No, No, No

Dallas Keuchel was quoted on the White Sox website saying after last night’s 4-3 loss to the Twins, “I feel like if I didn’t have bad luck right now, I wouldn’t have any luck at all.” Yeah, right. Actually, no, Dallas, you made your own luck, starting with the two runs you gave up in the first inning after walking the bases loaded. Where’s the luck in that? Then, with two out in the sixth, you walked Miguel Sano to bring up Willians Astudillo, the poor man’s Yogi Berra. Astudillo went to one knee to nail an inside pitch from Keuchel for a two-run line drive of a homerun. Where’s the luck in that? But maybe Keuchel did have a bit of bad luck. With two outs, he could’ve been lifted for Michael Kopech. Astudillo probably would’ve swung himself out of his shoes chasing Kopech’s fastballs. Manager Tony La Russa thought otherwise. Bad luck, that.
