The Cubs traveled across town to take on the White Sox at Rate Field Friday night. Things went badly almost immediately for the North Siders, and they suffered a lopsided defeat.
Shu014dta Imanaga got off to a rough start with a solo home run by leadoff hitter Chase Meidroth, followed by a two-run single by Lenyn Sosa that gave the Sox a 3-0 advantage in the 1st inning. A Colson Montgomery homer and an RBI knock by Andrew Benintendi increased the margin for the home team to 5-0 in the 2nd.
