White Sox Snap Losing Streak, Division Lead Back to Three

The White Sox lost five straight (Aug 6-8) but won the finale of the Guardians series on Aug 9, 6-3, to snap the skid. The win was the 60th of the season, matching last year's total. The division lead is now three games. Manager Venable's mound visit blunders forced Schultz out early in the two losses. Momentum has returned after a strong deadline.
