"Yoendrys Gómez gets his fifth crack at it for the Sox since coming up from Charlotte in August. The first three outings? Not so bad. The last one, though, was a Bronx beatdown: five runs (four earned) in four innings, with Trent Grisham's grand slam as the exclamation point in a 10-2 drubbing. The Yankees scooped up Gómez as a teenager back in 2016, and now he's out here throwing seven different pitches,"
"On the other side of the diamond, Zebby Matthews takes the ball for the Twins. He's sitting at 4-4 with a 5.06 ERA and a WHIP that's flirting with 1.5 over a dozen games. Minnesota called him up in May, then he promptly hit the IL in June with a cranky right shoulder. Since coming back, it's been a coin flip every time out. Matthews offers six pitches, but primarily sticks to the four-seamer, slider, and cutter."
White Sox have won three straight and can clinch the series tonight while the Twins are 3-7 over their last ten. Yoendrys Gómez makes his fifth start since promotion; his first three outings were solid but his most recent was hit for five runs (four earned) in four innings. Gómez throws seven pitches and leans on a four-seamer, sweeper, curve and sinker; hitters are batting .230 against him. Zebby Matthews is 4-4 with a 5.06 ERA and a near-1.5 WHIP after returning from the IL with a right-shoulder issue; he mixes six pitches while favoring a four-seamer, slider and cutter. Will Venable has set a lineup seeking a fourth straight Chicago win.
