When he returns to the White Sox after his battle with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, closer Liam Hendriks wants to be 100%. He might need a little more time to get there.
Hendriks told media Friday in Charlotte, North Carolina, that the tentative plan is for him to pitch again Sunday for the Triple-A Knights, then again Tuesday or Wednesday before he and the Sox reassess his next steps. Pitching on a second consecutive day Thursday, Hendriks allowed four runs — including two home runs — in two-thirds of an inning.
