Late-inning rally against Seattle Mariners marks pivotal shift in standings

The Chicago White Sox have extended their winning streak to three consecutive games, securing a 2-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners in Seattle. The win marks the team’s third straight comeback victory, a development that has shifted their standing back to two games above .500 in the league standings.

Trailing 1-0 for the majority of the contest, the White Sox mounted a late-inning rally to overturn the deficit. The game remained tight through the early and middle frames, with both starting pitchers displaying strong command before the turning point in the later innings.
