The Chicago White Sox took on the Toronto Blue Jays this evening in the first game of their series at the Rogers Centre, but missed opportunities, shaky defense and even shakier offense saw yet another number fall into Chicago’s column of losses. The Blue Jays won the game, 6-5, putting the White Sox at 23-24 on the season.
The Starters
Lucas Giolito started on the mound for the White Sox, and the Blue Jays’ strong offense gave him some real grief on what appeared to be an off-night. In 4 2⁄3 innings, Giolito allowed six runs (including two homers), eight hits, and two walks, while striking out eight batters.
