Well, at least it was excitingly close.
For about five minutes, anyway.
Actually, it was close for quite a while early, and at one point, it even looked like the White Sox were going to jump out way ahead. On the first three pitches of the game, Leury García and Luis Robert singled off Alek Manoah (OK, Luis’ should have been an E-5 and Leury’s really could have caught as well, but that’s quibbling).
Yoán Moncada then popped out and José Abreu K’d, after which Manoah did something really smart — he walked Gavin Sheets, which loaded the bases.
