Sox pitching is prickly in Cactus League opener

The White Sox hope their spring training opener’s pitching performances don’t appear too often this season.

The team gave up 14 hits and fell to the Dodgers, 13-5.

Dylan Covey started for the Sox, going two innings and giving up one run thanks to Justin Turner’s solo shot in the first inning. It might have been the best White Sox pitching performance of the day.

Tim Anderson launched a three-run home run in the top of the third to give the Sox a two-run lead. Ryan Cordell, who was claimed in the Anthony Swarzak deal last July and had singled in his first White Sox at-bat, scored on the play.
