Chicago White Sox beat New York Yankees 5-1 as Benintendi hits grand slam

The Chicago White Sox defeated the New York Yankees 5-1 at Yankee Stadium, ending a nine‑game losing streak at the venue. Rookie pitcher Sean Burke worked 7.1 scoreless innings, while the White Sox broke a 1‑1 tie in the eighth when pinch‑hitter Andrew Benintendi launched a grand slam off Camilo Doval on the first pitch. The blast turned a tied game into a decisive lead.

Yankees starter Ryan Weathers allowed one run over 6⅓ innings, but the Yankees offense managed only a solo homer by Ryan McMahon. The game also saw Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. exit in the fourth inning after a foul ball struck him in the groin area, prompting manager Aaron Boone to note the injury was being evaluated.

The day before, White Sox center fielder Everson Pereira was placed on a seven‑day injured list with a concussion after crashing into the left‑center field fence while making a leaping catch. Junior Pérez was recalled from Triple‑A to replace Pereira in the outfield.
