The White Sox had a four-run, first-inning lead Sunday — with Dylan Cease, one of the best in all of baseball, on the mound — and blew it.

To which Sox Nation collectively sighed and said, “Of course they did.”

General manager Rick Hahn probably didn’t get wind of any fan discontent, thank goodness.

It was shaping up to be a fine day against the Orioles at Guaranteed Rate Field. Gavin Sheets and Jake Burger homered back-to-back for a 4-0 lead.
