The Chicago White Sox are in a slump, getting shut out again—this time 4-0—marking their eighth scoreless game this season. Facing the Boston Red Sox, they’ve been outscored 18-2 in just two games. Sean Burke, pitching near home in Massachusetts, gave up two runs in four innings and admitted he didn’t feel his best, especially with family in the stands. The Red Sox jumped ahead early on a wild pitch and single, then extended their lead with a Wilyer Abreu homer. Despite escaping a jam in the fourth, Burke couldn’t hold them off. Sonny Gray dominated for Boston, striking out eight over six scoreless innings. The White Sox’s best chance came when they loaded the bases in the third, but a runner was thrown out at home. Still clinging to a three-game AL Central lead, the Sox need offensive answers fast—or risk losing their grip on first place.
