Summary
Drew Thorpe’s rehab journey hits a major milestone as he pitches two scoreless innings in his first game action since July 2024, overcoming multiple setbacks including a flexor strain, elbow bone spur, Tommy John surgery, and even an appendectomy. With arm strength and endurance steadily rebuilding, Thorpe found strength in camaraderie with fellow rehabbers Ky Bush and Mason Adams. His solid outing—just one hit, three strikeouts, no walks—was a key step toward returning to the mound. He’s set to pitch three innings Friday with High-A Winston-Salem, with longer outings ahead if all goes well. Thorpe, acquired in the Dylan Cease trade, is thrilled by the White Sox’s current momentum and team chemistry, and manager Will Venable is equally eager to see him back on the field—both for Thorpe’s comeback and the team’s success.
