Their ace was staked to an early lead in game 1, and shuts the door with a CG 95 pitch outing. Our ace is staked to an early lead and is also shutting the door, but he will be lucky to get through 6 innings! Let’s hope the bullpen doesn’t blow it.
So the Dodgers leave Chicago and are promptly swept by the Giants, and guess who got the win with 6 innings of 2-hit shutout ball? Rather ironic that the Sox let him go primarily because he could not stay healthy - and now he seems healthy and most of the Sox are not!
