White Sox's Michael Kopech: Tosses scoreless frame

Kopech struck out one over a scoreless inning in Tuesday's spring game against San Diego.

Kopech made his first game appearance in nearly a year, as his last one came March 10, 2020. Seven of his nine pitches went for strikes, and his fastball clocked in between 97 and 99 mph, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports. The flame-throwing prospect will pitch out of the bullpen to start the season, but he could eventually move into the rotation.
