SF Giants nearly make franchise history while spoiling White Sox home opener with Disco-dinger party

CHICAGO — Ringing in the White Sox home opener Monday, it was the Giants who threw a party. Call it a Disco-dinger bash.

Rebounding from a season-opening series loss in New York, the Giants launched seven home runs — four in one inning and two from David Villar — while Anthony DeSclafani turned in six sharp frames in a 12-3 win. It even featured a special guest, DeSclafani’s fiery alter ego (Tony D?) who jawed and lunged at a Chicago player, just one of many retired by the San Francisco right-hander in his first start since last June.

DeSclafani’s counterpart, White Sox starter Michael Kopech, proved to be just the medicine San Francisco’s bats needed after being blanked twice in their first three games of the season.
