BOSTON — Dylan Cease had his best start since Opening Day on Saturday and matched his longest outing of the season. Luis Robert Jr. hit his shortest major-league homer ever.
Lowering his ERA to 4.66 with seven scoreless innings against the Red Sox, Cease struck out 11 batters and issued no walks in a 1-0 victory for the White Sox. He gave up seven hits, exiting with no score in a pitching duel with Nick Pivetta played in steady drizzle and rain.
