For the third game in a row, a White Sox starting pitcher who had an excellent first outing this year had a miserable second one. This time Davis Martin took an even bigger fall from grace, giving up seven earned runs on nine hits, including homers by Kerry Carpenter (his third in two days) and Spencer Torkelson.
Were the good first outings mirages caused by facing the Angels? Better hope not.
The game started out in promising fashion, as a Luis Robert Jr. walk, Andrew Benintendi single and Andrew Vaughn double off Reece Olson in the first provided a run and men on second and third with one out.
