It was good until, well, it wasn’t.
Tonight’s game started out looking like things were headed in the right direction. Reynaldo López was on the mound coming off of two good outings, facing a very beatable starting pitcher (who proved to be very beatable indeed), and the bats got going early, but in the end, it was the Detroit Tigers offense that tipped the scales for good, as they stormed past the Chicago White Sox, 9-5.
However, the night was not without its fair share of positive takeaways for Chicago. After both pitchers kept the game scoreless heading into the third, the Sox seized some opportunities against Artie Lewicki their second time through the lineup.
