White Sox beat Royals 4-1 with a great performance by Adrian Houser and key home runs

Chicago, USA – The Chicago White Sox defeated the Kansas City Royals with a score of 4-1, in a game where the dominant pitching of Adrian Houser and the long hits of Tim Elko and Chase Meidroth stood out.

From the start of the game, the Kansas City visitors took the lead in the second inning thanks to a solo home run by Vinnie Pasquantino, who extended his on-base streak to 22 consecutive games. However, the White Sox reacted strongly at the bottom of that same inning.

Rookie Tim Elko hit a two-run homer that turned the score 2-1 in favor of Chicago. One inning later, Chase Meidroth extended the lead with another solo home run, adding his second home run of the season and leaving the score 3-1.

In the eighth inning, the White Sox sealed the victory with an additional run after a sacrifice fly by Edgar Quero and a defensive error by the Royals that allowed one more, completing the definitive 4-1.

Starting pitcher Adrian Houser worked six solid innings, allowing only one run and striking out six batters, solidifying himself as a reliable piece since joining the team. The bullpen also shone with relief appearances from Jordan Leasure, Cam Booser, Steven Wilson, and Dan Altavilla, who earned his second save of the season.

With this triumph, the White Sox improve their record and add their third victory in the last four games, showing signs of recovery after a complicated start to the season.
