MLB: Adrián Martínez was knocked down by a sharply hit ball up the middle by Chicago White Sox outfielder Gavin Sheets in the second inning.
Still, the scene evoked memories of former A’s pitcher Chris Bassitt’s scary accident last August in Chicago when he was hit in the face by Brian Goodwin’s rocket back toward the mound.
Elvis Andrus continued his terrorization of A’s pitchers, hitting a three-run homer in the second inning to give the White Sox a 4-0 lead. Former Cal standout Andrew Vaughn had four of his team’s 20 hits, including a two-RBI double, and pitcher Lance Lynn allowed three hits in six innings. Andrus homered and scored three runs Thursday, then hit a two-run double in the ninth inning Friday to help give his team a 5-3 win.
