No Tim Anderson, no problem. At least that was the case on Tuesday.
The White Sox’s offense woke up from a two-day slump, while Dylan Cease had one of his best starts with the South Siders. It was a stressful, 5-2 win that snapped a three-game losing streak, despite the White Sox’s 18 hits doubling the Blue Jays total. This season, Chicago has held the Blue Jays to two or fewer runs in four of five games.
Even without their spark plug leader at the top of the order, the White Sox offense found more success from the opening pitch.
