Another late-inning attack helps Astros top White Sox 6-4

On Friday night, the Astros scored all their six runs starting in the sixth inning. On Saturday afternoon, they made their biggest offensive efforts in their final two hitting chances to come back again and take the third game of the series against the White Sox, with a 6-4 victory.

This time, the Astros cracked the scoreboard first, after red-hot Kyle Tucker plated Jeremy Peña to get ahead 1-0. Immediately after Tucker’s single, Chas McCormick followed with a single of his own to drive in Yordan Álvarez with the 2-0.

The White Sox didn’t take long to react as Yoán Moncada put Chicago on the board with an opposite-field solo shot in the second inning to make it 2-1.
