It’s tough to beat Shane Bieber.
And when you spot him six runs, it’s nearly impossible.
Despite taking an early lead against the ace, the White Sox (33-22) couldn’t contain Cleveland’s underwhelming lineup, and left the bases loaded to end a 6-5 loss on Tuesday.
The White Sox had chances to steal a road win, even as they trailed 6-3 in the ninth inning with James Karinchak on the mound. They handed the Cleveland reliever his second loss of the season on Monday, and came close to tagging him with another on Tuesday.
Jake Lamb, who finished 2-for-2 with two walks, singled to start the rally, and then scored on Zack Collins’ one-run single with one out.
