White Sox MiLB Report: Lucas Giolito Gets 1st Victory of 2017

Chicago White Sox second ranked prospect Lucas Giolito finally recorded his first victory of the season on Saturday for Triple-A Charlotte. Giolito helped the Knights defeat the Louisville Bats 4-2 on the road.

The 22-year-old starter posted his first quality start of the season as he pitched six innings while allowing just two earned runs. Giolito recorded four strikeouts and allowed only one walk against the Bats on Saturday. With the win, Giolito improved his record to 1-5 and lowered his ERA to 6.55.

Giolito was struggling to start the 2017 campaign and his start on Saturday was much needed for the former top prospect.
