I didn't activate Matt Lindstrom right away, though the White Sox activated him today from the dl. When I saw Sale was pulled in the ninth I figured Petricka would be pitching, he was, and he loaded the bases with no outs.
A brilliant play (dive right, grab and glove throw) by Beckham led to a double play, a run scored, but two outs situation with a man on third. Then Petricka allowed a hit to Brandon Crawford and the tying run scored.
I'm peeved, but I'm 10 wins up on the third place team, so that probably doesn't matter.
And I'm kind of excited, because the team I'm battling for first place traded for Petricka and Putnam last week at the deadline. So their demise would be sweet, and if Matt Lindstrom were to save 10+ games the rest of the way? A point for me.
Gold in a tight contest, which this is.
Unlikely for Lindstrom to get 10 saves, but it's the reason I'm trying to rein in a dodgy internet connection in the mountains after everyone has gone to bed.
Sale was brilliant by all accounts tonight, by the way. Which is why I posted here.

Rotoworld's take:
The White Sox announced earlier Monday that Sale wouldn't make his next scheduled start due to "general soreness," but now we have more details. The good news is that the left-hander has no ligament damage in his elbow, but a flexor strain is still something that could cause a lengthy absence. Charlie Leesman will replace Sale in Chicago's rotation

It's always seemed to me that the Verducci Effect had another name: The Plexiglas Principle. Guys who experience a big increase in innings usually do so because they're doing pretty well. Plus they're young.
Next year they regress a little, or they don't match outsized expectations, thus disappointing.
Personally, I was disappointed by Sale's 2013. I'm looking for him to bounce back this year and earn $38. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Tome Verducci's Year-After Effect.
"In the past seven years Verducci has red-flagged 69 pitchers [age 25 or under, spike of at least 30 IP over the previous season, including the minors]; 55 of them experienced the Year-After Effect." The effect being they ranged between disappointing and awful.
"The YAE could have a new poster boy this year: White Sox starter Chris Sale."
The numbers are indeed alarming.
Sale "put up by far the largest increase ever (+121) in Year After tracking." The previous record was +98 (Paul Maholm in 2005).
Here are the five other pitchers that Verducci put the hex on in last year's issue (with their 2012 IP jump):
Jarrod Parker (+78)
Jose Quintana (+63)
Joe Kelly (+55)
Stephen Strasburg (+36)
Chris Rubin (+34)
Small sample size, to be sure. In part because managers and pitching coaches know all about the Verducci Effect.

Hawkins had a no-hitter 2 outs into the 8th inning against the White Sox at Old Comisky. Sosa reached on an error by Mike Blowers at 3B. He walked the next two batters to load the bases. Jim Leyritz then dropped a fly ball to left off the bat of Robin Ventura. All three runners scored. Ivan Calderon then hit one to Jesse Barfield in RF, which he lost in the sun and dropped, scoring Ventura.
He wasn't as dominant as the big K losers, but it really stood out to me as a horrendous loss at the time. 8 IP 0 H 0 ER 5 BB 3 K. As it was, the Yankees didn't score anyway.
