Unfortunately, pleasurable though being on the winning side of a blowout may be, the rules say you have to start the next game all over again at 0-0. That\u2019s a bad break for the White Sox<\/a>, who had about as many hits last night as they\u2019d had in a normal week over the past four seasons.<\/p>\n

Trying to build on the pitching momentum from last night\u2019s fine performance by Davis Martin<\/a> will be Erick Fedde<\/a>, who\u2019s having a solid year so far with a 3.63 ERA (4.22 FIP) and 1.063 WHIP. Fedde was particularly strong last time out, giving up just a solo homer to the Royals in five innings.<\/p>\n

Trying to tame the Big Sox Machine will be veteran righty Luis Severino<\/a>, who is having a lousy season so far (0-2 with a 5.59 ERA\/4.50 FIP). The problems are mostly of his own making, since at age 32 the two-time All Star is apparently suffering from early onset memory loss and and can\u2019t remember where the strike zone is, walking 16 in 19 1\/3 innings.<\/p>\n

Severino will face a a Sox lineup that has Andrew Benintendi<\/a> (who had what was about his season\u2019s worth of hits last night and has hurt Severino at a .342 clip through the years) again in the leadoff spot, and Munetaka Murakami<\/a> (whose grand slam blast last night is probably still traveling) again hitting second:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Only one batter for the young A\u2019s has ever faced Fedde \u2014 but that\u2019s leadoff hitter Jeff McNeil<\/a>, who\u2019s 7-for-18 against him.<\/p>\n

First pitch is scheduled for 3:05 p.m. Central, with perfect baseball weather of 73\u00b0 and almost no wind. Usual broadcast suspects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Unfortunately, pleasurable though being on the winning side of a blowout may be, the rules say you have…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":678632,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2379],"tags":[1000,5,138,49,2561,5285,133,1332,1327,4,73,396,2562],"class_list":{"0":"post-678631","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-chicago-white-sox","8":"tag-andrew-benintendi","9":"tag-baseball","10":"tag-chicago","11":"tag-chicago-white-sox","12":"tag-chicagowhitesox","13":"tag-davis-martin","14":"tag-erick-fedde","15":"tag-jeff-mcneil","16":"tag-luis-severino","17":"tag-mlb","18":"tag-munetaka-murakami","19":"tag-white-sox","20":"tag-whitesox"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/116427731763979667","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/678631","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=678631"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/678631\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/678632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=678631"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=678631"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=678631"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
