The Chicago White Sox (5-7) look to bounce back from consecutive losses in this afternoon’s contest against the best the Cactus League has to offer – division rival Cleveland. The Indians (12-2) have been firing on all cylinders early this year and show no signs of slowing up heading into today’s matchup.
Dylan Axelrod (0-0, 1.80 ERA) will make the start for Chicago this afternoon and will be opposed by Josh Tomlin (1-0, 2.00 ERA). The game will be broadcast on Comcast Sports Net Chicago and a radio broadcast is available via MLB.com.
First pitch is slated for 3:05 p.m. CT at Camelback Ranch.
