Chicago Cubs Sweep White Sox, Take All-Time Crosstown Classic Lead

The Chicago Cubs completed a sweep of the White Sox in the 2025 Crosstown Classic with a 6-2 victory, extending their winning streak in the series to a franchise-record seven games and tying the all-time Crosstown Classic record at 74-74. Pete Crow-Armstrong was a standout performer for the Cubs, tallying eight hits, eight RBIs, two triples, and a homer across the three-game series, proving to be a key offensive threat. The Cubs have capitalized on recent acquisitions like Kyle Tucker and the breakout season of Carson Kelly, but Crow-Armstrong has emerged as an exciting cornerstone. Meanwhile, the White Sox showed promise through youngsters Miguel Vargas and Chase Meidroth, who had solid offensive contributions, but the team struggled with mental errors and inconsistency. The Cubs hold a strong home record and tend to perform well when scoring five or more runs, while the White Sox face challenges, especially on the road. Sunday's game was critical, as the winner would take the all-time lead in the Crosstown Classic series heading into the season's second half.
