White Sox Minor League Update: June 21, 2025
No, Luis Reyes didn't earn a Gatorade bath on Saturday and saw his win evaporated by the bullpen, but he sure deserved one. | Luis Reyes/Instagram Charlotte Knights 4, Gwinnett Stripers 1 (Statcast Box) Not only did the Knights wrap this one up early, with four runs in the first four innings, a bullpen game squelched a tuff Stripers O, with the top of the lineup manned by Jurickson Profar and Jarred Kelenic. It was also a lucky effort, given Charlotte was out-hard hit by Gwinnett, 10-5. Thanks, C/Koreys (Julks and Lee), for your two-run shots made the difference in this one! Charlotte advances to 36-38. Birmingham Barons 7, Columbus Clingstones 3 Here's how good Shane Murphy has been in the White Sox system this year: Three runs over six innings on Saturday raised his ERA ... to 1.62. Lawdy. Murphy somehow has lost three games this year while compiling a 1.29 ERA heading into this start, so he was due a win (his sixth in 2025) in a bum game — his first having given up as many as three runs in a game this season. For once, Murphy's offense bailed him out, as he left in after the sixth down, 3-2, with late rallies delivering the southpaw a no-decision. Advertisement Otherwise, this win came courtesy of another great game at the top of the order from Rikuu Nishida and William Bergolla (a combined 4-for-8, four runs, double). Birmingham improves to 38-30. Winston-Salem Oat Milkers 6, Rome Emperors 5 Despite the tight win, the 26-41 Dash Oat Milkers never trailed in this one, and how often can that be said this season; a fair spot fewer times than 26, I'd guess. Every Dash hitter tapped at least one hit but catcher Jackson Appel, and in fact five of the nine hitters got on base twice today. Sure, the pitching did just enough to keep W-S out of the fire, but when you're at 26 wins starting the second half of the season, don't quibble. Oh, for bonus video content, how about the power-packed Jeral Perez and his 13th homer of the season? Charleston RiverDogs 6, Kannapolis Cannon Ballers 4 (10 innings) As this update is being prepared, Kanny starting pitcher Luis Reyes is typing a sharply-worded memo to White Sox brass asking for a better bullpen, one that will save one of his great outings rather than blow it. Too late for tonight, of course, but not for lack of Reyes' effort: an affiliate-rarity seven innings, all of them scoreless, four hits, five Ks, a walk. AARGGHH. Connor Housely and Jonathan Clark, you better be buying dinner tonight. Advertisement Kannapolis has officially entered Can't Win For Losing status, dropping a ninth straight game and tumbling to 32-36. ACL Diamondbacks 6, ACL White Sox 5 (9 innings, orignally scheduled for 7) We just have time to squeeze in one more late collapse tonight, so let's head to steamy AZ and watch our Complex Sox kick this one away. Jeremy Gonzalez had a rough start to the game, giving up four runs in the third. However, the bullpen held up for five innings to come, keeping the Dbacks scoreless while clawing back into the game. In fact, by the top of the seventh, and Alexander Albertus double resulted in the lead run, 5-4, after Albertus was pushed to third on a Grant Smith fly out and home after a throwing error on a comebacker to ACL-D hurler Austin Pope. Alas, a single-SB-double tied the game in the bottom of the seventh, the frame that should have marked game's end; the damage came against Complex Sox pitcher Gray Thomas, but with two on and two outs Gray coaxed a K to move the game into extras. In the first three half-innings, two oddities kept the game scoreless. In the bottom of the eighth, the Complex Sox scored a wild sequence on an attempted sac bunt with runners on first and second, going 3-5-4 for a third-to-first double play. Then, in the top of the ninth the White Sox saw a runner cut down at home (apparently, the play-by-play details have a gap) on an attempted first-and-third double steal. Advertisement The loss that dropped the ACL Sox to 20-16 came rather mundanely, with a single to drive in the ghost runner in the bottom of the ninth. More from

Tony Brosnan, Seán O'Shea and Míchéal Burns start ahead of Clifford, Ruairí Murphy and Graham O'Sullivan. Advertisement Tom O'Sullivan and Mike Breen also return to the starting team, coming in for Paul Murphy and Tadhg Morley in defence. Morley and Ruairí Murphy are the only two of those who drop out of the team, named on the bench.

Kerry change over a third of their team for Munster SFC Final against Clare
Keeper Shane Ryan misses out entirely on the match-day squad due to the gash to his knee he suffered in that game. Dr Crokes' Shane Murphy comes in as a straight replacement, with Beaufort's Seán Coffey stepping up to the understudy's role. In defence the Kerry management has made two changes, albeit more from a position of strength as they've been able to welcome back Tom O'Sullivan (who slots in at corner-back in his traditional number 4 shirt) and Mike Breen from injury and illness. Austin Stacks defender Dylan Casey retains his place in the starting fifteen, despite O'Sullivan's return, moving from number 4 to number 2 in place of the injured Paul Murphy of Rathmore. Breen takes the place of Tadhg Morley who came into the side for the game against the Rebels in his absence. Breen, who had pretty much nailed down that position over the course of the National League, reclaiming it at first time of asking. The most radical surgery to the side is to the half-forward line, which is entirely different to what started against Cork in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. Paudie Clifford's suspension robs the Kingdom of their best player so far this season, but Seán O'Shea getting a first championship start is a very replacement to be able to call upon at number 11 At number 10 Ruairí Murphy, who didn't last the full seventy minutes on Leeside, is replaced by Tony Brosnan, while Micheál Burns comes into the side at number 12 in place of the injured Graham O'Sullivan. The full-forward line remains unchanged, as does midfield which sees Joe O'Connor line out alongside Barry 'Dan' O'Sullivan in the continuing absence of Na Gaeil's Diarmuid O'Connor through injury. Amongst the replacements Cathal Ó Beaglaoich of An Ghaeltacht (a midfielder), Keith Evans of Keel (a half-forward) and Cillian Trant of St Senans (another half-forward) also step up. Jack O'Connor has named a squad of 29 for Sunday, instead of the usual match-day 26. ADVERTISEMENT Learn more Kerry team (v Clare) 1. Shane Murphy (Dr Crokes) 2. Dylan Casey (Austin Stacks) 3.

The 2025 Irish Aberdeen-Angus Association (IAAA) All Ireland Finals are set to take place on the opening day of the 2025 National Ploughing Championships in Screggan, Tullamore, Co. Offaly. The announcement was made at the AGM of the National Ploughing Association (NPA) today (Thursday, May 1), by the NPA managing director Anna May McHugh. She said: 'The NPA is absolutely thrilled to have such a prestigious livestock event coming to the Ploughing this year with upwards of 100 animals expected in this competition alone. Univet are again onboard as title sponsor and the All-Ireland Champion will secure the prestigious All-Ireland Championship Trophy – an eye-catching piece of silverware dating back to 1902. The competition is open to all pedigree-registered Aberdeen Angus animals in the Republic of Ireland and the numerous classes, including Junior, Intermediate and Senior Championships, aim to bring together the best of IAAA cattle from the best herds in the country. Whilst the All Ireland Finals take place on the opening day of the Ploughing, there is a full programme of events planned for 'Ploughing Week' in the Aberdeen Angus Tent including: National Youth Development Final, where young livestock handlers from a number of age categories will be doing everything from showing, presenting, stock judging, and interviews on Wednesday. A National Judging Conference, which will incorporate showing, etiquette, and basic-principle talks and classification demonstration addressing the basics of animal physiology, as well as senior judges giving countering arguments on ways they place line-ups of cattle also on Wednesday. Demonstrations showing qualities of Aberdeen Angus and Classification Demos on Thursday. Officials from the Irish Aberdeen Angus Association, including breed secretary Shane Murphy and president John Tait, met with members of the NPA recently on the De Cogan Aberdeen Angus Farm in Co. Cork to finalise details of the event programme before the National Ploughing AGM today. The NPA's exhibition team reported at the AGM that the exhibition arena spaces are 'filling up fast as the 'early bird' package is due to expire in the next few days'. According to the NPA: 'Stand prices starting for less than €1,000 allows many small companies a huge opportunity to sell, promote and network to hundreds of thousands of potential customers and many international buyers as well.' Ploughing 2025 will take place from September 16-18 in Screggan, Tullamore, Co. Offaly.
