The White Sox will get a first look at division rival, the Royals, and at a (hopefully) good time. Kansas City just dropped two of three against the Guardians, losing 10-2 yesterday.
Chicago made several moves ahead of this series. Two pitchers, Duncan Davitt and Brandon Eisert, have been recalled. The team also added Chris Murphy to the 15-day injured list with left elbow impingement syndrome.
After celebrating his first Major League strikeout and introducing his entire family and pregnant wife (who
missed work for Wednesday’s loss), Tyler Schweitzer was sent back down to Charlotte.
Anthony Kay is on the mound tonight for the visitors. Kay’s starts haven’t been awful, but they also haven’t been great. He maintains an ERA of 4.00, with five strikeouts, four earned runs, and six walks over nine innings. Chase Meidroth, who has been an on-base machine lately, remains at the top of the lineup.
Seth Lugo will start for the Royals. Lugo has one win under his belt so far, with 10 strikeouts over 11 innings. The lineup stays consistent, with plenty of big hitters ready to go.
You can watch the game on CHSN or listen on ESPN Chicago 1000. First pitch is 6:40 p.m. CT.
