Lack of offense, sloppy defense bite White Sox

The White Sox lost with ease and E's on Sunday to the Orioles.

Of more concern to manager Robin Ventura, though, was the lack of "O" against the O's during a 9-1 loss at U.S. Cellular Field.

After his team managed just one run and five hits while committing four errors — including two on the same play in the first inning by third baseman Conor Gillaspie — Ventura pointed to the lack of run production, not defense, as the biggest culprit.

The Sox's second-longest winning streak of the season ended at four with the conclusion of a series the team won 2-1 despite scoring five runs and getting 23 hits.
