White Sox reach new low, again, with bases-loaded collision that injures Miguel Vargas

For any MLB team, a collision between defenders with the bases loaded is an embarrassing misplay. For the Chicago White Sox, it's just another game in what is shaping up to be the worst season in MLB history.

Ignominy arrived yet again in Chicago's game Tuesday against the Baltimore Orioles. The situation: bases loaded with two outs in the bottom of the second inning, with the Orioles already ahead 4-0. The batter: Eloy Jiménez, once a pillar of the White Sox's future, now an outfielder they traded away as a rental.

The play: an easy fly ball into shallow left field.
