SURPRISE, Ariz. — Fighting the effects of a sinus infection, White Sox right-hander Mike Clevinger allowed one run and three hits in five innings Wednesday against the Rangers in his second-to-last start of spring training. He struck out three, walked one and got eight ground-ball outs.
In a game that lasted 1 hour, 54 minutes, Rangers hitters were swinging early, a trend Clevinger has noticed all spring. He attributes it to the pitch clock.
