TORONTO — Blue Jays starter Alek Manoah admitted he was thinking about a complete game Thursday as the White Sox were trying to make a comeback attempt in the eighth inning.
It provided a learning opportunity for the young right-hander, who provided another strong performance in Toronto's 8-3 win over Chicago.
"Baseball is great, man. It teaches you lessons all the time," Manoah said. "That's a good lesson for me, to not worry about pitch count or look ahead in the game. Just stay in myself, continue to attack and what's meant to happen will happen.
