MLB The Show Players League continued growing on Thursday with two games showcased on ESPN2 in a first for the virtual tournament.
Lucas Giolito and the Chicago White Sox faced off against Blake Snell and the Tampa Bay Rays while Toronto's Bo Bichette and Minnesota's Trevor May battled in the second leg of the doubleheader. Giolito and May probably wished their games weren't highlighted.
The two American League Central teams were dealt blowout losses as Snell won 9-2, before Bichette notched an 8-1 victory of his own.
To make matters worse, Giolito was pitching with himself in the game when Snell began to tee off.
