White Sox Seize Playoff Momentum | Sports News

The White Sox took a hit Tuesday night, losing to the Pirates and shrinking their AL Central lead to just two games over Cleveland — while Houston now lurks only 1.5 games behind for that coveted second seed. That spot means skipping the Wild Card round, getting extra rest, and sending fresh arms into October — a massive advantage. With 18 games left, the Sox have a golden window: they face a weary Guardians team and an off-day before a key Thursday matchup, while the Astros battle Philly’s elite pitching. This is their chance to seize momentum, capitalize on favorable matchups, and build that playoff cushion before it’s too late.
