Key Points:

- Sam Antonacci contributed significantly at the top of the order with a leadoff walk and key hits that set up scoring opportunities, helping the Sox rally from behind.
- The Sox offense exploded in the ninth inning, scoring five runs to secure a 10-3 victory, highlighted by timely hitting from Vargas, Acuña, Grichuk, and Montgomery.
- Chicago improved to seven games over .500, with Vargas setting a new career high of 61 RBIs before the team has even reached 100 games, while Colson Montgomery is day-to-day after a shin injury.
