The game stretched on a touch longer than it needed to, mostly due to a rain delay but also due to a bottom-of-the-ninth homer. Let’s recap this wild ride, ending in a 5-4 win for the White Sox.
The South Siders had the potential to make some offensive noise early in the first with Tarik Skubal issuing a one-out walk to Yermín Mercedes, followed immediately by a walk to Yoán Moncada. José Abreu came up and lined out, but an error on a throw from Harold Castro still managed to advance both Mercedes and Moncada. Unfortunately, the White Sox were unable to capitalize, as Andrew Vaughn came up and struck out.
