00:00Out comes Will Venable and what's going on here? Nobody's working up in the pen. He already came out. The
00:06pitching coach did. Right. The trainer didn't follow him. No. And that's what the first base umpire Andy Fletcher, the
00:12crew chief, he's telling Will Venable, you come out, you've got to take him out of the game. Right. There
00:18was some non-communication here, at least, in the White Sox dugout.
00:25Unless the first time did the trainer come out and we didn't see it? I just saw one guy run
00:30out. This was the pitching coach earlier. Yeah. After a double hit. Zach Bove, who went out. Unless they thought
00:35it didn't count because it was an injury. So they're not going to force Will Venable to make a move.
00:41That's interesting. Because they intercepted him before he went to the mound. Stephen Vogt's going to say, wait a minute.
00:46He's got a gripe here, too. Andy Fletcher. And now they're warming somebody up in the pen, too, just in
00:50case, because they understand what we know.
00:52Chicago's made a second visit to the mound. The pitcher must pitch to this batter and then the pitcher must
00:58be removed. Interesting. He must pitch to the batter? I don't understand why he has to pitch to this batter,
01:04though. The bat at bat hasn't started yet. And that's maybe what Stephen Vogt's getting clarification. Evidently, that's the rule.
01:13This is only given time. Not that it would matter, anyway, because he'd have time to warm up on the
01:16field.
01:17But this is a nightmare for Chicago. Yes, it is. They went through last night. You're exactly right. It's not
01:22an injury, so he would only get his eight warm-up pitches. So this actually is helping them out.
01:27But I think getting clarification in this particular case is probably a little bit more paramount. And that may be
01:31when Stephen Vogt is asking, hey, are we sure this is the...
01:35To my understanding, the pitcher immediately had to come out. Now the crew chief, Andy Fletcher, has gone to Will
01:40Venable. I have a feeling he's maybe telling him he's not going to pitch to Reese Hoskins.
01:44Reese is going to go to the dugout, and that's going to be it for Noah Schultz.
01:48Didn't see that happening on my scorecard this early.
01:52Five batters into the game, and Noah Schultz is done. And not because of an injury.
01:57Correction. The White Sox came out to two different hitters. Therefore, the pitcher must be removed in the same inning.
02:04Therefore, the pitcher must be removed.
02:05There you go. That's what I thought.
02:06Out is Noah Schultz. We'll tell you about the new pitcher who just got called up today when we come
02:12back.
02:12We'll tell you about the new pitcher.
