White Sox push Williams to the limit, Guardians to the brink

Sean Burke delivered a postseason record‑setting performance for Chicago, striking out a string of Cleveland batters and anchoring a 4-3 win that gave the White Sox a 2-0 lead in the ALDS. Gavin Williams opened the game firing fastballs above 100 mph, but after five innings of dominance he was pulled in the sixth as Chicago rallied.

Braden Montgomery’s two‑run double turned the tide, and Chase Meidroth added a crucial insurance run to seal the victory.

The early innings saw Cleveland’s Anthony Kay struggle, while Sean Newcomb and the Sox defense allowed two runs on a misplayed chopper by Nathaniel Lowe. After a brief no‑hit bid was broken by Kyle Teel’s leadoff single, the White Sox capitalized on walks and timely hitting to overcome the Guardians’ early lead.
