Los Angeles DodgersvsChicago White Sox
LAD 2/CHW 8
Things to say
White Sox beat the Dodgers 8-2 at Rate Field.
01
opener
Sox jumped on LA early and never looked back. Eight-two at Rate, and honestly it wasn't even that close.
02
key player
Whoever was throwing for Chicago had the Dodgers' heart of the order completely off balance — kept getting them to chase out of the zone all night.
03
hot take
I don't care about the record, the Dodgers' rotation is held together with duct tape right now.
04
deep cut
Sox are 37-31 — they've quietly been a .540 team for like six weeks. Nobody's talking about it.
05
exit
Anyway, curious what they do tomorrow — getaway day, you usually see the bullpen earlier than you'd like.
The recap
White Sox absolutely jumped on the Dodgers at Rate Field, 8-2, and it wasn't really close after the middle innings. LA's starter never got into his stuff and the manager went to the pen too early, which is when Chicago's heart of the order did the damage.
Tough look for a 44-26 club walking into a sub-.500 park and getting punched in the mouth. White Sox keep clawing toward respectability at 37-31.
