The Yankees (60-46) continue their four-game series at Rate Field tonight looking to build on last night’s come from behind 9-5 win over the White Sox (55-50). New York remains 2.5 games behind the Rays in the AL East and comfortably atop the Wild Card standings. Thanks to the Guardians’ loss last night, the Sox remain two games up in the AL Central.
Last night, the Sox jumped Max Fried early scoring three times in the first inning, highlighted by RBI hits from Colson Montgomery and Braden Montgomery. New York rallied in the fourth. The Yankees plated four runs. Ben Rice drove in a run with a groundout before Jazz Chisholm Jr. delivered the biggest hit of the inning, a two-run double to tie the game. Spencer Jones closed the scoring that inning with an RBI groundout. Chicago tied it in the fifth before the Yankees blew it open with a run in the seventh and four more in the eighth. Backup catcher Alí Sánchez delivered the knockout blow with a three-run homer to left in that decisive eighth inning.
Chicago managed 10 hits, matching New York’s total, but defensive miscues proved costly. The White Sox committed three errors which extended rallies and certainly did not help Chicago’s comeback efforts.
Tonight, the Yankees are expected to hand the ball to veteran ace Gerrit Cole (3-5, 3.92 ERA). Cole’s last outing was against the Pirates last Wednesday. He threw a season-best seven innings allowing four hits and three runs while striking out 11. Two of the four Bucs’ hits were home runs. Cole has now served up 11 home runs over his last 9 starts. Chicago is expected to counter with left-hander Anthony Kay (7-4, 4.21 ERA), who has been consistently good for much of the season. In July, Kay has given up seven runs in 18.1 innings of work. The issue has been stamina for the southpaw as Kay has not pitched more than 5.1 innings in any of his last 5 starts and has not reached the fifth in three of those five.
