Hall of Famer Frank Thomas expressed his frustration with the Chicago White Sox’s 21-game losing streak, stating that as manager, he would throw a postgame tantrum with reporters to hold the players accountable. In a postgame show on NBC Sports Chicago, Thomas emphasized the need for a change in attitude, urging the players to “snap” and kick over the postgame spread in frustration. The former White Sox player, who hit 521 home runs in his career, emphasized that it was time to take action and not just rely on excuses like “we’re trying” or “working hard.” Thomas expressed his disappointment in the team’s performance, stating that they had become the laughing stock of baseball with their losing streak. As a Hall of Famer elected in 2014, Thomas drew on his experience to highlight the importance of taking a stand and making it clear that losing was not acceptable. The Chicago White Sox’s losing streak has tied the American League record set by the 1988 Baltimore Orioles, bringing increased scrutiny and pressure on the team to turn things around. Despite his strong words, Thomas remains hopeful that the team can find a way to break the streak and regain their competitive edge on the field.
