Lucas Giolito looks in playoff form with 6 shutout innings in the Chicago White Sox’s 5-2 win vs. the Cleveland Indians

The Chicago White Sox starter had just allowed a walk, giving the Cleveland Indians runners on first and second with two outs.

“I wanted to make sure when Ethan came out there that it wasn’t just a stall to get me out of there,” Giolito said. “But he assured me that was my guy.”

Giolito locked back in after the brief chat and got Owen Miller to line out to second baseman Leury García to end the inning. Giolito slapped his glove as he walked off the mound after getting out of the jam.

Giolito looked playoff-ready Sunday, allowing five hits and one walk and striking out six in six shutout innings in a 5-2 victory in front of 21,957.
