Bottom line: WhiteSox offense continues to struggle.
In Friday night's 3-1 loss to the Red Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field, Tim Anderson made an error in the third inning while playing second base for the first time in his career.
In the fourth, shortstop Elvis Andrus booted a ground ball for an error and Red Sox star Rafael Devers followed with a 2-run homer. "Defense today wasn't good," manager Pedro Grifol said."But at the end of the day, we've got to hit. We've got to step on home plate. We've got to string base hits together, base hits and walks together, and we've got to hit homers with men on base. That's it. The bottom line."The White Sox outhit the Red Sox 8-4 and Giolito and relievers Gregory Santos, Reynaldo Lopez and Keynan Middleton combined to strike out 17 Boston hitters.
"I feel like I'm ramping up a little bit now as we get into the hotter temperatures," Giolito said."I've always preferred throwing in 70 -plus. Looking forward to continue to build off today. I'd like to go out with that kind of stuff consistently, because if I do, and I'm able to make those quick adjustments when I need to, then I feel very confident I'll keep pitching well.""He had a great slider today," the White Sox's manager said.
