Chicago White Sox pitchers Touki Toussaint, Tanner Banks and Gregory Santos held the Cleveland Guardians to 6 hits in a 3-0 victory. The Sox snapped a 6-game losing streak.
There are openings in the Chicago White Sox rotation after trading Lucas Giolito and Lance Lynn.
Friday marked Toussaint’s fourth start — and eighth appearance — since the Sox claimed the right-hander off waivers June 20. He has a 3.34 ERA in that span. “That was awesome of him tonight,” third baseman Jake Burger said of Toussaint. “He really had all his pitches working. He was fun to play behind. He’s got that energy and tenacity on the bump to have fun on the infield playing behind him. ]“He’s had a few innings where he’s kind of lost it a little bit and then rebounded,” Grifol said. “He’s facing good teams, good lineups. Other than a couple of hiccups in a few innings here and there, he’s been really consistent.
