Meyerhoff Impresses in Kansas City Loss
The Chicago White Sox had to overcome a big game from Kansas City catcher Mike Meyerhoff to leave U.S. Cellular Field with a victory. And they did, winning 7-4. Meyerhoff was 3-3 with 2 home runs, a walk, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Ricky Salas got credit for the win, improving to 10-5. He allowed 4 runs on 11 hits in 7.2 innings. Zach Ault earned his 26th save in 27 chances.

The Royals had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the White Sox going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the former first round draft pick Jack Christie came to the plate. Christie hit a run-scoring double on a full count fastball from Kansas City hurler Jimmy Silveira IV. It was Christie's 21st double of the year.

"We're in a marathon, not a sprint," Christie said in postgame remarks. "Soon enough, the finish line will be in sight."

The White Sox have an impressive 79-38 record.
