Lucas Giolito looked strong during his first three innings on Tuesday. Then the wheels fell off for the Chicago White Sox seventh ranked prospect. Giolito would give up home runs in the next three innings, accounting for all four of the Minnesota Twins runs. Meanwhile, the offense was only able to muster one run against Minnesota pitching en route to a 4-1 loss at Guaranteed Rate Field.
It definitely wasn’t the debut Giolito was hoping for. With much hype surrounding his debut with the White Sox, the 23-year-old looked sharp at times, but just gave up too many home runs.
