White Sox 4, Tigers 3: Mize is masterful, but it’s not enough
Dennis Wierzbicki-USA TODAY Sports Casey Mize had a no-hitter through five innings, yet the Tigers lost to the White Sox 4-3 despite only giving up three hits.
This is the last series between the Tigers and White Sox this year. Coming into this game, Chicago had gone 16-5 in its past 21 games, so it was going to be an uphill battle for Detroit against a hot division rival.
Lucas Giolito is in the midst of the best season of his career. It’s hard to believe he had a 6.13 ERA and 1.477 WHIP in 2018. Think about 2018... that’s not that long ago! I’m pretty sure the Dijon mustard in my fridge expired in 2018. (It’s still good, though. Expiry dates on mustard are a total sham.)
