Summary
Eight runs in the seventh turned a 4-1 game into a blowout, with Tristan Peters opening the inning with a two-run homer and later diving into third to complete the White Sox’s first cycle since 2017.
Peters finished 4-for-5 from the No. 9 spot as Chicago piled up 14 runs and 11 extra-base hits one game after scoring only two runs in a three-game sweep by Boston.
Sean Burke gave the outburst room to matter, retiring his first 13 hitters and allowing one run on four hits over seven innings with nine strikeouts and 70 strikes in 98 pitches.
Andrew Benintendi, Miguel Vargas and the rest of the lineup fueled the surge, while the White Sox added three double plays and welcomed back Munetaka Murakami, who went 1-for-5 in his first game since May 29.
