1st July 1883
The fans of the White Sox cannot wish for the season to end soon enough as their team continues to struggle. The month of June didn't see any improvement as they managed to win only 9 games from the 28 played. This sees them rooted to the AL table a full 21 games behind the leaders and out of the pennant race with only 20 games left to play.
The month started with a poor run as they went 1-2 on the road to both the Baltimore Orioles and the Washington Nationals before going 1-2 at home to the Detroit Wolverines. The form picked up a little as they went 2-1 on the road to both the Cleveland Blues and the Boston Americans before it failed completely. The team were swept 0-3 by three teams. This was at home to the Louisville Eclipse, on the road to the Philadelphia Athletics and at home to the Baltimore Orioles. They finished the month with a 1-2 home series loss against Washington Nationals followed by a loss in the first game of the road trip to the Detroit Wolverines.
Very few players covered themselves with glory during the month of June so we have decided that we will not be highlighting any performances this month.
The White Sox suffered a blow during the month as they lost 2 players to injury. Ed Dundon went down with rotator cuff inflammation which put him out for the rest of the season as he will be out for 2 months. They also lost Second Baseman Jimmy Hallinan late in the month as he was diagnosed with Concussion that will see his season finished. He will be sidelined for 2 months.
The team lost Right Fielder George Ewell to the Detroit Wolverines via waivers but managed to boost the pitching with both Flip Lafferty and Rynie Wolters coming in on waivers.
