Go figure, Dylan Cease may have pitched the White Sox to a 5-3 win over San Francisco on Saturday, but in the process he really blew his stellar June pace.
You know, the pace that led to one earned run and a 0.33 ERA, and was rewarded on Saturday with AL Pitcher of the Month honors?
Yes, for the first time in Cease’s career, he has won an MLB honor, and short of end-of-season awards, this is a big one.
The 26-year-old won two of his three decisions in June, with just that one ER in 27 1⁄3 innings.
