His changeup was good tonight thankfully. His slider was so bad that Benetti mistook it for a changeup a few times. Lopez owes Garcia a steak dinner.

Yeah, no doubt on both of those points. The change was baffling lefties on a few occasions. Namely Gordon to end the 5th. Not sure if anyone else caught him shaking his head after whiffing at the 2nd pitching as if to say "yeah, that was nasty". lol

His slider just kinda... spun... and didn't do anything. Command with his fastball was inconsistent.

It is so White Sox to try to force a pitcher to go 6 innings even when it’s makes the game close.

I mean, he had 88 pitches after the 5th and was going to see 5-6-7. I understand that. It's more so just having the bullpen sitting around as spectators until the damn thing had already begun unraveling.

Easily the worst managing decision(s) of Ricky's time here. Reynaldo had backed his way into an acceptable 5 inning start but there were already signs that he was  losing it at the end of 5. Nobody getting loose to start the next inning and we let Reynaldo throw more pitches than he has in his career (I presume) to give up 4 more runs for god knows what reason
