth noted that if residents ever spot an animal with albinism or leucism
leave them be and maintain a safe distance that allows the animal to remain calm
"Let wildlife stay wild," emphasized Hildreth
The actor and director have wanted to film the true story of murders at the 1893 World’s Fair for more than a decade
and reports suggest it is back in pre-production
The long-gestating period serial killer film The Devil in the White City, which for almost a decade has been a mooted collaboration between Leonardo DiCaprio and director Martin Scorsese
Adapted from Erik Larson’s The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic and Madness at the Fair That Changed America, it is about notorious murderer HH Holmes, who is alleged to have tortured and killed dozens of victims, mostly in his “Murder Castle” in Chicago in the 1890s in the run-up to the 1893 World’s Fair
(Holmes was tried and executed in 1896 for a single killing
with Keanu Reeves in the lead role and Todd Field directing
It stalled again a year later after Reeves and Field left the project
A finished film is not likely to appear soon. Deadline reports that no script is attached to the current version of the project, while Scorsese has at least two major feature projects on hand – an adaptation of Shūsaku Endō’s novel A Life of Jesus and a biopic of singer Frank Sinatra – as well as Shipwrecks of Sicily
DiCaprio will next be seen in Paul Thomas Anderson’s as yet untitled new film

LUCIE COUNTY — County commissioners shot down a plan to build 200 homes at 25th Street and Midway Road in White City
property currently designated for commercial use
The townhouses — which the developer told the county would supply "housing stock for the essential workers of St
teachers and law enforcement" — were met with backlash from residents who said they wanted the property to remain either undeveloped or commercially zoned
a White City resident who less than 24 hours earlier had been St
"We can't fit any more houses in the White City area," Pearson said in an interview Wednesday
"We need those commercial buildings to house restaurants
a place where someone can go to get a haircut."
was represented by Mariana Arias Sanz of land planning firm Cotleur and Hearing
Sanz argued that the change to residential would significantly reduce potential traffic
compared to the maximum impact allowed under the current zoning
According to the developer's traffic study
such a project could result in about 24,000 daily trips
compared to just 2,000 for the proposed townhouses
"The decrease in traffic alone is humongous for this land-use amendment," Sanz said
a state law that allows developers to get around certain county rules or approvals if
at least 40% of the project is for affordable housing
"The pro-development scare tactics don't really play well to me," said Commissioner James Clasby
"Nobody wants what's being proposed here tonight."
Commissioner Cathy Townsend pushed her fellow commissioners to table the vote and give residents time to consider what they had learned about possible other uses for the property
"I just want to be sure that you understand what you're asking for
it could be a lot worse for you," Townsend warned residents who spoke out against the project
who said earlier that he does not think this project fits in White City
also supported delay in order to give the developer time to change its plans
who called the plans "an awful application," stood firm against any delay
"I don't think that this site plan can be fixed without changing 100%
and that's not fair to staff," Clasby said
Pearson said he did not intend for the meeting to be his first public statement as a private citizen
he has been tracking proposed developments on this site
he decided to speak only after hearing what the property owner had to say
"From Day One I was at every single one of those meetings
but the neighbors would come to me and say
"So I've been an advocate for this for the last 15 or 20 years
and this isn't the first builder that came in to try to do this
and I'm sure it's not going to be the last."

Pearson said he plans to continue speaking out against what he sees as out-of-control growth
Pearson was especially critical of Townsend
used some of the same "scare tactics" that Clasby complained about to justify her no vote
Townsend said Tuesday that she also owns property in White City — a house that she plans on retiring to — and that she has its best interests in mind

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea delivers a statement over anti-Israel attacks during an anti-US and anti-Israel protest in Sana'a
In the aftermath of Operation White City, Israel's strategic strike on Houthi targets in Yemen
reactions across the Arab world have revealed deep regional divisions
While Saudi commentators appeared to welcome the action
Hamas rushed to express solidarity with the Houthis

What must Tehran be thinking as it witnesses Israeli strikes on Sanaa this morning
Do these fresh Israeli strikes on Yemen represent one of the final communications to Iran?"
IDF Arabic spokesperson Avichay Adraee crafted an acrostic spelling out "Sanaa," cleverly mimicking and mocking the Houthi spokespersons' practice of writing targeted Israeli locations in the same style
— افيخاي ادرعي (@AvichayAdraee) December 19, 2024
When senior Houthi official Mohammed Ali al-Houthi decried the Israeli strike as a "war crime," Adraee responded with sharp irony: "He attacked me and cried
Hamas issued a strong condemnation of Israel's attack on Houthi positions in Yemen
"We stand in complete solidarity with Yemen and our brothers in the Ansarallah movement as they face Zionist

Houthi activist Mohammed bin Radwan asserted that Saudi commentators were celebrating what he termed "the Israeli-Saudi strike on the capital
Sanaa." Saudi activist Abdul Rahman al-Otaibi countered with derision: "Where is Israel
You claimed victory over the US and Israel just a year ago
and now you position yourselves as victims."
Houthi official spokesperson Yahya Sarea announced: "We launched two ballistic missiles targeting military installations in the Jaffa area." He specified these as "Palestine-2" hypersonic missiles
adding that the launches were synchronized with "the Israeli strike on civilian facilities in Sanaa and Hodeidah province
The spokesperson issued a warning that they would "respond to this brutal aggression while maintaining support for Gaza and targeting all hostile positions with appropriate weaponry."

Utah (KUTV) — Residents of White City are pushing back against the idea of building a civic center in Big Bear Park
City officials would like to have a building that consolidates their services
The park is an important staple for many families
and a personal favorite of Arturo Mendez’s kids
"Every time we're around the area they're like
“They feel a sense of adventure because look how big it is."
The park even brought some people like Liz Rennie to White City more than 20 years ago
“We moved here because of the park,” Rennie said
residents like Rennie are worried about a potential plan to build a civic center in the northwestern end of the park
the place where kids can run around and play and where there are sports activities,” she said
White City Mayor Paulina Flint said all the city has done so far is get bids for a feasibility study
She said in an email the building would be a "minimalist presence in the park" and "very little brick and mortar."
She said the city needs a location for emergency management meetings
and an official address to report to FEMA and the state — which is currently her home address
Rennie doesn’t think those are enough good reasons
saying they already have a building for UPD and can use the White City Water District building for everything else
Flint said their use of the water district building is "subject to an agreement that may not always be available."
Flint also said they asked the bidders for feasibility to look at purchasing property
but White City is 100% built out and there's no space
Below are the questions KUTV sent to Flint via email and her answers:
What kind of amenities would this civic center have
Or at least what are you guys hoping to have
It will have an admin office for the city administrator
meeting spaces for events and public meetings
It will give an official address to the city within the boundaries of the city
How much would it change the current layout of the park
it will be situated at the very Northwestern end of the park
On the South end of Wheeler Farm the is a new building which is used for Utah State Extension classes
This is a sample of a complimentary fit for continuing education for our residents
It has a long connecting corridor in the rear
which can display historical and local artistic talent
What made you start looking into adding it (or something else)
When the time comes for declaring a disaster event
we need location for emergency management meetings for the city
We also need space for our UPD officers to write reports and maintain a presence within the city while on duty in White City
We need an official address to report to FEMA and the state
Also our use of space at the water district building is subject to an agreement that may not always available
We are asked the bidders for feasibility to look at purchasing property
would there be a tax increase to pay for it
White City has chosen not to impose a property tax
Salt lake County has assessed a property tax which it assesses all the cities in this county
and grants which pay for our public works services and capital projects
Sego Lilly has been totally paid for with these funds
Our system of the Greater Salt Lake Municipal Services District saves each of our new cities from having to build separate public works departments in each new city
Our residents benefit from not having to do a property tax
After seeing the petition and how much people love the park the way it is
Our whole council and community have supported the park by getting and paying for 30 new trees
we have put in all new tennis court lights
donated chain link to build new tennis court gates
We were able in 2017-18 to get updated safe playground equipment
Built Canal trail from 10600 South to Carnation Drive
Placed and paid for lighting along the trail
We have grant funds to complete the lighting
We are waiting on Rocky Mountain power to assist in finishing the project
This trail enables residents from all over the SE areas to get to the park safely
WHITE CITY — Police are investigating a shooting that left a 17-year-old injured Thursday evening
police received a report of shots fired near Big Bear Park
Aymee Race said shell casings were located at the scene and witnesses reported two vehicles fleeing the area
police were informed of a 17-year-old at a local hospital with a "gunshot wound to an extremity." The teen's injuries do not appear life-threatening
Investigators with the Unified Police Department are looking into what led to the shooting and attempting to identify suspects
The incident was isolated and possibly gang related
Larson’s nonfiction crime drama is subtitled Magic and Madness at the Fair That Changed America
The book narrates the interwoven stories of architect Daniel Burnham and of the notorious Dr H
a serial killer who is believed to have murdered scores of people during the celebrated Columbian Exhibition in Chicago in 1893.Scorsese and DiCaprio had earlier collaborated in several other acclaimed movies
will be produced by DiCaprio and Scorsese in tandem with Stacey Sher
The upcoming adaptation of Larson’s book is another coup for David Greenbaum
both of whom have recently announced two other high-profile projects: Deliver Me From Nowhere
starring Austin Butler under the direction of Edward Berger
Kathryn Bigelow and Paula Wagner had been under consideration to direct earlier iterations of the film
with Tom Cruise reportedly a candidate for the starring role
Hulu was working with Todd Field on directing a series that would have starred Keanu Reeves
The DiCaprio-Scorsese film would not be the first adaptation of Larson’s book. In 2007, National Geographic aired a documentary entitled Madness in the White City. In 2011, Ann Reinking, Bruce Wolosoff, and Melissa Thodos collaborated on a ballet, The Devil in the White City, for Thodos Dance Chiacgo.Check out other articles by Edward

The director and his regular collaborator have been trying to get this one on screens for years now, going through different incarnations.
An adaptation of Erik Larson’s 2003 literary non-fiction tome, 'The Devil in the White City', has been touted so many times in the years since it was first optioned, fans have begun to feel like ‘Peanuts’ Charlie Brown with the football –– every time things seem to start going in the right direction (i.e
Martin Scorsese arrives on the red carpet of the 96th Oscars® at the Dolby® Theatre at Ovation Hollywood on Sunday
whose full title is ‘The Devil in the White City: Murder
and Madness at the Fair That Changed America,’ was first published in 2003
The scrupulously researched and endlessly compelling tome covers a true story but does it in thrilling novelistic style
the first three happening in Chicago between 1890 and 1893
while part four of the book takes place in Philadelphia circa 1895
The book interweaves the true tales of Daniel Burnham
the architect behind the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair
a serial killer who lured his victims to their deaths in his elaborately constructed “Murder Castle.”
Burnham ran into many challenges when it came to the World’s Fair including a fire
difficulty engineering the buildings to be safe
Holmes was responsible for multiple murders
His “dungeon” was equipped with secret rooms
and he even had access to a big furnace to cremate the bodies of his victims
Holmes was known as a charming man who had the ability to seduce his primarily female victims
Holmes was tried and executed in 1896 for a single killing
Before it was even on shelves, Tom Cruise became aware of it, nabbing the rights quickly and kicking off work on an adaptation with the help of Kathryn Bigelow and her ‘K-19: The Widowmaker’ writer Christopher Kyle
Leonardo DiCaprio attends the 'Don't Look Up' World Premiere at Jazz at Lincoln Center on December 05

DiCaprio dug up all the public domain information he could about the case and started to put the pieces together for his own movie
Yet years went by with little forward movement for either project
and the rights eventually ended up back on the open market in 2010
intending to star in (as Holmes) and produce the project with his Appian Way business partner Jennifer Davisson Killoran
“ ‘The Devil in the White City’ is truly a one-of-its-kind American story about our nation’s first serial killer
We’re excited to bring it to the big screen.”
Yet it didn’t quite gel, and then Paramount won the rights in a 2015 bidding war, sealing a new deal with DiCaprio and co, while Billy Ray wrote the latest version of the script
If that wasn’t enough, the Hulu series landed Keanu Reeves to star
though it was never confirmed who he’d play (our thoughts would surely tend towards Daniel Burnham)
the brakes were back on as Reeves and Field left the project
Deadline cautions that the new incarnation
Scorsese would direct and DiCaprio’s looking to star as well as produce
Lily Gladstone and Leonardo DiCaprio on the set of 'Killers of the Flower Moon'
We’ll be waiting for a while, since Scorsese has at least two major feature projects on hand –– an adaptation of Shūsaku Endō’s novel ‘A Life of Jesus’ and a biopic of singer Frank Sinatra
as well as ‘Shipwrecks of Sicily,' a documentary about marine archaeology
DiCaprio will next be seen in Paul Thomas Anderson’s as yet untitled new film
but right now it doesn’t have a formal release date
First it has to make it properly through the development process for the 734th time

Confirming earlier leaks
the Chicago White Sox yesterday unveiled their new 2025 City Connect (2.0) uniforms
the leak which portended a Bulls-inspired CC has come to the fore
But that initial leak only provided us with views of the jersey (and stripped down views at that — the CCs leaked in the above referenced post were all lacking uniform numbers front and back
We were not privy to any leaks of the new CC caps — yes
I usually start you off with a hype video (and I will)
Now that you have an actual image of the uniform
Born here, BRED here. Forever Chicago. pic.twitter.com/bSOJmbHgtZ
— Chicago White Sox (@whitesox) April 28, 2025
the White Sox’ new City Connect is an ode/crossover to the Chicago Bulls (it should be noted that Jerry Reinsdorf owns both the White Sox and Bulls)
and this is reflected in several of the uniform’s storytelling elements
Not only are the colors (black and red) the same as the Bulls’ but the pinstripes and the font are almost directly lifted from the Bulls (though the White Sox certainly have a long pinstripe history as well)
And that’s not all — for the first time ever
the logo of an NBA team will appear on a major league jersey (more on that in a sec)
In another first, you may have noticed from the video that players were pictured wearing different caps. At first I thought one was the “primary” and the other was BP cap (since that’s a thing now)
but it turns out the White Sox plan to wear both caps with the CC
The Chicago White Sox unveil their new Bulls-inspired City Connect uniforms ⚾️🏀 pic.twitter.com/M1Gj1Epl3p
— Nice Kicks (@nicekicks) April 28, 2025
The other cap has a red brim with black crown
and features the same raised logo as the first cap
At the end of each sleeve is a thick red band
with the word “SOUTHSIDE” in black written multiple times in a circular pattern
“CHICAGO” is written in vertically arched lettering in black with white outlines
There is a front number located to the player’s lower left
in the same black/white style as “CHICAGO.”
The white winged sock which appears on the caps is featured on one sleeve
you can see “CHICAGO” stitched into the white sock
This feature won’t be visible from any distance
The rear of the jersey features a rather large NOB (a harkback)
I was wondering if the White Sox would continue this trend
with a thick red stripe and “SOUTHSIDE” (the same pattern as on the sleeve cuffs) in repeating fashion up and down the pants leg
At least they’re not red pinstriped pants
While no players were shown wearing CC socks
there was a pair on a mannequin at the unveiling
The lighting on that is unfortunately poor
but this longer shot shows they’re black
with a white/thin black/red/thin black/white stripe pattern at the calf
with one additional red/white/red stripe beneath the sock logo (which morphs into a new logo)
There you can see another Bulls visual clue — the white sock is inside the classic Bulls pants striping
As you saw both in the videos and earlier shots
there are two features to the jersey that won’t be seen
Inside the collar are the years the White Sox (in white numbers) and Bulls (in red numbers) won titles in their respective sports
And every single notation features an apostrophe catastrophe
I am not certain of the provenance of the above shot — so I don’t know if the players will actually be wearing jerseys with the apostrophe catastrophe
or if this is something that will be corrected for fan merch — but how did that not get noticed at some stage of development
UPDATE: Looks like the retail versions of the jersey will have the apostrophe catastrophe on them…(FFS)
The other “non-visible” feature is of course the aforementioned NBA logo on an MLB jersey — on the shirt tail
down by the jock tag (and which will be tucked in during gameplay) is a combo White Sox/Bulls logo
all of those elements wouldn’t be complete without the storytelling
I always like to include these little “explainer” videos
which actually do a pretty good job of what the hype video really should be accomplishing:

“Our initial City Connect jersey was iconic
We wanted to build on the reach and connection of that City Connect uniform by creating a look that physically represents Chicago’s sports identity and do something that has never been done,” said White Sox Chief Revenue and Marketing Officer Brooks Boyer
two of Chicago’s franchises will be represented on one jersey on a major league field
From the ‘Chicago’ wordmark across the chest representing our city to the crossover elements within the jersey and cap
every detail is meant to be more than just a jersey and cap
but emblems of what it means to be bred in Chicago.”
“The Bulls were proud to contribute to the White Sox efforts and to be a part of creating the first-ever MLB jersey to feature NBA team marks,” said Jon Shoemaker
“While collaborating with the White Sox on the design
our shared goal was clear that we wanted to honor our city and its great fans with an MLB jersey that reflects our mutual connection to and love for Chicago
We added visual elements that both teams share
as well as details that are unique to the Bulls
like the ‘Chicago’ wordmark and our signature red and black.”
I wasn’t necessarily expecting white pants with this
and the black pants probably will work well with the look
I was actually giving probably far too much thought to what pants they might pair with the leaked jersey
and I actually pictured full red pinstriped pants
I like the winged sock logo, but I don’t like “SOUTHSIDE” being repeated throughout the wide red ribbon/stripe on the sleeve hems and pants leg. It’s not that it’s even particularly noticeable from any distance (and from distance it actually looks like a red/black/red stripe)
and now it’s going to annoy me whenever I see these
I actually don’t think they pair well with the black pants
These would have been much better served by making red socks with black pinstripes
Black socks with black pants doesn’t work particularly well in this instance
The White Sox will be debuting the new City Connects this Friday
The Sox had traditionally worn their CC version 1.0 for Monday home games
but have not (as yet) announced when and how often these will be worn
Today’s scoreboard comes from MsFan48
The premise of the game (GTGFTS) is simple: I’ll post a scoreboard and you guys simply identify the game depicted
I don’t know if I’ve ever completely stumped you (some are easier than others)
try to identify the game (date and location
If anything noteworthy occurred during the game
please add that in (and if you were AT the game
You’re welcome to send me any scoreboard photos (with answers please)
location and final score of the game from the clues provided in the photo
Sometimes the game should be somewhat easy to ascertain
There will usually be a visual clue (something odd or unique to one or both of the uniforms) that will make a positive identification of one and only one game possible
there may be something significant about the game in question
like the last time a particular uniform was ever worn (one of Jimmy’s original suggestions)
It’s up to YOU to figure out the game and date
Today’s GTGFTU comes from Jimmy Corcoran himself
Good luck and please post your guess/answer in the comments below
…that’ll do it for the early lede
I should have a couple more articles today
including the ever-popular Mike Chamernik’s Question of the Week
Everyone have a good Tuesday and I’ll catch you tomorrow
This must be terrible for any Bulls/Cubs fan out there
I find it strange that they’re doing this in a split city
being a Cubs/Bulls fan this absolutely sucks………………
I wouldn’t be behind it even if it were the Cubs
I read a comment saying the players would be deported as the uniform looks like something MS13 would wear
This years CCs to me were somewhat better than previous years
The country needs uplifting not something that envisions the pits of hell
I like that the teams are using the City Connects to be a little innovative and experimental
But I give them points for trying some new things
I don’t know why more people don’t view alternate uniforms in this light
The CC program allows them to create merch for tweens
people who use the word “lit” on social media
without f’n with their classic home/road set
I actually thought their “Southside” CC’s were great
I just felt like it fit “their” look
But these………… these make no sense except for Jerry Reinsdorf
Please don’t let the Giants go with a Golden State Warriors theme
When the Heat dropped their initial Vice uniforms (2017?)
my immediate thought was “The Marlins should adopt the pastel blue/pink colorway yesterday.” It’s quintessentially Miami
The storytelling graphic explaining the championship years “neckline detail” does not have apostrophe catastrophes
so at least someone noticed it there but was it too late to fix it on the jersey tops
The White Sox city connect uniform looks like something a Sunday softball team would wear among friends who are die hard Bulls fans
City connect can’t go away soon enough
I’m pretty sure Left Eye wore this during TLC’s Crazy Sexy Cool tour in ‘94
This is some generic “urban” inspired crap
you can always tell the 1989 game from the snow
I try to pick photos that feature uniforms I liked as a kid in the 70’s or my teenage years in the 80’s
These white Oilers uniforms were one of my favorites
that was the last year Houston wore the thick long sleeve stripes before the were minimised for 1990
That winged sock logo looks a little familiar…
looks similar to the one they used in the 50s
maybe similar to the local for a certain blog site
Substitute “logo” for “local” in the above
I think they should be paying our favotite website royalties
These look like a giveaway jersey you’d get for going to a game on a Thursday afternoon in July on “Bulls Crossover Night”
Missed this comment before I replied below
I’m curious how long the “two caps” thing lasts frankly
but I’m just highly doubtful that they wear the second hat more than like 3 times
but the rest of this feels like a random Tuesday night fan giveaway promo or cheap knock-off rather than an MLB on-field uniform
I was at TJ Maxx recently and saw a Cleveland Cavs baseball jersey and chuckled when I saw it
and now basically the same thing will be gracing a major league ballfield
but the rest of this is incredibly uninspired… and like a lot of folks here
this seems to only exist to stroke Jerry Reinsdorf’s ego
According to sources at the unveiling event
the new city connects will be worn for Friday home games
while the old city connects will stay in rotation as an alternate
The Shitty connects have already wore out there welcome
This White Sox set is just cementing the fact that the well has run dry on fresh ideas
The initial Sox Connect set was actually pretty good
Opening Day win for the Cubbies on the road
When has it ever looked good to put writing in the cuff bands or pants stripes
The black warm up pants make this look just cheap
It already looked like a TJ Maxx knockoff Bulls wear but that really doesn’t help
I suspect this will be getting the white pants treat that so many others had
Trying to imagine what a Red Wings-themed Tigers CC would look like (given *their* common ownership)
and… it just doesn’t work in my mind
I’ll first try to take it on it’s own terms
City Connect 1.0 used the artistic conceit that the Hip Hop/Rap culture that adopted the White Sox uniform would now design the City Connect uniform
And it worked; it’s widely regarded as one of the best
The pants not being pinstriped is a mistake
The Winged Sock logo is long overdue to be incorporated into the White Sox logo set
the interior embroidery of “Chicago” makes it look like those shabby Bulls knock-off items that have the Bull snorting and “Windy City” printed inside the snort
The black cap is better than the red one by a fair amount
While the White Sox do have a history of using red as a color
they more often use black or navy blue as their primary non-white color
until Bill Veeck returned the team to a more traditional white and navy color combo in 1976
My ultimate verdict is probably one that Reinsdorf will not like — I have no plans to buy either one of those caps
an even bigger mistake would be for the Bulls to come up with a corresponding White Sox-inspired design
and especially the Bears are where Cubs and Sox fans come together.)
The apostrophe catastrophe is corrected on that big City Connect 2.0 board
“We’re going to wear unis that look like the team we share the area with.” Or dress up as your favorite NFL team up the interstate
But the crossover approach is a bit bizarre
A light call-out isn’t the worst thing
but this is all too on the nose and feels like it’s trying to co-op the Bulls’ cultural relevance
Sox fan here- I honestly feel like this could’ve been so much better with a few mods but as it stands am very disappointed
especially considering the likelihood that our previous City Connect unis (which were perfect) aren’t coming back
For one- it should have red pinstriped pants
Pinstripes are one uni element that should be carried through from top to bottom- it seems weird and abrupt for them to just stop at the waist and lead to solid pants
including during our last World Series winning season- this would’ve looked so much better with the jersey as a vest and the elements on the sleeves transferred over to the undershirt
and that dictates the appearance as much as anything
Love the hats and the updated old school flying sock logo but overall this feels like it could’ve been better than what we got
The White Sox did say that the initial City Classic uniforms would still be worn this year
Well that’s good news- earlier in the season it was reported that the old City Connects were done
I am pretty sure the original CC (version 1.0) ARE done
The only team to “keep” their original CC is the Red Sox
link
This article indicates that the original City Connect uniforms will remain
“Though the Southside City Connects won’t be worn this year
they’ll remain in the stable of available unis moving forward.”
And even he says they “wont be worn this year.”
Here’s my thought on that: when I was speaking to my MLB style guide source
I asked the source if the (old) CC’s for the eight teams getting new CC’s in 2025 were in the 2025 style guide
every team getting a new CC for 2025 still has the old CC listed in the style guide.”
So I suppose *technically* the old CC’s are “still in the stable,” I’m very confident they have already been retired
only the Red Sox have kept their old CC and moved it to the “Alternate” position in their uniform “locker.”
How bad are the White Sox that they need to borrow from the Bulls (a team that has been lousy for years)
I hate everything about the NBA-ification of MLB uniforms these days
I’ve gotten older and Nike has become more an more prominent
– They lost more games than any team in the history of baseball last year
Maybe we’re looking at this all wrong
awful uniforms are punishment for last year’s ineptitude
Had Nike included this explanation in the storytelling
Maybe other teams can use this as an incentive
Start winning or else Nike will create new CC uniforms
Another Lame effort brought to you by Nike and MLB
They honestly look like the type of jerseys that would find at a discount shop
how hard it is for a team that calls itself the White Sox to actually wear white socks
All of the main points have been expressed…looks like a TJ Maxx knock off by a company that doesn’t have licenses
a barrel-bottom scraping of sport-crossover gimmickry
1) The ChiSox have worn black and red in some of their finest looks
including one that took them to the 1959 World Series–which didn’t go great
link
2) Pinstripes have never looked right on the Bulls uniforms
and somehow the pins here are a Bulls look and not a White Sox look
3) The great lost opportunity–why don’t the White Sox just wear
link
The only positive is the use of the underused flying sock logo
If they can pretend to be the Bulls and not have to be the White Sox
the logo on the hats looks awful (like it is a broken foot in plaster)
the only thing done right is the Bulls wordmark and numbers
This is a very awkward look and a disgrace to both the Sox and the Bulls
I wish more cities coordinated aesthetics like colors and design elements
I wish the baseball cap for each city represented the entire city and all the teams
I know it’s similar to a University but I think that would be really cool
and half are “Colorado” and half are “Denver”
Imagine all 4 of them being the Colorado _____ and all using the State flag colors like Colorado State Football and Basketball do
but I think it would be cool to see “Cities Connect” ……
When Majestic was the manufacturer for both MLB and the NBA
you would see some baseball jerseys with the wordmarks/logos of NBA teams — v-necks
and even a handful of “rainbow guts” tops which were marketed as “retro warmup” jerseys
Which isn’t far from the truth; the warmup jerseys for the Bucks for much of the 80s were Rainbow Guts tops
It is weird having it in a split city though
but I doubt the Cubs would want to do something like this anyway
but overall I think its a fun idea and maybe we will see a few more crossovers like this…
although people will probably hate that idea
What’s the point of a professional baseball team “paying tribute” to another professional sports franchise in its city
Is the next logical step that the Bulls do a Chisox-themed uniform
I don’t think every team should do it for the other team’s in their cities
but I think this uniform actually looks cool
I mean if the Astros busted out a Houston Oilers type tribute uniform I bet that would be cool – and knowing this site – most people on here would love it
I like when team’s try new things and even if it isn’t amazing its just something they will wear sparingly and then move on from
Reminds me of a few years back when the Salt Lakes Bees (AAA) did an Utah Jazz crossover night
link
That was at least two Jazz uniform iterations ago though (!)
and fun if you like both teams (sort of like other promos like XYZ University night (but just promos):
link
The ChiSox would be better to leave this to the minors or a giveaway jersey and cap to kids at the game
I don’t know if this is visual vomit or diarrhea
This is just the White Sox admitting they’re completely irrelevant
I think that would help simplify the uniform
Sox and Bulls Fan here – Sell the teams
and my boy Mikey Dewhirst showed up at the playground
located in a leafy suburb of Canada’s capital
dribbling a ball and wearing this very jersey
but with large Starter logos in place of the swooshes
The 2025 version of me doesn’t think these should be anywhere near a major league field
And the Carolina Hurricanes take the field in Chicago
Totally agree it looks like a promotional giveaway or unlicensed knockoff merch
I could win a basketball with this red/black logo at the boardwalk
It would be more tolerable with no “southside” wording and red pants instead of black
I’ll start out by saying I find the Red/Black color scheme pretty much always a good solid
tough look… but that’s the last compliment I’ll give on this
I was stunned that it even passed muster/got approved since it was such a blatant crossover (or conflict of interest???) of Reinsdorf’s two teams
I’m stunned that the Bulls logo is actually being used and displayed
There’s always been the baseball fashion jerseys for all the other sports
MLB should be ashamed of themselves for approving this
And I can’t believe I forgot this: that “Southside” tape/striping/whatever they wanna call it on the sleeves (and then to continue it down the leg?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?) is quite possibly the dumbest
What’s wrong with a blatant crossover
and how could there even be a conflict of interest in this context
Sorry. I probably should have said Bulls shorts, with the classic diamond shape (link)
they might as well make them actual pajama pants which is what they look like
but now I am LMAO at this total pile of crap
Which only Nike and Reinsdorf could make CC2 even worse
The Bulls’ uniforms are such a strong design
it makes sense to see how they translate to baseball
There’s a part of me that wishes the White Sox would change their look as often as they did in the ’70s and ’80s
I have not liked the Chisox uniforms since removing the white & black stripes from the grey pants
Is this the Bulls front office’s company softball team uniform
2. link
This would have made more sense in the year that Michael Jordan played Spring Season ball for the White Sox
So the primary goal here is to remind fans that Jerry Reinsdorf is a bad owner of two teams
Why is it red when it’s paying tribute to a black uniform
Do we no long have the technology to match sleeves colors and patterns to the rest of a shirt
Why southside over and over and over again
The Sox play there (while actively trying to bail for Nashville or wherever)
but the Bulls (which is the whole point of this uniform) do not
This is the first of the recently-released baseball uniforms that isn’t improved by showing socks
The same white socks that would have helped the previous CC’s would at least be better here
As long as the pants weren’t red these are good
I like how they incorporated the Bulls into these
The one thing I don’t like about the Southside CC is that they’re black from head to toe
Good to hear they’re still left in as an alternate
I wish the Sox would bring back the Bill Veeck era softball uniforms with the collar
I love seeing those in the old games from the late 70s and early 80s
They should have made all the players wear 23 to make it official
Then they could all switch to 45 for a few games in the middle of the season before switching back to 23
so as a Texas Tech fan of the red and black (standing on the outside looking in w.r.t
they will sell the shit out of these… maybe my uni radar is completely off right now
And I’m sure they’ll sell well
especially to those who aren’t necessarily ChiSox fans
I wouldn’t buy either (and I wouldn’t even if I were a pale hose fan)
but clearly Nike hired a descendant of Phineas Taylor Barnum to run their marketing department
I’m sure they’ll sell a ton of these
It’s a bad look and should be beneath the standards of an MLB team
it’s all about separating fans from their money
As a lifelong White Sox fan (and White Sox uniform fan)
I have to say that the only things I like about these are the black cap and the socks
This would be really cool if an MiLB team did it
Took me a second to realize they were referencing 1906 and 1917 on the collars instead of 2006 and 2017
they probably could have dispensed with the front numeral
Winged sock on the sleeve should always face forward
but we all know how that goes with advertising patches
Should have had a primarily red stirrup – but most will wear the pants as yucky pajama style anyway …
there are far worse CCs (l’m looking at you Padres/Mets/Phils …)
So now that we have a White Sox CC version of a Bulls uniform
I suppose next we’ll have a Bears ‘Rivalries’ version of a White Sox CC version of a Bulls uniform…
Chicago uniforms need an upside down logo of a robot reading on a bench
It could be argued that in an age where proliferation of sports betting is so complete
I usually don’t like vests or faux-vests
I do like the pinstripes and the front lettering
They do really need a reversed flying-sock patch for the right shoulder
Not a fan of the taping (Southside and the dates)
These will be extremely successful from a fan-merchandise perspective
We probably should expect the next Bulls City Edition to be Sox inspired
link
Has anyone noticed the Adidas sneakers in the Nike promo picture
The 1959 Uniform is still their best set with the mismatched “Sox” on the cap and the uniform
Do we think that this is a sign they will increase the NOB size for all uniforms again next year
I know they increased them this year to look better
they still don’t seem as prominent as 2023 and earlier
I’m wondering if these new CC unis are using the template for 2026 and beyond
President Christopher Eisgruber has created a system of widespread racial discrimination
In 2020, Princeton president Christopher Eisgruber made headlines for declaring the university guilty of “systemic racism.” He meant systemic racism against racial minorities, but in truth, Eisgruber’s institution has practiced the opposite: systematically discriminated against supposed “oppressors,” like whites and males
Though most Princeton faculty support Eisgruber’s “anti-racism” policy
a faction of dissenters—a few dozen in number—has grown bolder in recent months
Princeton’s president is a vengeful administrator who punishes anyone who questions DEI orthodoxy
They have worked behind the scenes to assemble evidence of his discriminatory policies and hope the Trump administration will restore the principle of colorblind equality on campus
I sat down with one of these professors for a wide-ranging discussion about anti-Semitism
This conversation has been edited for length and clarity
Christopher Rufo: Harvard and Columbia have drawn the most attention for radical ideologies and anti-Semitism on campus
Set the stage for what’s happening here at Princeton
Professor: Anti-Semitism is really a symptom of a deeper malaise at Princeton
which is that the university decided to go woke and—as President Eisgruber wrote in the last few months of the first Trump administration—declare that we were “systemically racist.” But if we have been systemically racist
We’ve always been told that we have to give special treatment to women and certain demographic minorities
When our department was going to make a hire
A search officer has access to demographic data that the search committee does not have and can look at the short list and then look at the demographic data and say
“I think you should maybe consider this person or that person,” i.e.
we were told that 70 percent of the faculty are white
and that the faculty composition has to change to reflect the composition of the class of Princeton
We can’t hire a white guy.” This colleague went to the chair
that’s what they used to say about Jews here at Princeton: ‘We couldn’t hire them because they’re Jewish.’”
They see the way the wind is blowing and either go quiet or jump on the bandwagon
Rufo: And paint me a picture of President Eisgruber
He is really trying to make a reputation on this
Professor: Here’s what I can tell you: he’s very insecure about the fact that he doesn’t have a Ph.D.; he has a JD
He’s created a board of trustees that is entirely sycophantic
Each board member’s dream was to become a trustee of Princeton
and they will never cross him because they would never want to lose that position
This is the pinnacle of social ascension for them
Eisgruber was on an American Enterprise Institute panel
who are the conservatives on campus?” Eisgruber couldn’t come up with a single name
and the general atmosphere is not a good one
if you’re a conservative student or a Christian or a Zionist
Rufo: And who are the people Eisgruber has rewarded
she is the person who led the crazy stuff about Israel and Hamas on campus
We don’t have the same number of crazies here as they do at Columbia
We have a local chapter of Hamas supporters
They’re not penalized or punished in any way; they’re feted
It was something from Ellis Island that his son looked up
the bottom line is this: he’s bought into the ideology that certain people are victims and certain people are oppressors
you have a lot of cynical actors that follow the path of least resistance
Professor: I think he was initially very cynical because he wanted to be reappointed as president of the university and feared that he could have easily been replaced by a black woman
I think it started out being cynical and then
once he secured his reappointment for five years
he proceeded to drink the Kool-Aid and felt that he was getting all kinds of accolades because of it
There is an elite in this country that rewards itself for adopting certain ideologies
how are white and Jewish men on the faculty responding
Professor: Largely by being quiet and afraid
A scientific department had displayed photographs of all the previous department chairs for the last 70 years—all white men
The administration had removed them from the wall because someone found it objectionable that all these white men should be staring down at them
a number of those men were key in bringing black students to Princeton in the 1950s
But none of that history matters: it’s just a bunch of whites faces
Rufo: And how do you hope that this conflict between Trump and Princeton will resolve
Professor: I want this university severely punished for its unlawful behavior
I want discovery; I want all the emails to come out that will make it very evident that this university was engaged in illegal discrimination
I want President Eisgruber subpoenaed before Congress to have to account for not only anti-Semitism
but for DEI and for the “systemic racism” arguments that he’s made
I want him to be publicly put on the stand
That’s what ultimately will deeply embarrass this university

The location of the 14th century palazzo housing Vista Ostuni
The boutique hotel is situated in a 14th century palazzo that was originally built as a convent; 500 years later it was transformed by Sister Maria Raimonda Fuentes to shelter and provide education for underprivileged girls
In the early 20th century it transitioned to the Manifattura Tabacchi
a tobacco-processing factory employing around 600 female cigar rollers at its peak
The building has been vacant since then but now 28 rooms for guests will be created in this historic structure located just outside of the city’s center
close enough to walk over to explore but just out of the main routes of visitors to the city
The design by Milanese architect Roberto Murgia of RMA Studio will incorporate Apulian style
the history of the building and the beauty of the surroundings plus modern
benefitting from soaring ceilings including a glass ceiling that will fill the building with natural light
the pool is surrounded by olive trees and the landscaping will be designed by Belgian landscape designer Erik Dhont
known for his special touch working with native vegetation
The vivid cuisine of Puglia is famous throughout Italy; the dining options here will be designed by Andrea Berton
Berton al Vista will be the hotel’s fine dining restaurant
the casual daytime restaurant located in the garden; two bars will be located in the library and on the rooftop affording views over the countryside and of the streets of the White City
Given its proximity to other places of note in Puglia
hotel staff will also coordinate transfers and guides to see the Baroque city of Lecce
the terraced city of Matera and the stone trullis of Alberobello
curating bespoke experiences according to guests’ interests
And if that interest is lazing by the beach
transfers to local beach clubs will be offered as well
City Manager David White is presented with the traditional Santa Monica City road sign a she bids farewell to our fair city Credit: Courtesy photo
Bookending the beginning and the end of Tuesday’s City Council meeting was first a commendation from members of council and City staff to David White and then the appointment of a temporary ad hoc Council committee for the process of finding a full-time replacement
White will step down at the end of February after three-plus years serving as Santa Monica’s City Manager
a role that began in October 2021 after serving as City Manager of Fairfield for five years
as well as two years as Deputy City Manager of Berkeley
He is set to return to that position once again in Berkeley
Mayor Lana Negrete read the commendation in chambers
City team and community are profoundly grateful for the leadership of City Manager David White during extraordinary
challenging times … White demonstrated a deep commitment to local government and accountability
the ability to balance competing interests
work ethic and unwavering integrity,” she said
The office of Los Angeles County Supervisor Lindsey Horvath also sent a commendation
White himself became visibly emotional as he gave a brief speech
to this amazing city … I want to thank our amazing workforce and our employees
they're doing tremendous work every single day … I want to thank all of you
The city is moving in such a wonderful direction because of the vision that you have
And I just want to say thank you for everything that you do
I know it's a tremendous sacrifice to your families and to your lives
Former Santa Monica Mayor Gleam Davis made a thoughtful appearance as a public commentator to also wish White the very best
“I just wanted to come here and publicly thank David White for his service to this city
The city was facing unprecedented financial challenges
with integrity and with good spirits … and I think most importantly
really made an effort to try and be fair to everybody in the community,” Davis said
because not everybody in the community was fair to him
There were council members and members of this community who treated him abominably
And although I don't think that's why he's leaving
I think he’s owed an apology from all of us for that … It's a thankless job
It's 24/7 and he becomes the lightning rod for everything that everyone disagrees with
He has to be the liaison between Council dreams and staff reality sometimes … I want to wish him Virginia and [his daughter] Valencia all the best,” Davis said

SHREWSBURY ― The town is set to get another sweet tooth pleaser early next year when Crumbl Cookies opens a location in the White City Plaza
The sixth Crumbl location for Millbury's Dennis Sosa and his business partner Richard Howell
the shop will open next door to Jimmy's Tavern & Grill at the former Thai Place restaurant
The franchise's signature pink signage has started to take over the storefront windows
"We're moving on in!" announcing the plans
Sosa said Tuesday that the opening is expected to be in late January or early February
"We're tiling the flooring and will be bringing in the equipment by the end of the year."
Sosa explained that opening a Crumbl Cookies in Shrewsbury had always been part of the plan when he and Howell first considered their business partnership
The duo opened their first location at The Shops at Blackstone Valley in Millbury in May 2022
They are also considering a location in Leominster
"It's been amazing and it's really exciting," Sosa said
the Shrewsbury store will have no indoor seating and will operate every day except Sundays
Sosa said the menu will feature fan favorites
alongside creative offerings like key lime pie
JUST IN: The White Sox have revealed their Bulls-inspired City Connect uniforms 🔴⚫️ pic.twitter.com/QEl8s91SLK
and it's cool that they're honoring another of Chicago's sports institutions
since White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf also owns the Bulls
I also find it a bit funny that both the White Sox and Bulls are both working on two-decade championship droughts and are teaming up for this collaboration
The Bulls finished 10th in the Eastern Conference this season and lost their play-in game against the Miami Heat
They haven't made it past the first round of the NBA playoffs since 2015
Maybe that's not the kind of track record the White Sox should be honoring
the White Sox haven't made the postseason since losing 3–1 to the Houston Astros in the 2021 ALDS
they produced one of the worst seasons in MLB history
finishing with a pathetic record of 41–121
They've looked no better to begin this season
The city connect reveal is really just a distraction from how bad the White Sox truly are

The first-of-its-kind on-field uniform combines the stories of two iconic Chicago sports franchises -- the White Sox and the Bulls -- featuring pinstripes reflective of a shared design element for both teams
It's the first on-field jersey combining brand elements from both MLB and the NBA. The White Sox's threads were unveiled Monday, and they will debut Friday against the Houston Astros
"The Bulls were proud to contribute to the White Sox efforts and to be a part of creating the first-ever MLB jersey to feature NBA team marks," Bulls executive director of creative services Jon Shoemaker said in a news release
"While collaborating with the White Sox on the design
"We added visual elements that both teams share
like the 'Chicago' wordmark and our signature red and black."
The uniform features the Bulls letters across the chest and echoes the iconic White Sox wordmarks of the 1930s. Chicago White SoxMichael Jordan and the Bulls debuted the alternate black pinstripe uniforms in 1995
making them one of the more iconic threads in NBA history
The Bulls went a then-record 72-10 that season and won the championship
The franchise has continued to wear the uniforms
The wordmark is similar to what appears on the Bulls' current black statement uniforms and what the White Sox wore in the 1930s
A newly designed winged sock appears on the "bred" cap and sleeve
It draws inspiration from the White Sox era of the 1950s
On the inside of the hat is white with black pinstripes and "Southside" referencing the White Sox's first City Connect jersey
Bold red pinstripes on a black base are similar to the Bulls jersey
The White Sox are also the first MLB team with two separate City Connect caps
The second cap includes the red and black pinstripes from the uniform alongside four stars representing Chicago's heritage
In a nod to the White Sox's previous design
"Southside" appears around the sleeve and down the pant leg
The neckline of the uniform features the Bulls and White Sox's nine combined championships
The long-speculated uniforms have been met with a mixed reaction
Chicago's two worst franchises are now featured as one.
Haven't White Sox fans suffered enough
Was the worst season in MLB history in 2024 not enough
Did fans really need to be reminded that Jerry Reinsdorf has ruined not just one of your favorite franchises
Uncle Jerry has some jerseys to sell.
For two franchises that do have great uniforms
this crossover just flat-out misses the mark
The problem here is that it really doesn't make much sense
Why are we crossing over a baseball and basketball jersey
but the White Sox current colors are not red and black.
The White Sox and Bulls both have pinstripes
It's not as if nearly half of Major League Baseball teams have pinstripes on their jerseys
The one thing that both teams' uniform histories do have in common is the cursive 'Chicago' script
you'll take size 50 Times New Roman font across the chest and like it.
the video the White Sox used to announce this crossover is even worse
"They say legacy lives in the bones."
which is fitting because that's precisely what this jersey represents
The White Sox bones are about as strong as Eloy Jimenez's hamstring.
If you sent someone around both sides of town
Everyone hates Jerry Reinsdorf and this uniform sucks
because that's where this uniform's inspiration seemingly came from.
"Pinstripes aren't just lines here
Now reborn into a love letter of what's next."
How can anyone even say that with a straight face
The White Sox and Bulls have two of the worst future outlooks in all of sports
and the White Sox are lucky if they can win one game a week.
the White Sox used Luis Robert in pretty much all of the marketing
that should make throwing all of this advertising out the window a little easier.

The biggest news of the day was saved for last
Martin Scorsese is set to direct “Devil in the White City” with Leonardo DiCaprio to star in the lead role

Based on the true crime non-fiction book by Erik Larson
“Devil in the White City” tells the story of an architect and a serial killer
both trying to leave their mark on the city
and the true events that changed their lives forever at the 1893 Chicago World Fair
Last August, producer Stacy Sher surprised many by claiming that Scorsese’s long-gestating project was still very much happening. She added that everyone was still involved
including Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio who were
and they’re now set for their seventh film together
“Devil in the White City,” based on a spectacular book
is the one Scorsese project I wanted to get made these last 20 years
history and mystery — Scorsese and DiCaprio could knock this one out of the park
is currently working on a wide array of projects
and what might be his next film is still very much up to debate
Some of the possibilities include “Devil in the White City,” “Home,” “The Life of Jesus,” and “Sinatra.”
