Guardians Extend Winning Streak to Four Over White Sox

The Cleveland Guardians extended their winning streak to five games with a 3-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox, highlighted by rookie C.J. Kayfus hitting his first major league home run and contributing a three-run double in the previous game. Carlos Santana played a crucial role in the Guardians' offense, driving in four runs on Friday and showing consistent run-producing ability with a recent batting average of .303. Pitchers Joey Cantillo and Tanner Bibee provided strong performances during the two games, with Cantillo allowing just one run over nearly six innings. The Guardians have been dominant against the White Sox, who have lost 12 of their last 13 meetings with Cleveland, and are currently on a four-game losing streak themselves. These wins contribute to Cleveland's momentum as they continue their playoff push, while Chicago struggles with a losing record and challenges in scoring with runners in position. Rookie Kayfus has been a standout early in his major league career, marking significant milestones and helping to solidify Cleveland’s recent success.
