was extremely sharp with his pitches against the White Sox and finished with seven strikeouts and one walk after 6.0 innings of work. Cookie threw 71 percent of his pitches for strikes, with 10 of those pitches being swings and misses.
However, filling up the zone has its disadvantages. Carrasco gave up three runs which all came via the long ball.Still, giving up a couple of home runs is better than allowing the opponent to rack up the pitch count by stringing hits together.Cleveland finds itself in first place in the division thanks to their offense and bullpen. However, we can’t forget how great of an elite defensive team the Guardians are too.
Cleveland’s bullpen uncharacteristically gave up a three-run lead to the White Sox as Chicago came back to tie the game at six in the bottom of the seventh. The score would remain tied heading into the bottom of the ninth. Bo Naylor pinch hit for Hedges in the bottom of the ninth and ended up getting the walk-off sacrifice fly, which allowed Gimenez to score the winning run from third.Credit to Bo for staying patient and calm at the plate. He’s struggled at times on offense this season, but has been seeing the ball a lot better as of late. I game-winning at-bat such as this one can do a ton for his confidence moving forward.
