Eduardo Rodríguez had two consecutive defeats during the month of May, something that he undoubtedly wanted to leave behind to return to the victorious path. For this occasion, the Valencian returned to the mound with the mission of keeping the Detroit Tigers in the fight for the American Central Division.
For the first time in the season, he faced the Chicago White Sox, a team that almost couldn’t figure it out for six innings. Rodríguez, who went without a decision, only allowed five hits and an earned run on a home run by Romy González in the third inning. In addition, he gave away two tickets and struck out six rivals.

In this way, the left-handed pitcher left a mark of four wins and four losses in 11 starts. His ERA was 2.13 and in 67.2 innings of work he has struck out 67 opponents.
Likewise, it should be remembered that in his first two appearances in May, against the New York Mets and Cleveland Guardians, the native won without allowing scores, striking out 17 opponents and allowing six hits in 15 innings.
In the end, Detroit left Chicago (6-5) on the ground on Eric Haase’s sacrifice fly for Spencer Torkelson to score. The team led by manager AJ Hinch now has a 25-26 record, while Pedro Grifol’s men remain at 22-33, five behind Detroit.
