Chicago white sox | off-duty chicago police officer fatally shot in gage park, chicago white sox, chicago white sox | ‘that feeling hasn’t gone away yet’: chicago white sox rookies nick nastrini and jonathan cannon eye 2nd starts.
PHILADELPHIA — Jonathan Cannon had a question for catcher Korey Lee on Friday afternoon while in the bullpen at Citizens Bank Park.
“Does this ever get old?” Cannon asked.
Lee assured the Chicago White Sox rookie pitcher that it doesn’t.
Cannon and fellow rookie pitcher Nick Nastrini have had a week to remember while making their major-league debuts.
“It’s been a whirlwind, it’s been crazy,” Cannon told the Tribune on Friday. “It’s been super exciting.”
Manager Pedro Grifol loved the composure both pitchers displayed.
“This is the big stage, they handled it well,” Grifol said Friday. “They weren’t timid. They attacked. It was pretty nice to see.”
While the Sox look for answers for an offense that entered Saturday having been shut out seven times , the most in major-league history through 19 games, they hope that Nastrini and Cannon can be part of the formula bolstering the rotation.
Nastrini will start Sunday’s series finale against the Philadelphia Phillies. Cannon is slated to start Monday against the Minnesota Twins at Target Field.
“We’re going to stay on point for one or two times around, see what we got,” Grifol said. “We’ll keep it up for now and see what happens.
“We’re not getting too far ahead of ourselves. We’ll just run it again and see where we’re at. If it continues to show itself the right way, we’ll run it again.”
Grifol said every time Cannon and Nastrini pitch early on it’s “uncharted waters.”
“So let’s not get too far ahead of this thing, and enjoy the day and who’s going to start today and see what happens today and get after it tomorrow again,” Grifol said. “And keep evaluating. That’s the most important part of this thing. Keep teaching, developing, evaluating and find ways to win baseball games.”
Nastrini and Cannon kept the Sox in the game in their starts.
Nastrini allowed two runs on three hits with five strikeouts and two walks in five innings in Monday’s 2-0 home loss to the Kansas City Royals.
“It’s good to have fulfilled a childhood dream, and now it’s just, stay here and keep doing what I can to help this ballclub win,” Nastrini said Wednesday morning at Guaranteed Rate Field.
He retired the first 11 batters he faced, the longest game-opening streak by a Sox starter in his major-league debut in the expansion era (since 1961).
He had a “welcome to the big leagues” moment on his final pitch of the outing when Bobby Witt Jr. drove a ball to deep center with the bases loaded and two outs in the fifth inning. On some days, it might have been a grand slam, but Dominic Fletcher made the catch on the warning track.
“If I’m pitching in Charlotte, that ball’s like 50 feet deep (in the stands),” Nastrini said with a laugh. “I was like, ‘Oh, dang, he kind of got that one.’ I turned around and saw Dom drifting back and I saw his body language like he was going to catch the ball.
“I was able to take a breath for a second and be like, ‘All right, that ball’s not going over the fence.’ ”
While Nastrini created memories he’ll cherish, he’s also looking ahead to what’s next.
“What happened, happened,” Nastrini said. “It’s in the past. I’ve got to focus on who we are playing next. So I’ve got to keep working and doing my job every single day.
“That’s what I’m getting paid to do, that’s what I’m here to do — get better every single day and try to prepare, bring some energy into the clubhouse and dugout and try to win ballgames.”
Cannon was scheduled to start Tuesday against the Royals, but that game was postponed because of rain. He got the ball in Game 1 of Wednesday’s doubleheader, allowing one run on three hits with three strikeouts and one walk in five innings. He did not factor in the decision in the 4-2 loss .
“It was pretty surreal because I had the rainout the day before,” Cannon said of walking into the clubhouse for the first time as a major-leaguer. “It was pretty crazy, waiting all day and then it gets pushed back. I was like, ‘Man, I’ve got to sleep on it again.’
“But it was a pretty surreal moment and that feeling hasn’t gone away yet.”
One of his favorite parts of Wednesday was catching up with his family on the field after the game.
“I know they’ll never forget it, and I definitely won’t either,” Cannon said.
He is “taking it one day at a time” as he gets ready for his second start.
“Trying to stay in my routine and treat it like another start and be prepared for Monday,” Cannon said.

I love when Spy x Family veers into slice-of-life drama. I like seeing super duper capable spy Loid Forger and lethal assassin Yor navigate mundane activities like cooking dinner or planning date nights. I’m giddy when telepathic Anya uses her powers in a dodgeball match. I’m sure there are fans that prefer the more action-heavy, spy-thriller episodes, but I like when studios Wit and Cloverworks keep it chill. With 20 episodes a season, the anime has the space to deftly balance these two tones.
Spy x Family Code: White tries to dance that dance without the same rhythm. The new movie clocks in at almost two hours, but no matter what type of Spy x Family fan you are, only one half of it will be a delight and the other will be a slog.
[ Ed. note: This review contains some spoilers for Spy x Family ]
In Spy x Family Code: White , the Forger family goes on vacation to an idyllic mountain village. There is a big ulterior motive for this: Anya’s newest class assignment involves cooking a dessert, and if she bakes the best dessert, she’ll get a coveted Stella, the school’s premier academic prize. And since she needs as many Stellas as possible to secure a spot at an elite party, where her family can meet the prime minister, Loid decides the best strategy is to research the headmaster’s favorite dessert hands-on.
At the same time, the future of Operation Strix is up in the air. Loid really wants Anya to win this contest so that he can have leverage to stay on the assignment. Oh, and, thanks to a misunderstanding, Yor thinks Loid might be cheating on their (fake) marriage.
Directed by Spy x Family episode director Takashi Katagiri, the first half of the movie involves a lot of lighthearted shenanigans, with some spy stuff sprinkled in. It’s my ideal ratio. Loid, Yor, Anya, and precognitive family dog Bond traverse across this mountain village, which looks like something out of a Hallmark movie, looking for ingredients so that the chef at the restaurant can make the dessert. This, of course, also involves Loid using his spy-trained marksmanship to beat a carnival game so he can snag an elusive bottle of orange liqueur and Yor accidentally kicking Loid out of a ferris wheel car with her super strong assassin legs when he tries to kiss her.
And while the shenanigans are happening, there are also some nice threads about family and spending time with one another. Loid wants to handle everything by himself, but Yor insists that they need to do things together as a family, because that’s what will be important in the end. Anya’s worried about Operation Strix falling apart and possibly losing her family because of it.
But there are hints of a larger plotline, involving the military of Ostania and some crucial piece of intel that could ignite a war. At first it’s woven into the background, but it ramps up suddenly toward the back half of the movie, and the tone shifts into heavier action and thriller mode.
Yes, there are still a bunch of funny gags (including a prolonged joke about Anya trying to hold her poop in, which is far funnier than it sounds on paper), but there’s also a lot of kicking and explosions and a whole lot of complicated made-up political issues (which in true Anime OVA fashion are resolved neatly so they won’t really affect the next season). I’m sure this is exciting for a certain type of Spy x Family fan, but I spent the second half of the movie daydreaming about what the plot could’ve been if the Forgers spent the next half hour trying to make the overly complicated dessert instead. I know there are people out there who would want the dessert plotline sped up.
As a TV show, Spy x Family expertly handles these tone changes. Having 20-plus episode seasons means a nice balance of both the sillier and the more serious episodes — and because the episodes clock in at half an hour, it never feels like too much focus on one thing. But as a movie, Spy Family Code: White can’t strike that balance. Each half of the movie represents a different aspect of Spy x Family ’s appeal , and each half is quite good for what it’s supposed to be. They just don’t gel together at feature length. When the tone shifts, it locks in and doesn’t really have as much give as the show. Still, no matter what type of Spy x Family fan you are, you’ll enjoy at least half of the movie.
Spy Family Code: White is out in theaters today.
