Cleveland Guardians rally to defeat White Sox amid tight AL Central race

The Chicago White Sox suffered a 7-6 loss to the Cleveland Guardians on September 15, 2026. The defeat tightens the American League Central race, with the White Sox now just half a game ahead of the Guardians. Brayan Rocchio's two-out RBI double in the ninth inning secured the Guardians a dramatic comeback victory. Chicago had earlier clinched the season-series tiebreaker against Cleveland, which may prove crucial if the teams end the season tied. The two teams will meet again on September 16 for the third game of their series, with significant playoff implications at stake for both.
