![]() ![]() Overall, the offense fared much better in this series, scoring a total of 19 runs. It looked like the Rays were also going to sweep the Sox, but somehow the Pale Hose pulled off a Miracle on 35th Street in the final game, salvaging it after going down to their last strike, 12-9. The pitching didn’t give them a chance, either, surrendering 20 runs throughout the series. Andrew Benintendi was the hottest hitter, going 4-for-10, but he didn’t have a single RBI, as the Sox only had two for the entire series courtesy of an Andrew Vaughn double in the top of the third during the series opener. Chicago only scored two runs on 11 hits during the three-game stretch. ![]() The South Siders had very few moments to highlight, with an utterly-dead offense and horrendous starting and pen pitching that led to a brisk sweep by the third-place Jays.

Remember when Pedro told us, “And that’s what I meant before when I said you can’t win it in the spring, but you can certainly lose it in the spring?” The Sox sure are doing their best to lose it in the spring. Oh boy, it was one heck of a week for the Pale Hose. Even if you don’t want to remember what happened, sorry, we will tell you anyway. Welcome to the SSS Summary - a little review of what happened this past week in Chicago White Sox baseball, including on-the-field play, the front office jibber-jabber, and everything in-between. ![]()
