Key Points:

  • Miguel Vargas extended Orioles reliever Grant Wolfram in an 11-pitch at-bat before Colson Montgomery's go-ahead two-out RBI double helped the White Sox take a lead they would not relinquish.
  • Randal Grichuk contributed key hits late, including reversing two calls on sliders to get on base and driving in an insurance run, aiding the Sox's six-run rally in the final two innings.
  • The Orioles' defense faltered in the ninth inning with two errors on the left side of the infield, allowing the White Sox to extend their lead and secure the win.
  • White Sox pitcher Sean Burke delivered a solid outing with eight strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings, despite some self-induced trouble in the third inning that allowed the Orioles to tie the game temporarily.
  • The victory ended the White Sox’s nine-game losing streak against the Orioles, boosted by strong performances from Andrew Vaughn and Colson Montgomery.
