Mandatory Credit: Daniel Kucin Jr.-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-1\">The visiting Chicago White Sox aim to reverse a trend Sunday afternoon in the rubber match of their three-game series with the Toronto Blue Jays.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-2\">The Blue Jays have mostly had their way with the White Sox recently. Toronto is 13-2 against the South Siders since June 22, 2022, after a 7-1 victory on Saturday to gain a split of the first two games. The Blue Jays are 9-2 at home against Chicago since May 31, 2022.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-3\">The White Sox, however, are in a position to win the series after taking the opener 7-1 on Friday night.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-4\">Both teams should have their overworked bullpens in relatively good shape for the season finale after both starters pitched deep on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-5\">Toronto&#8217;s Jose Berrios pitched 7 2\/3 innings, allowing an unearned run and two hits to earn the win. The effort came after the Blue Jays used seven pitchers on Friday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-6\">&#8220;He was exactly what we needed,&#8221; manager John Schneider said. &#8220;That&#8217;s how you answer back after a tough game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-7\">&#8220;Knowing the game we had (Friday), I came in today having that in mind,&#8221; Berrios said. &#8220;But also, this is my day, my job and that&#8217;s my goal, trying to be long in the game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-8\">White Sox starter Aaron Civale was not so successful, but he overcame a difficult first two innings to toss a bullpen-saving seven innings in which he allowed five runs.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-9\">The White Sox used five pitchers on Friday after dropping both ends of a doubleheader &#8212; including a 10-inning game &#8212; against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-10\">Chicago has lost nine of its past 10 games.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<section id=\"section-11\">&#8220;After a tough start, where he left a couple of pitches in the heart of the plate and paid for it, he did a great job of settling down,&#8221; manager Will Venable said of Civale. &#8220;And to cover seven innings with where we are with our bullpen is huge. &#8230; Just unbelievable to be able to go seven innings on a day where maybe, at the beginning, he didn&#8217;t have his best stuff.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-12\">The White Sox had a reliever make his major league debut for the second straight game on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-13\">Jake Palisch, who was promoted from Double-A Birmingham on Friday, pitched the eighth inning Saturday, allowing two infield hits and Davis Schneider&#8217;s two-run double.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-14\">Wikelman Gonzalez allowed one run in two innings in his MLB debut on Friday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-15\">Toronto is scheduled to start right-hander Chris Bassitt (7-3, 3.75 ERA) in the finale. He is 5-2 with a 2.94 ERA in nine career starts against the White Sox.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-16\">The White Sox are slated to go with right-hander Adrian Houser (2-2, 2.15). In two career starts against the Blue Jays, he is 0-2 with a 9.58 ERA.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-17\">Bo Bichette showed the Blue Jays&#8217; attacking intentions when he homered on Civale&#8217;s first pitch of the game, a center-cut sinker, on Saturday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-18\">It was Bichette&#8217;s third homer over the his five games and his team-leading 11th of the season.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-19\">&#8220;Bo can do that, he is that talented a hitter,&#8221; Schneider said. &#8220;The leadoff spot is a tricky one, because you&#8217;re probably going to get a first-pitch fastball. You have to be on time and do your homework.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-20\">Toronto&#8217;s Addison Barger (right hip discomfort) did not play Saturday but Schneider said the outfielder could be available on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"section-21\">&#8211;Field Level Media<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadspin | White Sox out to turn tables on Blue Jays, win series<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":63199,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
