[2:17] Ball go far, team go far remains true for the White Sox. The White Sox hit seven home runs this weekend, including two walk-offs thanks to Jake Rogers and Tristan Peters. The White Sox are on pace to hit 217 home runs this season. Will they do it?

[12:12] The home runs are great, but the White Sox also went 2-for-19 with runners in scoring position this weekend. Will their inability to hit for contact in these situations be their downfall?

[16:36] Congrats to Sam Antonacci, who sets the single-season record for more HBP.

[21:45] What's going on with the trade acquisitions? It's early, but Luis Castillo and Huascar Brazoban's struggles are a concern.
