Astros score nine runs in sixth inning to defeat White Sox 9-5

The Houston Astros scored nine runs in a devastating sixth inning, leading to a 9-5 victory over the Chicago White Sox on July 24. The White Sox had built a 5-0 lead early but ceded control of the game when pitchers Davis Martin and Bryan Hudson struggled in the sixth. Martin allowed three hits and a hit batter in the inning before Hudson, who only recorded two outs, surrendered four earned runs. The White Sox have seen strong performances this season but were unable to recover from this one disastrous frame. The defeat comes amid a playoff push in the AL Central, where the Guardians also lost their game.
