Miguel Vargas hit two home runs, measured at 392 feet and 397 feet, powering the Chicago White Sox to a win over the Detroit Tigers. One of Vargas's blasts was a two-run homer and another scored Munetaka Murakami, helping the White Sox build an 8-3 lead in the game. The scoreboard shows Chicago 9, Detroit 5 late in the contest. Teammates celebrated in the dugout after Vargas's second homer and the White Sox recorded their 63rd win of the season.

Detroit lost to the White Sox. Texas lost to the vagabond A’s. #Bluejays beat the Yankees and are now ONE GAME out of a playoff spot.

Hmm... but does this feel like a play-off team? Maybe if Vladdy hit a HR. Maybe if Varsho was in center.....oh.. Maybe if Gausman was starting......uhm.

For the first time since 2022 the White Sox final number of regular season losses will only have two digits in it

The 2026 Chicago White Sox are the third team in MLB history (after the 1954 Cardinals and 2003 Yankees) to have 3 players whose last name ends with an "i" each have 250+ plate appearances.

Jackson Jobe was in decent shape thru 3 innings in his 2nd start back from TJ surgery. Then White Sox were all over him in the 4th.

All three White Sox All-Stars homered tonight, which seems like a pretty good recipe for victory, even when they have to improvise on the pitching side. soxmachine.com/2026/08/whit...
