Despite miscues, Sox ride strong start by Cease to top Astros 3-1
If there's one silver lining to the White Sox's putrid start, it's that they're in a truly awful division.
"You're probably not going to believe this, but I don't really look at the division that much," Grifol said before his team's 3-1 victory over Houston at Guaranteed Rate Field on Saturday."This is the team that I'm concerned with. We've got to fix our own stuff, our own troubles. We've got to improve in a lot of areas.
Luis Robert Jr.'s improvement from a wretched start continued as well, with the slugger blasting a solo home run in the fourth inning and adding a go-ahead RBI single in the eighth. Robert is now 17-for-41 with 5 home runs and 13 RBIs in his last 12 games. Before that, he was hitting .213 with 5 HRs and 13 RBIs in 28 games.
