Right after the White Sox tied the game in the bottom of the seventh inning, the defense gave it back in the eighth. Tim Anderson tried to turn a double play but couldn’t grip the ball out of his glove, then flipped it past Jose Rondon, who couldn’t see it with Joe Mauer bearing down on him. That put runners at first and third for Max Kepler, who hit a ground ball right at Yolmer Sanchez. Mauer broke for home, and Sanchez hesitated before throwing the ball to first, even though he clearly had a play at the plate.
