Guardians Blank White Sox


In a game heard on WHOW, José Ramírez hit a two-run homer - his 100th at Progressive Field - and the Cleveland Guardians followed the total solar eclipse by winning first-year manager Stephen Vogt's home debut, 4-0 over the Chicago White Sox on Monday.

Triston McKenzie (1-1) pitched 5 2/3 innings for Cleveland, off to a surprising start and its best since 2011. The right-hander combined with four relievers on a four-hitter, with Clase working the ninth.

The White Sox dropped their fifth straight to fall to 1-9. They were shut for the fourth time and have scored an MLB-low 16 runs, the club's fewest in 10 games since 1968.

They went 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position, leaving them with a .091 average in those situations.

Chicago wasn't much better in the field, committing three errors, two by third baseman Yoán Moncada.

White Sox RHP Michael Soroka (0-1, 4.91 ERA) starts the second game of the series against Cleveland LHP Logan Allen (2-0, 2.31 ERA). Hear this evening's action on WHOW.
