Kyle Freeland threw 6 2/3 innings of two-run
ball for Colorado, while Hunter Goodman drove in a pair of runs
in the team's longest game since a 16-inning win over the Giants
in Sept. 24, 2019.
Garrett Crochet pitched seven innings of two-run ball for
Chicago, striking out 11 batters. His 141 strikeouts on the
season are the most in baseball. Andrew Vaughn went 2-for-4 with
three RBIs for the White Sox, which had their three-game winning
streak snapped. Michael Soroka (0-8) threw the final four
innings for Chicago, earning the loss after surrendering two
unearned runs.
Colorado cracked the run column first in the top of the second,
as back-to-back singles from McMahon and Elias Diaz put runners
on the corners before Crochet balked in the first run.
Toglia followed with a single. Two batters later, Goodman scored
Diaz on a sacrifice fly to give the Rockies a 2-0 advantage.
Vaughn led off the bottom of the fourth with a solo homer, his
10th of the year, to cut Chicago's deficit in half.
With Freeland still pitching in the bottom of the seventh, Corey
Julks and Lenyn Sosa led with consecutive singles, before Danny
Mendick advanced the runners with a sacrifice bunt. Two batters
later, Tommy Pham walked to load the bases. Freeland was then
replaced by Victor Vodnik, who issued a game-tying walk to
Vaughn.
In the 10th, Goodman drove in Hilliard for the go-ahead run on a
sacrifice fly. The White Sox then returned the favor in the
bottom of the 10th, with Vaughn scoring Lee on a sacrifice fly
to right field.
Neither team got a run across in the 11th or 12th innings. In
the 13th, Tovar's two-out broken bat single scored the go-ahead
run off Soroka, giving the Rockies a 4-3 lead. In the bottom of
the 13th, Luis Robert Jr. singled in Pham to tie the game off
reliever Jalen Beeks.
After Toglia's sacrifice fly, Beeks (5-4) threw a perfect bottom
of the 14th to finish the Colorado victory.
