The Chicago White Sox outlasted the New York Yankees 6-5 in 12 innings on Wednesday night, with Edgar Quero delivering the game-winning RBI single in the bottom of the 12th. AP reported the walk-off hit capped a dramatic comeback for Chicago.
The win moves the White Sox to 1.5 games ahead of Cleveland in the AL Central standings, according to Winnipeg Free Press. The Yankees, meanwhile, dropped a tough extra-innings decision on the road.
Quero's Single Seals It in the 12th
Edgar Quero stepped up in the 12th inning with a chance to end it. He delivered a clean RBI single to score the winning run and give Chicago the 6-5 victory. It was a clutch moment for the young catcher in a tight, back-and-forth game, WWLTV reported.
The game went to extra innings tied at 5. Both bullpens held firm before Quero broke through. The single gave the White Sox their walk-off win in front of the home crowd, according to Herald Bulletin.
White Sox Hold Their Lead in AL Central
The victory keeps Chicago in control of the AL Central division race. At 1.5 games ahead of Cleveland, every win matters. The White Sox cannot afford to slip against tough opponents like the Yankees, according to Star Democrat.
The Yankees entered Wednesday looking to pick up a road win. Instead, they fell in extra innings and left Chicago empty-handed. The loss adds pressure to New York as they chase their own postseason goals, Leader Telegram noted.
Yankees Fall Short Despite Late Push
New York kept the game close and pushed it to extra innings. They tied the game at 5 before the 12th, showing resilience late. But they could not get the key out when it mattered most, according to Daily Gazette.
The Yankees have now lost a close extra-innings road game to a division rival. That kind of loss can sting in a tight pennant race. Chicago, on the other hand, gets a big confidence boost heading into the rest of the season, Messenger-Inquirer reported.
Quero Emerges as a Clutch Player to Watch
Edgar Quero is making a name for himself in big moments. His 12th-inning single was not just a hit — it was a game-winner against one of baseball's marquee franchises. The White Sox will lean on him as the season heats up, according to KTVB.
Young players who come through in extra-inning situations tend to build confidence fast. Quero's performance Wednesday gives Chicago's lineup another weapon late in games. It is exactly the kind of moment a team building toward October needs.
