This afternoon, the wind was blowing in Chicago and the temperature sat steadily in the 60’s, but both Andrew Heaney and Reynaldo Lopez were scorching hot. This was already an underrated matchup, but both starters came out ready to game, and game they did.
Both pitchers hit the mound and almost completely kept hitters off the bases. Lopez went 6 scoreless innings with 2 hits allowed and 3 walks. Heaney went 7 with 3 hits allowed and 0 walks. It was just one of those games where virtually nothing would land for hits.
