On the pitching side, Tommy Henry has demonstrated exceptional skill by maintaining a 0.00 ERA across multiple appearances, highlighting his potential to stifle the White Sox's hitters. His pitching stats include a striking 27 strikeouts per nine innings in one game, underscoring his dominance on the mound.


The White Sox counter with their own set of talented players. Eloy Jiménez, an outfielder with a knack for powerful hits, has been notable with a batting average of .500 and an OPS of 2.667 in one game, proving his capability to change the game's dynamics with his at-bats.


Dylan Cease, a starting pitcher for the White Sox, also poses a significant threat with an ERA of 2.25 and 13.5 strikeouts per nine innings in one performance. His ability to limit opponents' scoring opportunities will be crucial against a Diamondbacks lineup that includes hitters like Marte.


Both teams have players capable of making impactful plays, but Marte's recent performances suggest he could be pivotal in leading the Diamondbacks to victory or minimizing damage if the tide turns against them.
