Lenyn Sosa stamps his 10th home run while the White Sox Fall to the Phillies, 6-3

The White Sox (39-69) avoided the shutout, but still dropped the second game of the series on the Phillies (61-46) After a loss of 6-3. Philadelphia woke the good boys for eight innings, and the attack did not essentially exist until the bottom of the ninth inning, but by that time it was too late.

What I said before in the game wire about the era of Jonathan Cannon Trending, you can forget it, because tonight it made sure that it was going again. He worked through the first well, which is contrary to how his start can usually go, and he cut Bryce Harper before everything turned into a mess.

However, it quickly went downhill, like the Phillies Goten on six points on seven hits through four innings: two in the second and another four in the third. The second inning started with Cannon that Nick Castellanos ran to lead the collection – his second of the game – and was immediately succeeded by a Brandon Marsh -Double to put runners on the second and third. Both counties scored in the frame were on back-to-back sacrifice of Max Kepler and Otto Kemp, and Michael A. Taylor came close to throwing swamps at home, but the ball took a strange hop of the grass from the grass on something else like an excellent throw.

The third inning was unfortunately worse, when Trea Turner resigned the inning with a double in the left-mid-gorge to put itself in a score position. He did not have to be in the end, because Kyle Schwarber flashed his strength with a two-run shot that went almost 115 km / h from the bat and landed on the hall near the Miller Lite landing, 441 feet. Only a few batters later did the Phillies again did the same, when JT Realmuto hit the base and Brandon Marsh smoked a two-run bomb to increase the shortage of the White Sox to six.

On the other side of the ball, the bats of the south side were almost sleeping and only gathered two beats through seven innings against Jesús Lazardo, who needed a comeback match and got exactly that. Lenyn Sosa and Edgar Quero both picked up two hits in the competition, but two-thirds of the line-up could not get a hit.

Chicago endangered in the bottom of the first after Chase Meidroth reached an error and Quero tore a single to set two with one out. Marsh made an excellent game on a miguel Vargas flight ball for the second zero, probably robbing the SOX of a few runs.

A walk from Luis Robert Jr. Helped the inning to extend a little and load the bases for the hot-hitting leffty, Colson Montgomery. He was clearly frustrated after he had just missed the Sweet Spot and had flown to the middle, and it probably hurt much more after the six points scored in the next two innings.

In another universe, Colson hits the Grand Slam, but unfortunately the South Siders went the next three innings three-up-three, until SOSA tore his first hit of the day to lead the bottom of the fifth. Kyle Teel reached a mistake just a few batters later, but nothing came of it and they thwarted again. They immediately fell back into the rhythm and went down to put both the sixth and the seventh to place Lazardo in very nice positioning to win the victory for Philly.

With the lack of offense since the third inning, the game became really boring and the White Sox kept the Phillies, but they did not do anything for themselves to repair it. Tyler Gilbert treated the seventh fine, even with a Schwarber -Double and a walk for a few unwanted baseunners, but he stepped out and finished his inning with a strikeout.

Dan Altavilla managed the last two innings for the Chicago pitching staff, and he went down the Phillies to be in the eighth for the second time, and gave only one hit on it and eliminated one. In general a solid working day, but extremely anti-climactic without the run support.

Philadelphia finally went to the bullpen in the eighth inning, and righthander Jordan Romano worked through the White Sox without a problem because they went down for what felt the millionth time of the day. The good ones showed up extremely late to the party and decided to hit the ball on the bottom of the ninth. Quero distracted the inning with his second hit of the night, and Robert maintained him with a single down the right field line to put runners on first and third with one out. In the first run of the game, Colson Montgomery rode a slow role to first base, and Lenyn Sosa benefited from the situation by crushing his 10th Homer of the season in the Bullpen Left to make 6-3, Philly.

Things felt like they started to be interesting when Mike Tauchman came in to squeeze the hit, and the bullen of the Phillies began to stir with two out. Tauchman did get a good part of the ball and drove a 106.5 MPH Line Drive to the middle, but unfortunately it was exactly at Marsh and Philadelphia and even the series at one.

Even with the ninth inning meeting, the South Siders could not convert themselves with runners and went 1-out-6 with runners in score position (Lenyn’s Home Run) and left five runners on the base. The Phillies even helped a bit with two lazy mistakes, but 60% of Chicago’s hits came in the last inning, which will of course make it considerably more difficult to win games.

They were probably due to a cold streak, so the fact that they showed some life at the end, even while they are six down, is definitely a step higher than last year or even earlier this season. The White Sox will try to win the series tomorrow with Game Three starting at 1:10 pm CT on the south side.
