After rallying to erase a 4-0 lead with one big wave in the third, Chase Meidroth had a golden opportunity to put the White Sox in front for the first time all night when he stood at the plate with a bases loaded and worked a 3-0 count against Seth Lugo.
Lugo got back into the count with a sinker up and in for strike one. He then threw a sinker even more up and even more in, and had Meidroth not moved, it might have hit him.
But Meidroth moved. In fact, he swung for some reason, and popped...

The White Sox scored 14 runs Tuesday night, so hopefully there’s still a little gas left in the tank. A little less drama on the pitching side would be nice, too.
