Shane Smith Gives up 1 Hit in a Career-High 7 Innings, White Sox Beat the Royals 7

Shane Smith pitched a career-high seven innings allowing one hit as the White Sox scored early and hit two home runs to secure a 7-0 win over the Royals.

  • On Monday, All-Star rookie Shane Smith threw one-hit, seven scoreless innings, facing 23 batters on 80 pitches with one walk and three strikeouts to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 7 win over the Kansas City Royals at Rate Field.
  • Chicago's offense provided early separation when Edgar Quero, Lenyn Sosa and Curtis Mead each hit RBI doubles in the first inning, and Korey Lee's two-run homer plus Brooks Baldwin's solo shot in the fourth pushed the lead to 6-0.
  • Smith dominated the Royals with a fastball-curveball mix, not allowing a baserunner until the third while throwing 84 mph curveballs and 97 mph four-seamers; Kansas City managed only two hits, including Mike Yastrzemski's ground-rule double.
  • The win extended the White Sox's recent run, marking their third straight victory after losing 14 of 18 and improving the South Siders to 3-1 in 17 games in 17 days.
  • Smith's outing continued a recent rebound as the Rule 5 pick made his fourth straight strong start, while the club rested Colson Montgomery and Kyle Teel Monday to protect its young core amid Teel's new cold-tub routine.
