You hit the nail on the head. The rivalry was so intense from the start until around 2009-2010. It has not been anywhere the same since. Sure fans still get into it, but its much closer to just a regular game than a serious rivalry. That first decade or so when interleague play started, these games were like the World Series. Even Peter Gammons said one year that no city/interleague rivalry was bigger than Cubs/White Sox. Yankees/Mets didn't even come close. Kinda sad that feeling is gone now.
Legendary rivalry. Always a joy to see these two go at it.
...Well, almost always.
And Now Morel’s HR can be added to this list ;)
Absolutely! Awesome video btw- must’ve taken a while to edit these all together 😁
Overrated punk will be outa baseball in 2 years
go sox ⚫⚪
Only thing swisher ever did lol but let’s not forget that epic walkoff he had against the tigers sometime in august 2008 I believe.
Forgot how much i HATE the Cubs. Go White Sox!
I agree I'm a White Sox ⚾ fan also I hate the Cubs also
Should be like the Yankees with that small a stadium
The best part of the series is both teams have historically sucked so it’s something to root for
The last good moment for the cubs against the Sox before February 2023 was in 2009?

How many grand slams did these teams hit against each other?! Also, it's too bad that none of these games were played at the Old Comisky!
The cell is the most even field and you got dudes hitting 350ft homers into deep left. Wtf wrigley
I’m a sox fan, why tf is wrigley so damn small. Just like yankee, just like Fenway, tbh kinda bs
Because, they are old stadiums. The newer ones are bigger.
As a Sox fan, I actually love Wrigley Field. Da Cell sucks tbh.
I hated Carlos Lee. Always was a Cub killer and he always played for our rivals. It felt like he legitimately hit home runs just to piss me off
I like how you say that what’s going to happen before the clip. Surprise and suspense are not really my thing
One moment I think you forgot was the last game for Kerry Wood
