Game Thread: White Sox at Angels

The South Siders look to take a series from the Halos

The West Coast road trip is already off to a hot start, so let’s see if the guys can keep the momentum going by winning the first series of the trip.

First — a few moves. Dan Altavilla will be out for a couple of weeks and will be replaced by Owen White. Ryan Noda is now Baltimore’s problem.

White Sox social media also celebrated red-hot Colson Montgomery, who is a rising star in baseball.

Now onto the lineup.

Aaron Civale (2-6) will be on the mound tonight. Civale seems to be trending up, despite the 4.41 ERA. We’ll also see a slew of home run hitters tonight, with the young guys all throughout.

As for the Angels, our former North Side neighbor Kyle Hendricks gets the start. Hendricks (6-7) will likely be a good match for Civale, and the bats, with an ERA of 4.73. He has 70 strikeouts, but is not the professor he used to be.

Get your coffee ready because first pitch is 9:07 p.m. CT. You can watch the game on CHSN or listen on ESPN Chicago 1000.
