In their fifth straight win, the Chicago White Sox hit four home runs to beat the New York Yankees 6-5 in Game 1 of a doubleheader Thursday at Yankee Stadium.
Sox starter Lance Lynn allowed five runs on eight hits with four strikeouts and three walks in five innings.
“But all in all, stuff is all right, physically I feel good. It’s just about making pitches and getting out of innings without giving up runs.” “The offense was able to bail me out today,” Lynn said. “I gave up a lot of runs with two outs. I have to be better with two outs than I was today. It could have been a different ballgame for me but the offense came back and the bullpen did a hell of a job at the end.“You’re going to have days like that where, for me as a starter I didn’t do my job but the offense and bullpen did their job and you can still win games. I didn’t have to be perfect.
Relivers Gregory Santos, Joe Kelly, Reynaldo López and Kendall Graveman each pitched scoreless innings. The first two batters reached in the ninth against Graveman. He got Gleyber Torres to pop out to first baseman Andrew Vaughn and Anthony Rizzo to ground into a game-ending 4-6-3 double play.
