Overview
- Shane Smith limited Tampa Bay to four hits over 5 2/3 scoreless frames with four strikeouts and one walk.
- Kyle Teel delivered a pinch-hit, two-run single in the sixth to extend his on-base streak to 20 games.
- Colson Montgomery staked Chicago to a first-inning lead with a two-run single after Chase Meidroth reached; Meidroth went 2-for-2 with two walks.
- Chicago has won nine of its last 11 and sits at .500 in the second half, with Tyler Gilbert ending the sixth and Jordan Leasure closing.
- Tampa Bay converted only one run despite Chandler Simpson’s three hits and 40th steal, and the Sox said Grant Taylor is day to day with a right groin strain.
