The Sox were incensed after blowing a ninth-inning lead Sunday, but a rebuilding clubhouse is seeing signs of growth after the 5-4 loss.

The means included a ninth-inning rally keyed by the most cohesive string of at bats that the Rangers put together in the entire series. The Rangers, down 3-2 in the top of the ninth vs. Chicago closer Jordan Leasure, came from behind and scored three runs to take the lead late.

Staring down the ignominy of a potential sweep at the hands of the Chicago White Sox, the Texas Rangers rallied to salvage a win in their road trip finale.

A quick game would help avoid the expected rain, and that could be possible with two pitchers taking the mound amid strong seasons. Rookie right-hander Shane Smith has been the White Sox best pitcher this season, posting a 2.36 ERA through the first 10 starts of his MLB career after being the No. 1 pick in December's Rule 5 Draft.

Juan Soto’s sacrifice fly tied the game in the eighth and Francisco Lindor’s walk-off sacrifice fly won it in the ninth.

The Chicago White Sox surrendered three runs in the ninth inning and fell short in the bid for their first sweep of the season.

It was a pretty good weekend for the White Sox. Actually, it was darn near great until Sunday, when the Rangers rallied for three in the ninth off Jordan Leasure, erasing a one-run deficit and then hanging on for a 5-4 victory at Rate Field.

Cannon missed his scheduled start with back tightness, but the Sox scored six times in the sixth inning, thanks to ugly play by the Rangers.
