Six Pack of Stats: White Sox 7, Royals 4
The Chicago White Sox returned to Kauffman Stadium today for their fifth consecutive game against the Kansas City Royals, and it was great to see the team’s offense show up to play. The South Siders won with a final score of 7-4, bringing them back to .500 on the season.
The Starters
Vince Velasquez started on the mound for the White Sox and he stayed there for a pretty average five innings. Allowing Kansas City to score all four of their runs, Velasquez only managed to strike out three Royals batters and left the game with his ERA at pretty miserable 5.79. There was nothing particularly unusual about his pitch velocity — overall, his throws just didn’t quite hit the mark.
