two-out grounder<\/a> in the eighth inning for an error.<\/p>\n\u201cI\u2019m not making any excuses. I should have made the play,\u201d Betts said.<\/p>\n
Jacob Gonzalez bounced to second for the final out in the eighth, but Peters hit a drive to right on a 96.6 mph fastball from Yamamoto. It was Peters\u2019 third homer of the season.<\/p>\n
Yamamoto departed after Edgar Quero flied to center for the first out in the ninth. He was saluted with a standing ovation from the sellout crowd of 37,832 as he made his way off the field.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the best outings we\u2019ve seen from an opponent this year,\u201d White Sox manager Will Venable said. \u201cThe stuff was outstanding. Lived on the edges. We didn\u2019t have a ton to hit.\u201d <\/p>\n
Yamamoto struck out seven. He threw a season-high 109 pitches, 74 for strikes.<\/p>\n
Before the ninth inning, Chase Meidroth had the best chance for a hit for the White Sox. He had a liner hook just foul before he struck out swinging for the final out of the fifth.<\/p>\n
There was a short delay before the bottom of the sixth while the grounds crew worked on the area around the pitching rubber on the mound. But Yamamoto had no issues when the game resumed, striking out Gonzalez on a full-count cutter before Peters bounced to first and Quero fouled out to left.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was in the zone. He kept it out of the middle. I mean, kept them off balance,\u201d Betts said. \u201cI mean that\u2019s just Yoshi being Yoshi, you know. I\u2019m glad he\u2019s on our team.\u201d<\/p>\n
