The Chicago White Sox broke a four-game losing streak on Thursday as left-hander Garrett Crochet put together a historic performance.
Unfortunately, because the game went to extra-innings, White Sox' hurler Garrett Crochet did not factor into the decision. The lefty was electric, giving up just one run on two hits over 7.0 innings. He struck out 13 and made baseball history with the performance.He has now struck out 116 batters in 82.2 innings this season and he features some of the best pure stuff of any starter in the sport.
Crochet has been awesome despite the White Sox having the worst record in all of baseball at 18-52. Having made the switch to the rotation this year from the bullpen, Crochet is 6-5 with a 3.16 ERA. He's almost certain to be the White Sox lone representative at the All-Star Game later this summer in Arlington.
There are also have been trade rumors swirling around the 24-year-old but the White Sox reportedly don't want to trade him, despite making everyone else on the roster available. The White Sox will stay on the West Coast for a new series over the weekend against the Arizona Diamondbacks. First pitch on Friday will come at 9:40 p.m. ET as Chris Flexen pitches against Ryne Nelson .Follow Fastball on FanNation on social mediaBrady Farkas is a baseball writer for Fastball on Sports Illustrated/FanNation and the host of 'The Payoff Pitch' podcast which can be found on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
