ANAHEIM, Calif. — The White Sox lost the strangest game on Tuesday night. There were a couple of bloopers that found holes in the bottom of the 11th to set up the winning rally.

The Chicago White Sox third baseman isn’t going to win any foot races or surprise anyone with his speed.  It’s a good thing, then, that he’s got the brains to compensate.
