Angels hitters struggle against Aaron Civale and White Sox in shutout loss
Aaron Civale pitched one-hit ball into the seventh inning, and the Chicago White Sox beat the Angels 1-0 on Saturday night to surpass their win total from last season. Chicago improved to 42-69 with its 10th win in 14 games since the All-Star break. It finished with a 41-121 record in 2024, breaking the modern major league record for most losses in a season. The White Sox scored their only run on Kyle Teel's RBI single in the second against Kyle Hendricks (6-8). Teel drove in Luis Robert Jr., who reached on a leadoff single. Civale (3-6) struck out eight in 6⅓ innings. He is 2-0 in his last three starts, allowing an unearned run and seven hits in 17⅓ innings. The Angels (53-58) got their only hit when Zach Neto beat out a slow roller down the third base line leading off the fourth. It was the team's third consecutive loss. Brandon Eisert retired each of his five batters, and Jordan Leasure finished the one-hitter for his third save in seven opportunities. Brooks Baldwin had two of Chicago's six hits. The White Sox (42-69) played without infielder Miguel Vargas, who was scratched because of a left oblique strain. Angels star Mike Trout missed a second straight game because of illness. Key moment: Nolan Schanuel walked after Neto's hit. But Civale retired the next three batters. Key stat: Chicago began the day with 27 home runs and 90 runs scored since the All-Star break — tops in the majors. Up next: Right-hander Sean Burke (4-8, 4.17 ERA) starts on Sunday for the White Sox, and right-hander Jack Kochanowicz (3-9, 5.75 ERA) goes for the Angels.

Aaron Civale pitches Chicago White Sox to 1-0 win after Miguel Vargas is scratched with oblique strain
ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Chicago White Sox scratched infielder Miguel Vargas from the starting lineup moments before Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels because of a left oblique strain. The Sox said Vargas was being further evaluated. The team produced just enough offense in his absence and received an outstanding pitching performance from Aaron Civale for a 1-0 victory in front of 39,161 at Angel Stadium. Civale, Brandon Eisert and Jordan Leasure combined on a one-hitter as the Sox won their 42nd game, surpassing last year's victory total. They earned the win while missing a key member of their offense. Vargas was originally slated to bat fourth and play first base Saturday. Center fielder Luis Robert Jr. moved from the sixth spot to hit fourth. He led off the second with a single, stole second, advanced to third on a fly ball to center and scored on a single by Kyle Teel to give the Sox a 1-0 lead. That would be the game's only run. Now the Sox will await word on Vargas, who is slashing .229/.305/.402 with 13 home runs and 44 RBIs in 106 games. The third baseman/first baseman is hitting .296 with three home runs and nine RBIs in 13 games since the All-Star break. The Sox shuffled most of their infield after Vargas was scratched. Lenyn Sosa moved from second base to first, Josh Rojas went from third to second and Brooks Baldwin shifted from left field to third. They aided Civale, who allowed one hit in 6 1/3 innings, struck out eight and walked two. The only hit was an infield single by Zach Neto leading off the fourth. Brandon Eisert pitched 1 2/3 hitless innings and Leasure pitched a perfect ninth. The Sox (42-69) go for the three-game sweep Sunday.
