White Sox's David Holmberg: Hit hard, chased early

Holmberg (2-4) allowed six runs on six hits and four walks while striking out two over three innings in Tuesday's 9-4 loss to the Indians.

Four of the six hits Holmberg allowed went for extra bases, including three home runs. The left-hander allowed runs in each inning pitched and that was enough for manager Rick Renteria, who went to his bullpen early. Holmberg is tentatively scheduled to start Sunday at home against the Giants, but given Tuesday's results, it's fair to wonder if he'll continue forward in the rotation. Carson Fulmer, a minor-league starter that pitched 2.2 scoreless innings Tuesday, could get the next opportunity.
