The Chicago White Sox are underperforming on all cylinders, and the Houston Astros exposed it this evening, just like they did in the 2021 postseason. The saddest part? Nothing changes.
Lucas Giolito didn’t have a smooth start. In the first inning, Gio allowed a Michael Brantley single, and Alex Bregman took a ball deep to left-center field for a two-run, opening-inning home run.
Unfortunately, the early damage didn’t stop there. An inning later, Yuli Gurriel took the ball over the around-the-league scoreboard for a quick, 3-0 Astros lead.
However, the White Sox found a way to quickly claw back from a three-run hole.
