CHICAGO -- A day after ordering a two-strike intentional walk that backfired, Chicago White Sox manager Tony La Russa said he'd do it all over again.
In the sixth inning of Thursday's 11-9 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, La Russa walked right-handed hitting speedster Trea Turner with a 1-2 count. Left-handed hitting Max Muncy followed with a three-run homer off lefty Bennett Sousa that opened the Los Angeles lead to 10-5.
Muncy had five RBI in his return after missing 11 games with left elbow inflammation.
