First pitch is 6:40 Central with partly cloudy weather around 73 degrees. The opponent site is South Side Sox, with an alternate non-SB site called Sox on 35th and staff likened to Logan's Run.

Tonight's Sox starter, Aaron Civale, has been traded midseason each of the past three years. He's pretty mediocre as an MLB pitcher, with the usual disclaimer that a mediocre MLB pitcher is better at baseball than most of us will every be at anything. That said, his mediocrity means the Twins will probably sign him next year after they've traded Joe Ryan. He throws in the low-90s, relying usually on his cutter, sinker, slider, and curve.

That might mean paying a little extra for games, $29.99 a month instead of the $19.99 it currently is. Hopefully the "regional blackout" will still be over.

The team exists to serve the stadium, not the other way around. Same as it ever was.
