White Sox, Guardians ready for split doubleheader after postponement
Briefly

Kyle Manzardo is set to return for the Cleveland Guardians after missing three games due to his mother's heart transplant surgery. The game against the Chicago White Sox was postponed because of rain, leading to a split doubleheader scheduled for Friday. The Guardians are benefiting from some rest after a long streak of games and recently swept the Houston Astros. Slade Cecconi's performance helped secure a victory in the final game of that series. The upcoming matchups feature various pitchers with recent histories impacting their performance.
The Guardians are coming off a road sweep of Houston on the heels of a 10-game losing streak. Slade Cecconi delivered seven innings of two-run ball to key a 4-2 victory.
Initially set to pitch Thursday, Cannon will aim to string together successive victories for the second time this season after delivering 5 1/3 innings of two-run, eight-hit ball against Colorado.
