Kirby Good, But Not Good Enough, in 7-6 Loss
Both teams had their chances, but the Chicago White Sox eventually prevailed.

J.J. Kirby did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Cleveland Guardians from being beaten, 7-6, to the Chicago White Sox at Progressive Field. Kirby was 3-4 with 2 home runs, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. The White Sox, at 97-44, have a comfortable 26½-game lead in their division.

Ryan Builes provided a timely hit. The Chicago first baseman delivered a 2-run triple in the top of the seventh inning to put the White Sox on top, 6-5. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

"This team keeps finding a way to win," said Chicago manager Bryce Reigns.
