Wednesday was the type of offensive night the Chicago White Sox have been craving. They hit four homers. They had multiple innings scoring more than one run. And, for the first time all month, they played a game that was decided by more than four runs.
Sox starter Lucas Giolito settled in after allowing two runs in the first with a stretch of retiring 12 straight.“The offense was the story tonight, not me, the offense,” Giolito said. “They just erupted tonight. It was fantastic. Pitching comfortably with that kind of support makes your job so much easier. Wish I finished stronger. It’s funny, I feel my last two wins I didn’t pitch well enough to deserve them, but baseball is weird like that.
“A little more comfortable but at the same time I wanted to make sure we kept our foot on the gas pitching wise, defensively. We did that most of the outing until the seventh inning.”The Sox have occasionally had nights like Wednesday this season. The key is building on it as they try to create some momentum heading into the All-Star break.“I’ve said this a lot with games that are heartbreakers and games we don’t play well — we’ve got to flush it and move on,” Grifol said.
“ was the midway point . So today is the first day of the second half and we’ve got some work to do . But I was really happy with the way we played the game, the energy.”
