White Sox Minor League Update: July 5

Haven’t checked the rosters to see if there are like 48 players on the ACL White Sox roster, but that must be the case if these young and relatively vulnerable players are allowed to play (and pitch!) 12 innings of baseball in a meaningless pre-draft rookie league game. Great news, though, the ACL Sox crept one game closer to .500 with a win in extras over Seattle. Jerry Burke pitched very well, as he should, as a veteran (rehabbing) MiLB starter. The rest of the pitching was solid aside from Homer Cruz, who was responsible for the first to two blown saves tonight for the Sox — although Erick Bello was W-I-L-D with four walks in two otherwise tidy innings.
