Early indications are that White Sox hitters have embraced a more disciplined approach at the plate. But with five positional regulars on the injured list, the Sox rolled out a lineup that was one-third minor league free-agent signings, so it stood to reason that Luis Robert Jr. would need to get cracking.
The former All-Star homered to tie the game at 2 in the sixth, and opened the ninth by working a seven-pitch walk against Aroldis Chapman before stealing his league-leading sixth base, setting himself up to easily score the game-winner as Brooks Baldwin recognized a splitter out of the hand and walked it off with a lashed RBI single to left.
