My alphabeticalish player-by-player review — @soxnerd style — of the 2024 White Sox continues with MICHAEL SOROKA:
A few gems from Soroka’s 2024:
*Soroka’s six relief outings of at least five strikeouts in 2024 were tied with Melido Perez (1991) for the second-most in Sox history behind Goose Gossage’s nine in 1975
*Soroka’s 10 losses in 2024 were the most ever by a Sox pitcher with a .000 winning percentage
*On Sept. 28 at Detroit, the righty threw three perfect innings of relief with five strikeouts. The only other Sox pitcher to do that was Earl Harrist on Aug. 6, 1947.
*On April 20, Soroka’s pickoff was the first by a Sox pitcher in Philadelphia since Billy Pierce picked off Ferris Fain to end the third in a 2-1 loss to the A’s on July 14, 1952 at Shibe Park.
