White Sox pitcher Garrett Crochet get hit by a comebacker in the third but stays in the game to close out the inning

Garrett Crochet remained in Sunday’s White Sox game against the St. Louis Cardinals after taking a hit off what appeared to be his left foot or ankle.

Crochet was cruising before that moment. He retired the first eight batters of the game with three strikeouts. After walking off the pain for a few minutes, Crochet picked up right where he left off by inducing a fly out to left field from Brendan Donovan.

One inning later he looked just fine fielding his position on a soft comebacker.

The White Sox made Crochet a starter for the first time in his career at the outset of this season. In seven starts before Sunday’s game, Crochet put up a 5.97 ERA with a 1.096 WHIP, 47 strikeouts and just nine walks.
