Before the game starts, there are a few things to come from the Chicago White Sox Twitter account today:
Not a great start.
Prior to today’s game vs. San Francisco, the #WhiteSox placed outfielder Eloy Jiménez on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 4) with a low-grade left hamstring strain and recalled infielder Jake Burger from Class AAA Charlotte.

It’s also CPS day, and fans have some recent reasons to celebrate.

Dylan Cease starts with a walk.
Cease will not throw a perfect game today
— Scott Merkin (@scottmerkin) April 5, 2023
It got better, though.

The bottom of the first with RISP? Not a problem for AV, as he hits an RBI double. It’s 1-0, White Sox.
Andrew Vaughn just hits.
— White Sox Truther (@SamR33v3s) April 5, 2023
Gavin Bonds extends that lead, despite a terrible send for AV.
Sheets singles home a second run, but Vaughn is nailed at the plate to end the first. 2-0 White Sox
— Scott Merkin (@scottmerkin) April 5, 2023
The Giants cut the lead by half in the second.
CONFIRMED: The Giants hit a lot of home runs

Andrew Vaughn takes a 109 mph hit straight through his glove.
Literally through the glove isn't something you see everyday.

The White Sox are getting chippy on some poor calls at the plate.
Tim Anderson just got ejected. It wasn't clear whether he struck out for a pitch clock violation or because the umpire didn't acknowledge that he called time and counted the third strike thrown.
— James Fegan (@JRFegan) April 5, 2023
Based on their continued disagreement, I doubt there's much clarity on it.
Even our Giants friends agree:
I agree with Robert this strike zone is WHACK #sfgiants #whitesox

He stayed in the game, but I’m going to need a healthy Moncada. I’m adding steel-toed cleats.
Stay hot, Yoan Moncada. Which also means we should probably wrap him in bubble wrap as well just for precautionary reasons.

Dylan Cease is having a really good afternoon.
That's ACE shit right there!
— Ryiin (@rfoto) April 5, 2023
Not great. Just good.
Dylan Cease: 5 IP, 2 H, ER, 5 BB, 8 K, HR, 52 of 99 pitches for strikes, with 17 swinging strikes
— James Fegan (@JRFegan) April 5, 2023
Walking five but not allowing any of those walks to score is a pinnacle example of: great job, never do that again.
A milestone has occurred in the bottom of the fifth!
HE DID IT! pic.twitter.com/8CCMkbKY7a

Another run is added from a nice hit by Hanser Alberto, and it’s 3-1, Sox.
Hanser!!!!
— Mike (@SoxMike242) April 5, 2023
Luis Robert Jr. doubles in a run to put the Sox up, 4-1.

Our favorite relief pitcher came in during the sixth.
Appreciate the quick inning Diekman but my trust in you remains at zero
— SoxOptimist (@OptimistSox) April 5, 2023
Do White Sox fans have nerves of steel? ReyLo handled a bases-loaded, full-count plate appearance, with two outs, and I didn’t worry once!

YO KNOWS CLUTCH! It’s 5-1 in the seventh.
The Sox actually did something with bases loaded because Moncada KNOWS CLUTCH
— Johnny Cueto Lego (@Baseballjerko) April 5, 2023
Puns on puns.
I guess you could say Hjelle got himself into a jam.

Sheets keeps it going, with a two-run single.
SOX ARE COOKIN

Oh, also, there was a cat in attendance.
So somehow we have found a cat… pic.twitter.com/wLyAQVNnma

Joe Kelly is in. He’s already allowed a hit, but at least his hair is cool.
I’ll say it. I dig Joe Kelly’s hair
— Caleb McKee (@CalebTMcKee) April 5, 2023
Sigh.
Still can’t believe Tony La Russa signed Joe Kelly to that contract
— Bennett Karoll (@TheBennettK) April 5, 2023
It’s now 7-3, thanks to our pitcher ...
Joe Smelly
— Nate (@NateBBY35) April 5, 2023
The big lead was enough, though, and that’s a White Sox winner!
That’s a #WhiteSox winner over the San Francisco (They Might Be) Giants pic.twitter.com/YbWI7UaUv7

In my best Ed Farmer voice. Sox Win. Sox Win. Sox Win. #WhiteSox
