Officially signed by the team Tuesday afternoon, Adrian Houser moved right into the Chicago White Sox rotation by starting in the evening.

Houser only gave up one hit the first time through the Seattle lineup, and went 1-2-3 in the second, where he also earned his first strikeout with Chicago, ringing up Leody Taveras to end the frame. Houser nearly sat the M’s down in order again in the third, but walked JP Crawford before getting the final out of the inning.

He’s going to put the ball on the ground against righties and [Houser's] got some different ways to get lefties out,” manager Will Venable said. “Excited to add him to the mix.”
