White Sox's Offensive Onslaught Overwhelms Cubs at Rate Field

First Inning

The White Sox set the tone early in the first inning by scoring three runs on five hits.

Austin Slater played a crucial role during this period with his solid hitting and fielding skills that kept errors at bay for his team.
