But who's stopping you?

I mean, think about what you just said.

If Noah Schultz and the White Sox can take down Seth Lugo, Seth Lugo, who was basically the star outside of Adio Henio Suarez of our stalking segment last year, Candidates We Wanted the Cubs to Trade For at the Deadline.

lugo famously signs that extension right around there made himself a lot of money he should he deserved it he's had some really consistent years but think about that comment and and if we had said that last year at this time would we have even believed ourselves no and that's how that's how it shows the progress that the white socks have made in such a short amount of time after being in the mud to be able to flip it like this even now this is incredibly encouraging

Well, and when your bench is cooking and when you're able to call up the right guy to break that drought that I mentioned, you know, San Diego, Hill gets the first pinch hit home run that the Sox had seen since 2024.

And I believe that was Luis Robert in a pinch hit situation, which means he's a regular hitter who had just gotten a day off.

And then he does it again this time around.

Listen to what he had to say after the game when it came to just being ready and getting ready and staying ready.

What's it like collectively to be on this team at this time?

What's it like collectively?

That's Derek Hill after the game.

You heard Bruce Levine there as well.

And there was this from Brooke Fletcher, who also interviewed him for CHSN.

She posted on Twitter, Derek Hill told me he journals after every at-bat, tracking what opposing pitchers throw, how the pitches look, and the result.

Before facing Matt Strom tonight, he went back to his notes from when he faced him earlier this season in Kansas City.

His note?

Slider or something down.

Look in.

Make a pull early and get it out front.

Slider down and in.
