In a shift of fortune, the Chicago White Sox shattered a series of disheartening trends to clinch a 4-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on the road. Given the team's track record of 0-38 when trailing after seven innings and what appeared to be yet another dismal performance at the Rogers Centre, the odds were against them. Nevertheless, in a display of sheer determination and a little luck, the White Sox forged a path to victory that stunned fans and critics alike.

Andrew Benintendi's eighth-inning encounter with Toronto's Jeff Hoffman, leading to a critical error, set the stage for Miguel Vargas's two-RBI double, marking a decisive turn in the game.
