White Sox 12, Tigers 3: Offense unloads in support of Chris Sale

The White Sox offense isn't so bad that it was going to continue averaging 2.8 runs per game.

The Tigers pitching staff isn't so good that it was going to continue limiting opponents to one earned run every 36 innings at home.

Today went a long way to correct those two outliers. The Sox scored a season-high 12 runs, which was 12 times as many runs as the Tigers had allowed over their first four dates at Comerica Park combined.

The White Sox posted their biggest inning of the season with a four-run third, then topped themselves with a seven-run fourth.
