Burdi allowed one hit and struck out two over a scoreless inning in Saturday's 7-1 loss to Cleveland.
Burdi was recalled from the alternate training site Saturday after the White Sox placed Aaron Bummer (biceps) on the injured list. This could be a chance for the Burdi to showcase his talent after dealing with significant elbow and knee injuries since joining the organization. Burdi featured a 99-MPH fastball and command of his slider in Saturday's scoreless inning. The right-hander might be used to pick up some of the slack from Bummer's injury if he continues to pitch well.
