The last time he faced the Chicago White Sox, Hunter Gaddis surrendered seven earned runs, including five home runs, over four innings of a spot start in September a season ago.
He was able to achieve a measure of revenge Monday night, limiting the White Sox to two hits and one walk over six scoreless innings to lead the Cleveland Guardians to a 3-0 victory.
Gaddis simply had the White Sox’s number, giving up nothing but weak contact. The hardest contact he allowed all night was a 99.6 mph lineout by Tim Anderson in the first inning.
