Colson Montgomery drew a seven-pitch walk to start the key seventh, Chase Meidroth followed with a go-ahead hit, and five White Sox relievers combined to hold Oakland to four hits in a 1-0 win. Erick Fedde earned the win, Grant Taylor secured the save, and Acuña’s defense plus Grichuk’s late defensive plays helped preserve the shutout as the Sox improved to 49-45.
White Sox edge the Guardians 7-6 in Cleveland to split the series, overcoming two costly defensive innings and missed bases-loaded chances, getting a pivotal three-run blast from Gabriel Arias to tie the game, then riding a late-innings rally and a 1⅓-inning save to seal the win and reclaim sole possession of first in the AL Central.
The White Sox snapped a seven-series road skid by erupting for seven runs in the third inning and rolling to a 9-3 win at Camden Yards, securing a road series on the trip for the first time since early May. Colson Montgomery’s two-run homer and Junior Pérez’s first-pitch three-run shot highlighted the outbreak, Erick Fedde delivered a solid back-end start with an opener, and Tyler Schweitzer closed with a four-inning save—the first White Sox four-inning save since 2002. The win also pushed Chicago two games up in the AL Central after Cleveland’s loss, capping a June in which they went 13-12.
Late six-run surge powers the White Sox to an 8-2 victory over the Orioles, highlighted by Colson Montgomery’s go-ahead RBI double after Miguel Vargas's 11-pitch battle, Grichuk delivering an insurance RBI in the eighth, Sam Antonacci sparking the two-run frame, and Sean Burke striking out eight over 5 1/3 innings as Chicago snaps a nine-game skid against Baltimore and improves to 44-39.
Detroit walked off Chicago 5-4 in 10 innings after the White Sox bullpen relinquished a two-run lead. Davis Martin spun six solid innings for Chicago, but Bryan Hudson’s run of scoreless relief gave way to Taylor and Domínguez allowing the late blows; Dillon Dingler tied the game with a solo homer in the eighth, Jacob Gonzalez sparked a 10th-inning rally that put the Sox up 4-3, and Matt Vierling’s bases-loaded flare ended it for Detroit.
Davis Martin pitched six scoreless innings and Braden Montgomery provided the early spark in a two-run fourth, as the White Sox defeated the Braves 2-1 to move into first place in the AL Central for the first time since the final day of 2021, with strong late-game defense and bullpen work sealing the win.
The White Sox jumped to an early 4-0 lead and rode Erick Fedde’s strong outing to an 8-0 win over the Twins in Minneapolis, with Sam Antonacci reaching base six times (four hits) and Miguel Vargas driving in runs as Chicago’s bullpen finished off the shutout. The lopsided victory comes on the heels of a grueling 13-game stretch and sets up a welcome off day before the next series, while Minnesota’s offense offered little resistance.
Montgomery tied it with a homer off Montero, then in the seventh Meidroth singled and Jacob Gonzalez—in his MLB debut with his first hit—delivered an opposite-field single before Tristan Peters followed with another knock, pushing across the go-ahead run as the White Sox beat Detroit 2-1 to complete a Central sweep; Eisert earned the win and Davis the save as Chicago improved to 32-27 and extended its win streak to five.
Miguel Vargas launched a hanging second-pitch changeup into the left-field seats for a walk-off homer in the 10th, giving the White Sox a 4-3 win over Detroit after they went 1-for-14 with runners in scoring position. Chicago nearly let the game slip in extras, Murakami left early with a hamstring strain, and the team needed a late rally (Benintendi scoring on Nishida’s ninth-inning RBI) to force extras before Vargas delivered the winner off Tigers reliever Drew Anderson.
Back home after a west-coast trip, the White Sox beat the Twins 3-1 on two homers (Murakami’s solo to tie the AL HR lead and Romo’s two-run shot), with Anthony Kay going six strong innings and the bullpen closing it out; Rikuu Nishida’s standout arm helped erase a Twins threat at the plate, lifting Chicago to 27-26 on the season.
Chicago’s offense erupts for nine runs in the fourth inning, aided by two HBPs and Giants mistakes, propelling the White Sox to a 9-4 win over San Francisco as Davis Martin improves to 7-1.
