Chicago White Sox pitcher Zach Stewart threw a 1-hitter in blanking the Minnesota Twins, 4-0 in the second game of a day-night doubleheader. Stewart retired the first 21 batters he faced, a perfect game for 7 innings, until Danny Valencia hit a double to lead off the 8th inning for the Twins. Stewart kept his composure and retired the next six hitters he faced for a 1 hitter in a terrific outing tonight. Stewart was almost unhittable. Where was that pitching in the Detroit series?
The White Sox got lambasted vs. Detroit and looked out-classed by a better team. Then their pitching comes together and this team looks pretty good. Stewart (2-3) struck out 9 and walked none in his first career complete game. His effort was almost historic. And, it was a night he won't forget.
