Chicago White SoxvsBoston Red Sox
CHW 2/BOS 14
Things to say
Boston beat the White Sox 14-2 at Fenway.
01
opener
Sox just put up a 14-spot at Fenway. It wasn't close after the middle innings. Total blowout.
02
key player
The heart of the order did all the damage — Boston kept turning the lineup over and Chicago had no answer.
03
hot take
Fourteen runs and it still felt like the pitching was the story. Chicago's staff got lit up early and never recovered.
04
deep cut
White Sox manager left his starter out there way too long — should've gone to the pen an inning sooner and saved him the ERA.
05
exit
Getaway day tomorrow, so we'll see if Chicago can salvage anything before they leave town.
The recap
Boston turned Fenway into a batting cage and hung a 14-2 crooked number on the White Sox. This one was over early — the Sox lineup worked the count, left the yard, and just kept the line moving through the heart of the order.
Chicago's manager was burning through the pen by the middle innings, and it never got close. Getaway day beatdown, plain and simple.
