White Sox Ride Late Surge to 9-5 Win Over Tigers in Detroit

The White Sox came into Comerica Park and did what they do best lately—found a way to outscore their problems. Chicago took down Detroit 9-5 in a game that probably looked closer on the scoreboard than it felt for anyone watching the Tigers bullpen implode.

Chicago's offense woke up when it mattered most, piling on runs in the middle and late innings to turn what could've been a competitive AL Central scrap into a comfortable victory. The White Sox put up crooked numbers when Detroit's pitching staff ran out of answers, and frankly, the Tigers never recovered once Chicago got rolling.

Detroit managed five runs, which isn't nothing, but their pitching couldn't keep pace. When you're giving up nine to a White Sox lineup that's been inconsistent all season, you've got deeper issues than one bad night. The Tigers showed some fight offensively but couldn't string together enough stops to make this interesting down the stretch.

DarkHorse didn't publish a pick here, which in hindsight probably saved some Stable members a headache trying to figure out which version of these teams would show up. Both squads are fighting their own demons this season, and this one went to whoever wanted it more in the sixth inning onward. Chicago wanted it more.
