White Sox racking up baserunning outs without baserunners

When Mike Olt was gunned down by Torii Hunter trying to stretch a single into a double during Friday's game, I went to Baseball-Reference.com to confirm that the White Sox had exceeded their baserunning outs from last season.

Turned out I missed it by one. Trayce Thompson was the one to put the Sox over the top by getting thrown out at second on his two-run single for the Sox' 63rd baserunning out of the season. I must have been too relieved that the second run crossed the plate before Thompson was tagged out to notice.
