Here are four takeaways from the weekend series at Guaranteed Rate Field in which the Chicago White Sox won two of three against the Boston Red Sox.
They built a four-run lead Friday and held on for a 4-3 victory. They fell behind by five Saturday, took the lead and then lost 9-8 in 10 innings. And they got a walk-off home run by Leury García on Sunday for a 2-1 victory.
“It was a really outstanding experience to play against the Red Sox because they’re really fighting hard for a (playoff) spot and we wanted to match that kind of intensity,” White Sox manager Tony La Russa said Sunday.
