For Royals ace Danny Duffy, it would be his first victory against the White Sox this season. Though Duffy is 0-3 with a 9.56 ERA against them in 2017, he is 6-5 with a 4.28 ERA all time vs. the White Sox. Full Game Coverage Kansas City, which dropped a 7-6 decision in the series opener on Friday, is 4 1/2 games back of Minnesota for the second American League Wild Card spot. Dylan Covey, making his 11th start of the season for the White Sox, is looking for his first Major League win, not to mention his first quality start and first 100-pitch outing. He is 0-6 with an 8.23 ERA, .321 opponents' average and 1.81 WHIP over 10 starts. Covey, a Rule 5 Draft pick from the A's, has a 7.94 ERA in six relief appearances. "He's another young man who's got definitely some sink to his repertoire. We're hoping he can command the zone a lot more," manager Rick Renteria said. "We need more strikes out of him. We still have one or two more starts left for him and we'd like to see where that's at before we make any kind of determination. "Obviously he's got a very good arm and any time you spend the time some of these guys have at the Major League level, you're gaining something. You're gaining some knowledge. You're gaining some confidence. You're gaining an understanding of what's going on here and some of the things you're going to have to improve upon." Three things to know about this game • Duffy started on Sunday against the Indians at Progressive Field in his first outing back from the disabled list (low-grade pronator strain). He was strong, going five innings while giving up just one hit and striking out eight. Duffy threw 62 pitches in that first outing back and his workload likely will increase to the 80-85 pitch range on Saturday. • Tim Anderson takes a career-high 13-game hitting streak into Saturday's contest. It's also the longest current streak in the Majors. • Jose Abreu needs two RBIs for 100. He would join Albert Pujols and Joe DiMaggio as the only players to begin their careers with four straight seasons of at least 25 home runs and 100 RBIs. White Sox close out Royals with 9-2-4-6 DP Garcia's throw gets Merrifield at plate; Cain out at second By Scott Merkin / MLB.com | @scottmerkin | September 22, 2017 CHICAGO -- Whit Merrifield froze. Lorenzo Cain hesitated and Avisail Garcia fell down in right field. Those three components were just part of a crazy 9-2-4-6 game-ending double play for the White Sox in a 7-6 win over the Royals on Friday night at Guaranteed Rate Field. "They are all unique," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said of the finish. "That's the cliche: That's the beauty of baseball. You never know what you're going to see on a given day." With the fleet-footed Merrifield on second and one out, Cain lined a single to right off closer Juan Minaya. Garcia charged the ball and slipped a little after gloving it, but he righted himself in time to throw a one-hop strike to catcher Omar Narvaez. Narvaez had to come up the first-base side a bit to grab the throw, but he appeared to come back and apply the tag just before Merrifield hit the back of the plate. Cain, meanwhile, hesitated and broke for second. But the throw from Narvaez to second baseman Yoan Moncada covering first to shortstop Tim Anderson nailed Cain at second for the final out. Replay confirmed both out calls. "I could feel him [tag] me on my shoulder," Merrifield said. "I couldn't tell from second base [if the ball went through], you can't really tell the angle, so I froze for a minute to see it get through. Once it got through, I hauled it home. They made a good play. That's how it ended. "Once [third-base coach Mike Jirschele] saw [Garcia] slip, he was waving me the whole way. He made a good play. If he slipped and got up, and made that throw, tip your hat to him. That's a good play." According to Statcast™, Garcia's throw home at 97.7 mph was his second-hardest tracked throw and hardest tracked assist this year. Garcia nailed Alex Gordon at the plate to end the sixth inning on Merrifield's single to right, but the ninth- inning play had a little more drama. "Just stand up and throw because when you think about it, that's when you throw the ball somewhere else," Garcia said. "So, you just got to do it. You don't have to think about it. I just tried to throw the ball as quick as I can because he's a fast runner. So, that's what I did." "The kid has a strong arm out there," Cain said. "He made a strong throw." Cain took the blame for the game ending on his slide at second. He hesitated around first when the throw went home, and said he has to clean that up and keep running in the situation. Anderson completed the festivities with a great catch and tag on Moncada's slightly rushed throw. "Definitely strange," Anderson said of the ending. "Just catch him and tag him." "A little bit of excitement," Garcia said. "But thank God we had the two outs and we won the game. That's most important." Moncada's go-ahead HR sends Sox past KC By Jeffrey Flanagan and Scott Merkin / MLB.com | September 22, 2017 CHICAGO -- Rookies Yoan Moncada and Matt Davidson hit home runs and the White Sox scored five unanswered runs for a 7-6 win over the Royals on Friday night, but it was the way the game ended at Guaranteed Rate Field that will have everyone talking. It ended in dramatic fashion on a double play when Whit Merrifield was thrown out at home trying to score from second base on a single to right field by Lorenzo Cain, who was thrown out trying to advance to second. The Royals challenged the out call at home and both calls wound up being reviewed and confirmed. Right fielder Avisail Garcia actually slipped after grabbing Cain's liner on a couple hops. But Merrifield had to hold at second to make sure the liner got through the infield. Third-base coach Mike Jirschele sent Merrifield after he saw the slip. "I couldn't tell from second base, you can't really tell the angle, so I froze for a minute to see it get through," Merrifield said. "Once it got through, I hauled it home. They made a good play. That's how it ended." The loss dealt another severe blow to the Royals, who fell 4 1/2 games behind the Twins for the second American League Wild Card spot with nine games left. "Obviously, when he slipped, we took a little gasp," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said. "But we were talking about his body control to be able to maintain himself enough to get up and make the throw that he did. Unbelievable." According to Statcast™, Garcia's throw home was measured at 97.7 mph. Said Royals manager Ned Yost, "My attention was on the ball hit to Garcia and when he slipped, I'm thinking, 'This game is tied.' Then, my mind is racing to all about the pitching matchups.

  • Kyle Schwarber Projects His Own Cubs Future As Great Baseball Minds Confirm His Self-Confidence
    Kyle Schwarber projects his own Cubs future as great baseball minds confirm his self-confidence By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Monday, August 3, 2015 If Kyle Schwarber can’t be even more successful than he already has been in his sensational break-in month as a Cub, something’s seriously wrong. The stocky catcher-outfielder-natural hitter drips motivation and student of baseball from every pore, and wizened baseball men can spot those qualities at 40 paces or closer. “I’ve seen a guy make adjustments pitch to pitch,” Cubs Hall of Famer Billy Williams said of Schwarber. “He’s just a baseball player knowing what he can do to be successful. He has work to do (to improve) behind the plate. I sat in a meeting the other day Kyle Schwarber with the catching coach, and (Schwarber) talked like a veteran booked an express getting out the hitters. He’s an individual who wants to learn. ticket to Wrigley Field after the Those who have an ear and open mind to learn do well in the equivalent of one game.” minor-league sea- Cincinnati Reds third-base coach Jim Riggleman, the last man to manage five full seasons for the Cubs, senses an elite hitter after Schwarber fast-tracked through the minor leagues since his June 2014 selection as the Cubs’ No. 1 pick. “The really impact guys get there quickly,” he said. “Go back through the history of the game. The greatest hitters didn’t get to big leagues at 25, 26. For most part, the great ones were there early, like (Mickey) Mantle, (Hank) Aaron, (Ted) Williams, (Albert) Pu- jols.

  • Sox's Abreu on Pace for Chicago's
    Sox’s Abreu on pace for Chicago’s greatest rookie power season By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, May 2nd, 2014 Like a runner barreling way ahead of the pack and breaking the tape, Jose Abreu knocked down all the rookie run production records for the start of the season with ease. April still had the better part of a week to go when the White Sox’ stellar slug- ger swept aside the first-year home-run and RBI major-league records for April set in 2001 by Albert Pujols, who coun- seled Abreu in spring training. He went into May Day with an MLB-leading 10 homers and 32 RBIs. He was drenched in history in other ways. According to the Elias Sports Bu- reau, Abreu was tied with Joe DiMaggio (1936), Ted Willliams (1939) and Pujols for the third-highest RBI total for a player in his first 29 career games. That trailed only Mandy Brooks (1925) and Jose Abreu is on a pace to easily reach Ron Kittle's Jim Greengrass (1952-53). Abreu also all-time Chicago rookie power numbers, achieved in tied Smead Jolley (July 1930) for the 1983. Photo Credit: “Ron Vesely© 2013 Chicago Sox rookie monthly record while tying White Sox.” for the third-highest monthly total in franchise history. Abreu’s homer total tied Zeke Bonura for the Sox record for a player’s first 29 games, and was the most in franchise history for a rookie in any month. Only Paul Konerko had more homers (11) in April than any other player in Sox annals.

  • May 11, 2011 Tribune Pujols Takes Center Stage In
    May 11, 2011 Tribune Pujols takes center stage in Cardinals' 6-4 victory Speculation abounds about future home as slugger goes 4-for-5 against Cubs By: Paul Sullivan On the first pleasant night for baseball at Wrigley Field, everyone was feeling a little giddy. The locals booed one former Cub lustily, while one current Cub was greeted with mock cheers when he managed to catch a routine fly. But the biggest feel-good moment of the night occurred behind the batting cage before before the Cardinals' 6-4 victory when slugger Albert Pujols wrapped his big arms around Cubs general manager Jim Hendry in a photogenic bear hug. Was Pujols, who went 4-for-5 on the night, starting the negotiating process, or just saying hello to an old friend? Six months remain before Pujols can become a free-agent, but "the hug" was interpreted by some as a sign the Cubs will be courting the star in November. Hendry took pains to point out he and Pujols were just exchanging pleasantries, not dollar figures. Tampering rules prohibit the Cubs from talking about players on other teams. But hugging the opposition? "Well, he hugged me first," Hendry said with a laugh. "He's a lot bigger and stronger than me." Peppered with questions about "the hug," Hendry pointed out he hugged former Cub Ryan Theriot — the object of fans' derision — twice before the game. "I can't win," Hendry said. "I like Albert. We've always gotten along. He's a great, great player. I admire the heck out of him.
