Some inclement weather in Charlotte led to the Knights’ game being postponed, though the rest of the White Sox affiliates managed to get their action in on Thursday.
The Birmingham Barons saw home runs from Jorge Corona and Adam Fogel along with another extra-base hit from Caleb Bonemer, though lost 6-4 on the road. Winston-Salem split their doubleheader with Greensboro at home, riding five scoreless frames from Jake Curtis in the opener before dropping the second game 7-6, as a two-run rally ultimately fell short in the end.
Elsewhere, Kannapolis dropped a 2-1 pitchers’ duel despite Jaden Fauske going a perfect 3-for-3 on the day. In Arizona, Justin Fuson struck out six over six strong innings to lead the ACL White Sox to a 4-1 victory, with Jackson Appel homering and Yordani Soto collecting two hits. The DSL White Sox didn’t fare quite as well, giving up 13 unanswered runs before mounting an eight-run final inning to help make the 13-8 loss a bit more respectable.
