The Chicago White Sox snapped a 21-game losing streak on Tuesday, beating the Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum, 5-1. It was just the third time the White Sox have scored five or more runs since the All-Star break and the first time their defense held a team to one run since July 10th, which coincidentally was the last time they won a game.
While it was nice for the White Sox to experience victory again, it was mostly kind of awkward. The team's announcer was criticized for his call of the final out and let's not forget about the A's. Oakland has the second-worst record in the American League and just over 5,000 people showed up to watch the home side lose to a historically bad team.
