CHICAGO -- These kind of starts appear to be becoming the norm for Jakob Junis.
The right-hander, much like in his previous two outings, wasn't terribly economical with his pitches, needing 100 to navigate 5 1/3 innings in the Royals' 9-3 loss to the White Sox on Friday night. However, Junis again limited the damage in his sixth start since being activated from the disabled list with back inflammation, as he allowed just two runs on five hits in a no-decision.
"Fastball command wasn't really there today, struggled with that, but thankfully I made some pitches when it counted and got some outs," Junis said.
