Bottom 8
Aaron Bummer on the bump to face the top of the Angels batting order. Bad luck to start the inning, as Fletcher reaches base after a come backer glances off the glove of Bummer. Most likely an out if the ball goes through untouched. Oh boy. Madrigal with a bad throw to second that pulls Anderson off the bag. E4 and now Trout is up with two on and no one out. [video width="1058" height="596" mp4="https://www.sportsmockery.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Error.mp4"][/video] Nothing going right for the White Sox. Grandal can't handle a pitch, which allows Fletcher to go to third. Ohtani stays at first. Passed ball called on Grandal. Trout makes the Sox pay. Single to left and it's tied 3-3. Rendon up with runners at first and second, still no outs. Huge strikeout by Bummer. Rendon swings through an inside slider. What a battle between Bummer and Upton. The 11-pitch plate appearance ends with a walk to load the bases. There was a brutal missed call on what was a clear strike early in the at-bat. Not looking great, but Pujols is a great double play candidate. Bummer gets a ground ball, but it's a high chopper to third and Moncada only has one play at first to get Pujols. Angels lead 4-3, runners at second and third with two outs. Matt Foster now in for the Sox. Moncada throws out a hustling Iglesias to end the eighth. Score: White Sox 3, Angels 4Top 9
