White Sox Game Recaps

Giants 12, White Sox 3: Hanser Alberto pitched

White Sox lose

Luis Robert Jr. robbed a homer, then hit a solo shot, so he finished +2 in that department.

As a whole, the Sox finished -6.

Michael Kopech gave up five, including four in the fifth inning that effectively buried the White Sox. The Sox did pull the game within a grand slam, but then José Ruiz gave up two homers in the ninth, including a grand slam, to necessitate a mound appearance for Hanser Alberto.

Bullet points:

*The Giants had more homers (seven) than the White Sox had hits (five).

*Andrew Vaughn apparently said something to Anthony DeSclafani after hitting a weak comebacker on a 3-0 slider, because DeSclafani had words for him afterward.

*Jake Diekman and Jimmy Lambert figured out how to get through the sixth, seventh and eighth innings unscored upon.

*White Sox pitchers walked eight against just nine strikeouts.

*The game wrapped up in two hours and 36 minutes, so at least it was short.
