Bullet-point recap:
*The White Sox blasted four homers by guys you want hitting the homers: Jake Burger, Luis Robert Jr., Yoán Moncada and Eloy Jiménez. Moncada's was the shocker, as he hadn't homered since April 2.
*Lance Lynn couldn'thold leads of 2-0 or 4-2 due to his ongoing problems retiring left-handed hitters. After Burger's two-run shot off Luis Severino in the top of the second, Lynn gave up three consecutive two-out hits to even the score at 2. After Robert and Moncada hit solo shots in the top of the third, the Yankees tied it up with a two-runi shot by Willie Calhoun in the bottom of the fourth.
*The Yankees took their first lead in the bottom of the fifth on a two-out single by Oswaldo Cabrera,. who scored Jake Bauers, who reached on a one-out double.
*The White Sox were able to strike against New York's vaunted bullpen, and over the course of three Michael King pitches. Robert roped a sweeper that hung over the middle of the plate down the left-field line for a double, and when Jiménez got an elevated first-pitch sinker, he put that strong, quick swing on it and launched it out to right center to give the Sox a 6-5 lead.
*The White Sox bullpen held the line. Gregory Santos, Joe Kelly and Reynaldo López all pitched perfect innings to get the ball to Kendall Graveman, whose inning was far from clean. He walked Josh Donaldson, then watched Romy González boot what should've been the first out to put the first two aboard.
*Graveman came back to get Gleyber Torres to pop out, and Anthony Rizzo to ground a 2-0 changeupi into a 4-6-3 double play to end the game.
*Said double play was challenged by the Yankees, and it looked like Tim Anderson might've lost contact with second base before González's throw arrived, but the call stood.
*Anderson dodged a bullet, because he also grounded into a drawn-in infield with one out and runner on third after González walked(!), then stole second and third on old friend Jimmy Cordero in the sixth inning.
*Andrew Benintendi went 0-for-5 behind him, so Robert's 3-for-5 day acted more like a catalyst from teh third spot.
*Lynn got the no-decision, but his ERA rose to 6.72 after giviong up five runs on eight hits and three walks over five innings. Santos picked up the win instead.
*Burger added a double to his two-run shot, so he proved Pnoles' point rather well. He also contributed to a fun score bug:
*Tanner Banks is the 26th man for the doubleheader.
