White Sox top Rays on walk-off walk

Even so, that drive sparked the biggest celebration. But his Tampa teammates honored the baseball tradition of ignoring the rookie after his first home run.

“He is human, and that’s part of going through a long season”, Ventura said.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale delivers during the first inning of a baseball game against the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday, August 4, 2015, in Chicago. And the Rays matched their highest home run total since September 7. Parker has three hits in his last two games, improving his batting average to. It continued a trend for the Rays, who scored all of their runs with two outs.

Pinch-runner Taylor Featherston scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the ninth inning to culminate a three-run rally that gave the Los Angeles Angels a 4-3 win over the Cleveland Indians. Shaffer took it in good fun and high-fived invisible teammates as he made his way through the empty dugout. TV cameras caught his parents jumping out of their seats and hugging.

Shaffer, who played third base in 2012, was a two-time, First-Team All-ACC selection, as he became the first Tiger in history to be named First-Team All-ACC at two different infield positions over the course of a career. After allowing a two-out solo homer to Longoria, he walked second baseman Logan Forsythe before being relieved by right-hander Matt Albers. The over is also 5-1 in the last six meetings and a flawless 9-0 in the White Sox’ last nine games overall. Ramirez, 25, will carry a strong 3.83 ERA and 1.10 WHIP into his next start at home against the Braves. The four-time All-Star gave up six hits over 5-plus innings. “I’m not leaving my team a chance to win; I’m not doing my job at all”. It’s just not showing up.

He left trailing 5-1 after Kiermaier blooped an RBI single to center. Center fielder Adam Eaton’s throw home dribbled through the legs of catcher Tyler Flowers.

The Sox have given Sale rest in past seasons to deal with arm soreness and fatigue, but Ventura said he doesn’t expect to skip one of Sale’s starts now.
