Johnny Cueto submitted six shutout innings in his White Sox debut, flashing all the qualities that have made him a top-end starter for more than a decade.
"He's very deceptive," manager Tony La Russa told reporters with a grin.
It was true mow-down performance until the sixth inning, when a Kyle Isbel double and Whit Merrifield walk placed runners on first and second with one out. But Cueto cooly induced a soft flyout from Andrew Benintendi and a swinging strikeout from Salvador Pérez — the Royals’ No. 2 and 3 hitters — to end the threat.
A hearty fist-pump followed Cueto’s whiff of Perez. He exited with a 3-0 lead, but ultimately drew a no-decision because of the Royals forcing extra innings with a three-run rally in the eighth. "That's what I work for," Cueto told reporters through Russo when asked about the 92.8 mile per hour fastball that sat down Kansas City's catcher."I know that I have to save energy during my outing. And then once I know that my last balls are gonna be thrown then I just go for more."
