Series preview: Cleveland vs. White Sox
Photo by Ron Vesely/Getty ImagesThese two teams played a four-game set just last week and it was a mix of beauty of horror. Shane Bieber and Lucas Giolito provided one of the best pitching matchups we’ve seen in a while, but Carlos Rodón finally did the inevitable and threw a no-hitter against the 2021 Cleveland baseball team.
Chicago will enter this series having split their four-game series with the Red Sox over the weekend. They suffered a blowout in Monday morning’s game, with Lucas Giolito being knocked out in the second inning. The game followed a double-header, and with their bullpen already taxed, the White Sox turned to position players as pitchers in the seventh inning.
