The game saw the White Sox putting up a fight, managing to secure nine hits throughout the match but were hindered by one error.

On the pitching side, Jonathan Cannon delivered a solid start with an ERA of 1.5 over six innings pitched, demonstrating control and efficiency on the mound by maintaining a WHIP of 1.1667. However, Michael Kopech struggled in relief as evidenced by his ERA skyrocketing to 54.0 after conceding six earned runs which ultimately proved costly for the White Sox.


The Marlins capitalized on their opportunities late in the game with four runs in the ninth inning sealing their victory over Chicago. JT Chargois from Miami emerged victorious on the mound while Michael Kopech bore loss for Chicago.
