The White Sox look to bounce back from a pair of losses as they play the third of four games against the Royals Wednesday in Kansas City.<\/p>\n

The Royals, aided by a few defensive miscues by the White Sox, scored two runs in the ninth inning on Tuesday night to secure a 4-3 comeback win. That marked their second win of the series and followed Monday’s 3-0 victory.<\/p>\n

Wednesday’s pitching matchup features Jonathan Cannon, a second-year right hander with a 4.26 ERA for the White Sox, versus 13-year MLB veteran Michael Wacha for the Royals.<\/p>\n

Here’s more information on Wednesday’s game.<\/p>\n
