White Sox vs. Giants Game Highlights (8/21/24) | MLB Highlights

We have a great pitching matchup today. We sure do. I mean, if you like pitching and you like punching tickets. Well, this is probably your type of game right now on the hill today for the Giants will be Logan Webb, Logan Webb 61, 220 pound, 27 year old who is in his sixth year at the big league level leads the national league in innings pitched and averaging eight strikeouts per nine innings. Sox were held to three hits and a 4 to 1 defeat last night. That one driven pretty well out to center and it is going to be the ball. Kam's off the wall in center Lopez around second hustling for third and it's a leadoff triple for the Sox. He face planted basically because he became like a long dark. The dirt is a little bit moist so his chest stuck, but he crawled to the bag and finished with that triple. He crushed that to start this game against the guy that we just mentioned is going to give us problems. I was lying. Robert's gonna make it out and Lopez has to hold still chances for the White Sox to cash in this leadoff triple infield in ground ball, Lopez is going to score. Not sure if it's a White Sox game plan, but robert and be right at the first pitch. A lot of times a pitcher is going to come right at you after a one pitch out. So might be the best pitch. You see, he got ad bases empty for Andrew Vaughn and swung on and struck him out and the inning is over on the mound for the 26th time so far this year, he will to build on an excellent start in Houston last week, 16 game on base streak coming in to today and make that 17. Now, early on the command that has been so good for Crochet. Not quite here in San francisco yet 1 to 0 pitch can hits the ground and a third going to second in time is so he made a quick decision and a quick throw and just got Fitzgerald. If he really went in there with his leg extended, it's probably safe. That's a risky play by Sosa that fortunately paid off. He'll get another chance here. They'll try to turn two and they will. That was much better getting that ball to second base. He's got good stuff today just he got ambushed the first hitter of the game, hit a triple against him, Nicky Lopez and that turned into what is so far the game's only run two, got him swinging another change up this one in the dirt as we gets his second strikeout. Here's Baldwin. Baldwin doesn't waste any time Logan. We is not going to care if they're hitting the ball and making out you like, thanks. This turned out to be an easy day. Here's a, the ball is starting to lead to the Giants dugout back doors with a breaking ball. This is just perfection. Lopez one pitch later, Three strikeouts. That's a 123 inning for one white sox. Last of the third Schmidt pitch , Casey hits one fair inside the bag down the third base line. It's going to kick up against the side wall be will play the car and relay it back in the second case, Schmidt, he got himself a leadoff double babe Casali at the plate, swings it to first and hits a liner to shallow center. Robert slides in and makes the catch play by robert because of the great jump. He had the nine hitter, Grant mcrae, the only lefty in the lineup for the Giants against Crochet and he got him on a sweeper and that will do it leadoff double wasted. Go to the fourth still 1 to 0 white sox 1 to 2 on luis eight hits including two home runs on this trip. He drives this one toward the corner and right and see how far he can go. Encarnacion will get it back in and not a good throw, but Robert had already dropped anchor at second. So it's a leadoff double to open the fourth. Benet hits a fly ball to right center field Encarnacion back and will make the catch in the gap. Robert will tag and move up to third infield in against Bond, a high fly ball to left center Ramos settles under Robert tagging and we got to play. No, we so for little league outfielder, this is not the inning to watch. No two, nothing a base hit for sheets. So here's corey Lee wraps this one fair chapman. Look at this play. He does it every day and a lot of times he makes it look so easy. Two white sox in the bottom of the fourth more. Garrett Crochet. Here's can wrapped in the left center field. Robert got a good jump. It's over his head and it bounces over the wall for a double. That was one of the match ups we were looking forward to today and Canada did not disappoint. All right. Well, let's see if Ramos can shorten up the swing a little bit and try to get a ball in play. Get can over to third, at least Ramos hits a ball to deep center field. Robert going back at the wall, he'll leap and it's off the top of the wall. It stays in play can is coming to third and he'll have to stop there. A booming double that missed being a home run by inches. It's only 49 pitches for Crochet so far. Here's his 22 Encarnacion groundball right side balls get a field and he'll throw to first coming in to score is, can the Giants are on the board? It's 2 to 1. Giants did one thing they scored and they're getting some pitches out of Crochet here in the fourth and put the ball in play. Body language is telling me that Garrett is not real happy about giving up a couple of runs in this inning. I can't imagine. 02 wave and a miss a fastball and Crochet gets him fourth strikeout. But the Giants cash in those extra bases. Giants two white sox 22 down. Nobody on nice swing hard ground ball to first right to can he runs it to the bag three up, three down for Webb. That's a five pitch inning and a big ovation for the fans as he heads off the field. A strong, we was fantastic for the first time. All game giants go to the bullpen. It is still tied 2 to 2 but Miller has walked two in a row and that one really hurts. It's a left handed hitter came into the game hitting only 213 and he got ahead of them, no balls and two strikes and he walked him here is andrew Vaughn. This is a big spot to the hole Fitzgerald just saved a run. It's going to be a hit but that's a great play by Tyler Fitzgerald and the bases are loaded, 22 pitch swearing as he struck him out and that worked whatever works. And here comes Bob Melvin with the right handed hitter coming up and spencer Bivens will get the call here with the bases loaded. So a tight spot for Bivens base hits center field Roberts scores. Here comes Bennee, the throw is going to go to third and it hits jokes on the foot and it will allow Corey Lee to get to second. It's 42. Corey Lee comes through. We talk about andrew Vaughn being from this area. Well, corey Lee also from California went to Cal. This is a huge knock and the White Sox are up two runs here in the top of the ninth in the bay one ball, no strikes on Laine Sosa Sosa lines one through the left side. CS will score Lee coming home 6 to 2. The White Sox lead it with a four run top of the ninth. So two consecutive two run singles here for the White Sox against spencer Bivens and the White Sox as they did against Logan Webb cashing in on their opportunities. Now they got to hold the lead once they go out on the defensive side. White Sox bullpen has been very good in relief of Garrett Crochet. They came in and they brought strikeouts with the Sox an out away from picking up a win. Centerfield, Robert is there and the Sox snap a four game skid with a four run ninth. The Giants fail to do what they wanted to do after winning the first two games and that's get out of here with a sweep is a little frustrating, but you can't dwell on it. You got to get ready for Friday in Seattle.
