Valvis Dominant in White Sox Victory
The Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Royals, 1-0, at Kauffman Stadium. Starting pitcher Xenophon Valvis was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Zach Ault earned save number 39 this season. The first-place White Sox have their sights set on making a deep playoff run.

Valvis scattered 4 hits over 8 innings for the White Sox. With the win, Valvis moves to 21-2 on the year with 184 strikeouts.

Valvis told the Chicago Citizen: "I think I thrive on conflict. It brings out my best."
