Luis Castillo delivered the performance the White Sox were seeking when they acquired him from the Mariners at the trade deadline, striking out 10 batters over seven innings Wednesday night in a 5-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
Castillo allowed one hit in the dominant outing, per Yahoo Sports, in just his second appearance since joining Chicago. ESPN reported the shutout came against Reds starter Rhett Lowder. According to Sportsnet, the White Sox combined for a two-hitter overall.
Chase Meidroth contributed a two-run homer, while Drew Romo added a solo shot, per Sportsnet's accounting of the scoring. The game was played in Chicago.
