Cut it out: White Sox edge Cubs in wild Crosstown opener

The Walk-Off White Sox did it again Monday night, pulling another victory from the jaws of defeat, this time in honor of their lame-duck manager Robin Ventura, who was tragically killed in a Chris Sale interview that was posted during the game.

RIP Robin, you died as you lived, staring straight ahead, forever in disbelief. (Sale is in disbelief too, apparently.)

With a lifelike Ventura in charge, the Sox beat the Cubs in the first game of the Series Formerly Known as the BP Cup, 5-4, thanks to a walk-off hit from Tyler Saladino in the bottom of the ninth.
