Angels Lose to White Sox, 5-4
The Chicago White Sox picked up a win at Angel Stadium of Anaheim, knocking off the Los Angeles Angels, 5-4. Starting pitcher Rocky Thompson was a big reason why. Thompson, now 1-0, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 1, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Chicago goes to 2-1.

Chicago used a clutch at-bat from Addison Russell to capture the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the White Sox ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"You can never predict what'll happen," Russell said. "That's why you play the game."
