The Boston Red Sox defeated the Chicago White Sox 5–0 on July 8 at Rate Field, holding the hosts to just 4 hits and a .730 OPS while Boston's pitching staff surrendered only 4 hits and 0 earned runs across the game. The Red Sox struck for 5 runs on 10 hits and 4 RBIs, falling short of the 8.5 Vegas total despite the shutout, while the White Sox managed just 1 walk and struck out 6 times in an anemic offensive display. Boston's ERA of 3.70 proved decisive against Chicago's struggling lineup, which posted a .239 batting average and .319 on-base percentage. The White Sox defense contributed an error in the loss, compounding a night in which the home team generated zero runs despite 11 strikeouts by their pitching staff. Chicago's inability to generate runs—combined with Boston's stingy pitching and run prevention—underscores the White Sox's recent offensive struggles and suggests continued pressure on their rotation depth moving forward.
