How White Sox clubhouse is coping as worst team in MLB history - ESPN
CHICAGO — Last week, hours after the Chicago White Sox's latest attempt to win a baseball game fell apart in typically absurd fashion, Davis Martin could only chuckle. Every White Sox player has found a coping mechanism to endure the 2024 season, and Martin's is laughter.
