Leila Rahimi 0:01
Rahimi Harrison-Groney. Really, really love listening to you guys. You do a phenomenal job. Middays 10-2 on 104.3 The Score. 1-2 pitch from Taylor. Yeah, buddy!
Marshall Harris 0:15
White Sox come from behind in the ninth and take game two of this series 2-1 over the Mariners.
Mark Grote 0:25
I hadn't heard that phrase in a minute. That is John Triffin on the call CHSN. Gordon Beckham a part of it as well in Seattle. And if you stayed up, you had to stay up late last night to watch a very tight White Sox and Mariners game. Sox win 2-1 the final because they scored the all-important two runs in the ninth inning. And held the Mariners to just a single hit. It was one of those very tight games. There was manufactured offense.

What was the outcome of the White Sox vs. Mariners game?

Mark Grote 0:55
Anthony Kaye and the entire Sox bullpen get it done. Grant Taylor comes on with an incredible save. He looked at nails. And now they're able to split the series and rubber matches today.
Yeah, buddy!
Mark Grote 1:10
Just one of those where you were rewarded late if you wanted to stay up and watch the White Sox try to get the job done. The double steal, there were a lot of smart decisions that were going on in the game for the Sox yesterday.
Marshall Harris 1:23
Yeah, I know ultimately it may not look this way, but I want to say Will Venable did well. such a great job in managing that game especially late the antithesis of manners mariners manager dan wilson dan wilson in the ninth inning let me just set this up for you guys so he's got luis castillo who's been demoted from starter to bullpen and now he's piggybacking in this era and i guess he was trying to like get through the rest of the game with luis castillo who's not out here closing games on the regular right never so he goes for a mound visit after a walk and a hit by pitch to start the ninth inning, and Colson Montgomery up. And he tries to go back out there. Can't do that. To put another pitcher in the game to bring in his closer, and they're like, no, you know, that's baseball 101.
Marshall Harris 2:11
You can't do that.
Leila Rahimi 2:12
Yeah, I'm just like, no, no, sir. No, sir.
Mark Grote 2:15
Yeah, and there was confusion in the booth because they're like, well, there's a three batter minimum, sir. Like, you have to acknowledge.
Marshall Harris 2:22
He was trying to pull him. He got him out, though, right, Marshall? He did get him out. You know what happened immediately thereafter? Chase Mydraw says, hey, I'm not going to hit the ball too hard, but I will hit it to the right spot. Yes. And it sneaks into right field. And the beauty of the double steal, Layla, because you pinch hit. I was worried. They're like, oh, you're pinch hitting for Murakami, and that's only the tying run, not the go-ahead run.
Mark Grote 2:42
Pinch runner, yeah.
Marshall Harris 2:43
Yeah, pinch running. I'm sorry.
Mark Grote 2:44
And he walked to begin the inning, which is usually indicative of somebody scoring in the inning.
Marshall Harris 2:50
Yeah. And so, twofold here. Dan Wilson did not bring his closer in quick enough. But also, Chase Mydroth getting it done. And then Andrew Benintendi, I don't know if you know, he's got the biggest free agent contract in White Sox history.
Leila Rahimi 3:01
Been hearing that for a few years now, actually.
Marshall Harris 3:03
He's actually been playing like it.
Mark Grote 3:05
Big if true.
Marshall Harris 3:06
Of late. Yeah. He gets the next run through off of Josh Naylor's glove at first base as he tries to make the play. And I was like, this is so great. I stayed up so late to watch this game. And the White Sox took the lead. And then I had the same thought I had in the group text, if you remember, back on Sunday. Oh, but Sir Anthony Dominguez. And then he doesn't even come in the game. And I'm like, oh, this game's over. And it was 13 pitches? Heat.
Leila Rahimi 3:30
13 pitches? Hit it if you can. I'm just going to bring the noise.

How did the White Sox manage to come from behind in the ninth inning?

Leila Rahimi 3:34
Grant Taylor made easy work of the Mariners. This is why, again, another revelation for the White Sox. You don't usually win the game where your first base runner is in the fourth inning. You don't usually win the game where your first hit is in the fifth inning. You usually don't win the game if you're the White Sox if Josh Naylor is playing in the game.
Mark Grote 3:55
Aw, Josh. Crap, you're right about that. Which is why... Almost 7 RBI in a game, Josh Naylor.
Leila Rahimi 4:01
Actually, it was funny, Layla, because during the game they posted the graphic of Josh Naylor.
