Naylor’d: Cleveland drops Sox, 5-1

This will be an especially brief recap with polls, as we anticipate overwriting this recap with a on-the-ground report from Melissa Sage-Bollenbach, who might be thinking she’s lucky to have had her first Cactus League game rained out yesterday after today’s offensive performance.

Suffice to say, as much as we’d love Jesse Scholtens to become a solid middle relief option out of the MLB pen and/or a legit emergency starter laboring in Charlotte, if he is the clear (only) MVP of your ballgame, you did not have a good ballgame.

The offense? Well, the White Sox did get out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, courtesy of Elvis Andrus leading off with a double off of White Sox Killer Tristion McKenzie, and one out later an Andrew (3-hole) Benintendi single.
