Jonathan Cannon of the Chicago White Sox has been scratched from his scheduled start due to lower back tightness, classified as day-to-day. He expressed optimism about making a return soon, noting that the discomfort was unexpected. Despite his absence, the White Sox leveraged a six-run sixth inning, characterized by critical mistakes from the Texas Rangers, to secure a 10-5 victory. Players like Andrew Benintendi and Lenyn Sosa stepped up, contributing crucial hits that propelled the Sox to a series win.

The White Sox's pitching, particularly Sean Burke's performance in a prior victory, has shown promise, but Cannon's health is a concern. He recorded a solid 3.76 ERA over ten outings this season, and the team is hopeful he can avoid the injured list. As the White Sox aim for a sweep in their upcoming match, maintaining key player health will be vital.
