In a tight game against the Astros, the White Sox lost 4-3, marking their 21st one-run game of the season. A notable moment came when third baseman Miguel Vargas nearly tied the game with a double that fell short. Although Vargas and catcher Edgar Quero had strong showings, combining for six of the White Sox's ten hits, the team struggled with capitalizing on scoring chances, finishing 2-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Manager Will Venable expressed disappointment not just in the loss, but in the missed opportunities as the team seeks to improve their performance in close matchups.
A good battle against a really good pitcher, Vargas put a good swing on it ... need a couple more push-ups on that one, said manager Will Venable.
Not a good day because we didn't win the ballgame. These days we've been playing really good so we're going to keep playing hard, said catcher Edgar Quero.
You're starting to feel our reaction to these are no longer, Way to go, we competed, it's we're upset that we didn't win the game, said manager Will Venable.
The Sox dropped Thursday's game 4-3 against the Astros, losing the series after striking out 16 times and going 2-for-8 with runners in scoring position.
