White Sox Struggle Offense Again | Houston Astros News

White Sox fall 2-0 to Astros in a gut-wrenching loss fueled by offensive paralysis and shaky eighth-inning drama. Davis Martin pitches well in his IL return, tossing five shutout innings, but the bats go ice cold—just one hit in seven at-bats with runners in scoring position and six stranded. The Astros break the scoreless tie with two runs on a single after loading the bases, then a double play kills any Sox rally. Pitchers kept them in it, but base-running blunders and lack of offense sealed the fate. This loss gives Houston the tiebreaker edge for playoff seeding, though the Sox still hold a 2.5-game lead. With the postseason looming, this is the kind of game they can’t afford to repeat. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
