Cardinals 3, White Sox 0: Offense has no answers in loss

by Jordan Lazowski

A lifeless offense set the tone for the day once again for the White Sox, moving now to 0-9 when the pitching staff strikes out 14 or more hitters in the game.

Touki Toussaint got the start for the White Sox this afternoon, throwing five strong innings to keep the White Sox in the game during his spot start. In return, the White Sox managed seven hits – none of them for extra bases – striking out nine times and walking none.

Beyond that, there isn’t much to say about such a lackluster game.

With the loss, the White Sox fall to 38-53.

W: Miles Mikolas (5-5) | L: Touki Toussaint (0-2) | S: Jordan Hicks (7)

Notable Performances

Touki Toussaint: 5.0 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K

Toussaint did exactly what the Sox would have hoped for out of a spot start from him, throwing five strong innings and limiting the damage to just two runs.

Aaron Bummer: 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K

Today is all about the pitching staff, and Bummer turned in one of many strong performances from the team today.

The White Sox couldn’t win if you conceded the game to them! It’s becoming pretty obvious that the team gave up long ago, and that the players no longer wish to be here!
