Game Preview

Yankees manager Aaron Boone dismissed Monday’s 12-2 rout by the Chicago White Sox as just another setback in their pursuit of the division title. Boone emphasized the importance of moving forward, noting that each loss represents a missed opportunity, and the team must quickly shift focus to the next game.

The Yankees, who have dropped four of their last six games, will look to rebound as the series against the White Sox continues on Tuesday night. Their recent struggles have pushed them a half-game behind the Baltimore Orioles in the American League East and in the race for the league’s best record.

In Monday’s game, the Yankees struggled mightily in clutch situations, leaving 16 runners on base and managing just 2-for-18 with runners in scoring position. The White Sox out-hit the Yankees 18-9, setting a season high for hits and taking their largest lead of the year.

Interim White Sox manager Grady Sizemore, who earned his first win since taking over after Pedro Grifol’s dismissal, praised his team’s effort, with Andrew Vaughn and Gavin Sheets leading the charge with four hits each. Sheets added three RBI doubles, while Korey Lee and Brooks Baldwin contributed home runs. Andrew Benintendi also had a strong game with two hits.

The Yankees faced additional challenges when Jazz Chisholm Jr. left the game after injuring his leg on a slide. He will undergo further testing to determine the extent of the injury.

For the White Sox, rookie right-hander Jonathan Cannon (2-5, 3.91 ERA) will look to secure the team’s first series win since late June. Cannon has been effective recently, allowing just two runs in his last 13 innings.

The Yankees will counter with Nestor Cortes (5-10, 4.42 ERA), who defeated the White Sox in their previous matchup on May 17. Despite Cortes’ strong track record against the White Sox, he has struggled recently, posting a 6.93 ERA in July and taking a loss in his last outing against the Los Angeles Angels.
