Barnstorming across a segregated United States from 1908-1940, pitcher John Donaldson won over 400 games and collected over 5,000 strikeouts, but his baseball career became lost in history until historian Pete Gorton came to the rescue. Chuck Garfien speaks with Gorton who has spent the last 20 years uncovering Donaldson's extraordinary career. Donaldson later became the first official black scout in the majors with the White Sox, scouting Willie Mays, Hank Aaron and Ernie Banks. He's up for induction into the baseball Hall of Fame in December.

How do the White Sox turn their offense around and how quickly can they do it? New director of hitting Ryan Fuller shares a lot of insight about his approach to hitting, his experience as a hitting coach with the Baltimore Orioles and how he'll improve the White Sox offense in both the major and minor leagues. Fuller talks about his success stories working with Anthony Santander, Ryan O'Hearn and new White Sox outfielder Austin Slater, how Luis Robert Jr. and Andrew Vaughn can improve next season, the messaging he will have to hitters throughout the White Sox organization and more.

Chuck Garfien brings Jason Coyle onto the podcast to answer questions from Chicago sports fans about the launch of the Chicago Sports Network. Coyle is asked about distribution issues with Comcast, why there haven’t been carriage agreements with YouTube TV and Hulu, the launch of the CHSN streaming app, the antenna experience, if Ozzie Guillen will be back on pre and post game shows and more.
