Final Thoughts:
A lot of small ball played by the White Sox. Meanwhile the Red Sox are looking like a shell of themselves without Mookie Betts. The White Sox take 2 out of 3, from the Red Sox. The White Sox will head back to Chicago, to play the Cleveland Indians, the next 4 games. The Red Sox will go to Baltimore and play the Orioles, in a 3-game series.
