The Chicago White Sox defeated the Los Angeles Angels in a thrilling 3-2 comeback victory on Tuesday night. The Angels took a two-run lead in the seventh inning thanks to RBIs from Eric Wagaman and Jack López, who also hit his first major league home run in the eighth. However, López’s celebration was short-lived as he made a crucial error in the field by dropping a pop-up that allowed the White Sox to score the tying run and take the lead on the next pitch. The loss brought the Angels to the brink of tying their franchise record for most losses in a season.
Despite the disappointing outcome, Angels pitcher Jack Kochanowicz delivered a strong performance, pitching seven scoreless innings and striking out four batters with no walks. Kochanowicz has shown promise in his rookie season, with an impressive ERA of 4.01 in his first 10 major league starts. Manager Ron Washington praised Kochanowicz’s resilience and work ethic, highlighting his potential as a key player for the team in the future.
The Angels will look to bounce back from this loss and avoid tying their franchise record for most losses in a season as they continue their series against the White Sox. With the season winding down, the team will have to regroup and focus on finishing strong in their remaining games. Despite the challenges they have faced this season, the Angels remain optimistic about their young talent and the potential for future success.
