Chicago Makes It 7 Straight with 11-9 Win
The Chicago White Sox handed the Kansas City Royals a loss at Kauffman Stadium. The final score was 11-9. Devin Maurer made the highlight reel for Chicago. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 4 runs and drove in 1. He also added 2 bases on balls. Chicago, now 23-7, is setting the league on fire so far.

Chicago used a timely hit from Ethan Ellison to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the White Sox ahead, 10-9. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"That's what this team is about," said Maurer, "picking each other up."
