On too many nights this season, and certainly during the first two games in Queens, a more patient White Sox offense can resemble someone trying to assemble a ship in a bottle while sitting on a washing machine. Every new effort to string enough walks and singles together conjures less a feeling of threat, but a wait to see what sort of spin cycle will make it fall apart.
What Wednesday’s rescheduled getaway day finale showed is that it only takes a big flash of doubles power to make this newly healthy Sox lineup occasionally resemble a pack of carpenter ants swarming a fallen donut hole. White Sox hitters socked a season-high five doubles, while Andrew Benintendi tripled and homered in a sweep-avoiding victory that resembled a low-grade exorcism of the two losses that preceded it.
