The White Sox looked like they were going to blow open the game early, but never did in a 4-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Tommy Edman’s power bat proved to be the difference, but the White Sox (28-20) also couldn’t hit with runners on base.
The Starters
Carlos Rodón suffered the loss, but undeservingly so after six spectacular innings. He recorded his third double-digit strikeout game of the year, reaching back to hit 100 mph on his final pitch, which doubled as his 10th strikeout. Other than a Tommy Edman solo home run, the Cardinals never threatened to score against him.
