White Sox owner Reinsdorf 'extremely unhappy' with team's play
Chicago White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf isn't pleased with his team stumbling through one of the worst seasons in MLB history.
The White Sox lost 6-4 to the Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday, dropping them to 33-114 on the campaign. They're on pace to exceed the 1962 New York Mets' 120 losses, thereby setting the modern-era record for most defeats in a season.
"Everyone in this organization is extremely unhappy with the results of this season, that goes without saying," Reinsdorf said in a statement obtained by Sox Machine's James Fegan.
"This year has been very painful for all, especially our fans. We did not arrive here overnight, and solutions won't happen overnight either. Going back to last year, we have made difficult decisions and changes to begin building a foundation for future success."
The White Sox have lost 15 straight contests at Guaranteed Rate Field and are 18-57 at home this season.
Despite the continued struggles on the field, Reinsdorf celebrated the people who show up to every game.
"What has impressed me is how our players and staff have continued to work and bring a professional attitude to the ballpark each day despite a historically difficult season. No one is happy with the results, but I commend the continued effort. I expect to have more to say at the end of the season."
