White Sox 7, Indians 3: Bullpen, defensive woes cost Indians

CHICAGO: The Indians had overcome the 32-degree weather, the whipping wind, three errors and two wild pitches, leaving Cody Anderson in position to beat White Sox ace Chris Sale.

“I think it says a lot about Cody and his ability to manage the game and manage the weather,” Indians manager Terry Francona said. “All the things that are thrown at you and we get a 3-2 lead when he left the game.”

Bryan Shaw and the bullpen couldn’t hold it, though, leaving the Indians cold and frustrated.

Avisail Garcia hit a three-run home run in the decisive seventh inning, Sale remained unbeaten and Chicago rallied past the Indians 7-3 on a frigid Saturday.
