After changing his Sox, Michael Kopech set to face organization that drafted him
Michael Kopech is set to make his third major-league start Friday night, but it won’t be like his last one Sunday in Detroit.
It could be more like his big-league debut as it brings the additional element of facing the Red Sox, who traded him to the White Sox in the four-player package for Chris Sale.
“Take a deep breath and make pitches,’’ Renteria said Thursday before his White Sox faced the Red Sox in the opener of a four-game series at Guaranteed Rate Field.
