During their home opener <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/giants-news-michael-conforto-gets-100-real-about-looming-chance-to-savor-mets-atmosphere-again" rel="noopener">against the San Francisco Giants</a>, Chicago White Sox first baseman Andrew Vaughn appeared to exchange words Giants pitcher Anthony DeSclafani.</p><p>During the second inning of the Giants’ 12-3 win, Vaughn hit a weak ground ball to the right of the mound. DeSclafani fielded it, tossed the ball to first for the out, then <a href="https://twitter.com/vstathop/status/1642989520630038528" rel="noopener">immediately barked something</a> toward Vaughn as Vaughn jogged back to the White Sox dugout.</p><p>DeSclafani <a href="https://twitter.com/scottmerkin/status/1643020262324027393?s=12&amp;t=bm8qRt18zuhlXFzV7rKRAQ" rel="noopener">told reporters after</a> the game that there are “no ill feelings” toward Vaughn.</p><p>“He just didn’t say a nice word to me. So I just said something back. We’re all competing and there’s no ill feelings toward him. I think he was just upset I threw a 3-0 slider,” DeSclafani said.</p><p>If DeSclafani’s claims are true, what a bizarre thing for Vaughn to be upset about. Of the many “unwritten rules” of baseball, throwing an offspeed pitch in a 3-0 count isn’t an obvious one. Sure pitchers typically do sling a fastball right down the middle in the situation, but there’s no excuse for Vaughn to say something about it, especially considering he swung at the pitch.</p><p>The two faced each other once more later in the game, with Vaughn flying out to right field. Unfortunately for fans of bust-ups like this in baseball, this is the only series <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/giants-news-joey-bart-gets-immediate-medical-decision-after-getting-scratched-vs-yankees" rel="noopener">between the Giants and White Sox</a> this season. Unless the two teams meet in the World Series, Desclafani and Vaughn won’t get the chance to face each other again until next season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

This call from the Giants came just days removed from DeSclafani’s home start against the Cincinnati Reds, where he allowed seven earned runs in 2.2 innings pitched. His ERA on the season ballooned to 9.95.</p><p>Kapler <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/giants-injuries-and-roster-moves" rel="noopener">noted</a> following the decision to place DeSclafani on the IL that there is “real concern” over the right-hander’s nagging ankle injury.</p><blockquote>“When you’re trying to build up to be a starting pitching, hitting a wall with something as important as your drive ankle is not conducive to success going forward,” Kapler said.“I think there’s real concern there. He’s battled through this for a really long time. He’s pushed himself. He’s rehabbed. He’s done everything he possibly can and he’s still hitting the wall.”</blockquote><p>DeSclafani has dealt with this ankle ailment for much of the ongoing campaign. He was <a href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33787741/san-francisco-giants-place-rhp-anthony-desclafani-10-day-injured-list-ankle-inflammation" rel="noopener">listed</a> on the 10-day IL in April due to right ankle inflammation. Although he did not suffer any major setback early in his injury rehab process and was able to throw the baseball in May, the team still elected to take a more conservative route by deciding to transfer him to the 60-day IL in mid-May. In total, he was sidelined for 53 games over his first IL stint of the year.</p><p>This time around, no official timeline has been provided as to when DeSclafani may receive the green light to return to action for the reigning NL West champions.</p><p>DeSclafani opted to stay put with the Giants over the MLB free agency period, signing off on a three-year, $36 million contract.</p><p>For now, the likes of veteran starting pitchers Alex Cobb and Alex Wood may have to rise to the occasion for the Giants as they aim to remain in <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/mlb/san-francisco-giants/" rel="noopener">contention</a> for a wild-card spot in the National League over the remainder of this season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
