The White Sox brought their AL Central lead back to nine games over Cleveland with a 2-1 win to kick off August. The team is off tomorrow, and will host Kansas City for a three-game series beginning Tuesday.
The Starters
Cal Quantrill made his 12th start of the season today, and second against the White Sox, going six innings and allowing just three hits and a solitary unearned run, walking four and striking out six. It’s the third consecutive quality start for the 26-year-old former first-rounder, who was acquired in last season’s Mike Clevinger deal, and fourth in five tries.
