Good morning, White Sox fans. Here's what's in today's Wake-Up Call:

• The Sox will still be searching for their first series win against a team that isn't the Royals after a disheartening loss to the Pirates on Tuesday night. * At least the Barons are still good
• The Dash, too. 
• James Paxton throws a no-hitter, Dylan Bundy can't get anybody out, all AL Central teams are under .500 and there are two AL East teams at 25-10.

Good morning. Here's your White Sox Wake-Up Call:

• Last night: The White Sox defense tried to prop up a shaky bullpen, but the contact Joakim Soria allowed couldn't be flagged down, and he blew the save. 
• Down on the farm: Michael Kopech is tested, Dylan Cease isn't, and the organization hands out awards.
• Around the league: Late homers aplenty, and Adam Eaton's ankle injury continues to be worse than initially expected.
