The White Sox stranded 11 baserunners and wasted another strong Dylan Cease start, losing to the Kansas City Royals 5-3 Thursday at Kauffman Stadium.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Andrew Vaughn blooped a single to right field in the third inning Thursday against the Kansas City Royals.
“We had hits, had a real good effort,” Sox manager Tony La Russa said. “The guy on the mound has made a real good career at pitching out of that. Cease was outstanding but we got ready to play. We created the rallies, we were rallying late.Cease allowed one run — a homer to Vinnie Pasquantino in the second inning — on three hits with eight strikeouts and two walks in six innings.
The Royals added an insurance run in the eighth. Vaughn hit a solo homer in the ninth before Scott Barlow retired the next three as the Sox dropped three of four in the series. The first two batters reached in the second, followed by a flyout and double play. They had the three straight singles in the scoreless third.“The ball is caught by the right fielder and he’s halfway not tagging up we’d be upset,” La Russa said. “So he stayed close to the bag. All you can do, get to third base. I’d rather him get to third base with one out guy caught the fly ball.
