Chicago White Sox 4 – 2 Texas Rangers

MLB · July 23, 2026 · Final
🎧 Post-Game Report (audio)

Post-Game Recap

The Chicago White Sox took down the Texas Rangers tonight, four to two, and this one had a real rhythm to it once Chicago found their footing.

The White Sox struck first in the second inning when Meidroth singled to left and brought home B. Montgomery for the early lead. Texas answered almost immediately — Cauley went the other way, a three-hundred-eighty-two-foot shot to right that tied it at one. But that momentum swing was short-lived.

The fourth inning is where Chicago broke this game open. Meidroth came through again, this time singling to right to score Murakami and put the White Sox back in front. Then Benintendi added to it, a single to center that made it three to one. Texas clawed one back on a Díaz groundout that scored Nimmo, but that was as close as they'd get.

Benintendi put the finishing touch on it in the sixth — another single to center, another run for B. Montgomery, and the White Sox had their cushion at four to two. That was the ballgame.

Andrew Benintendi was the engine tonight, driving in two runs across two separate at-bats when the game needed it most, and Meidroth was a consistent thorn in Texas's side all evening with two RBI singles of his own.

Chicago controlled the game after that fourth inning and never looked back. That's your post-game report. Sports Desk, signing off.
