The White Sox (69-50) entered today having lost four of their last five games. Things did not appear to be getting easier, as a strong opponent in the Athletics (68-51) came to town. However, the South Siders battled back to take the first game of this four-game series in Chicago.
The Starters
Dallas Keuchel struggled in the second inning, when the Athletics scored their only two runs of the game. Matt Chapman launched his 18th home run of the season, and Keuchel struggled with his control throughout that inning.
