The Chicago White Sox staved off history on Tuesday with a win over the Los Angeles Angels. The 3-2 victory kept them from passing the 1969 New York Mets on the list for most losses in a season since the start of the 1900s. With just five games remaining, the 1899 Cleveland Spiders' record 134 losses is safe, but that doesn't mean the White Sox are going out draped in glory.
During the top of the fifth inning Angels centerfielder Mickey Moniak popped the ball up in fair territory near the pitcher's mound. That's where White Sox pitcher Jonathan Cannon, catcher Chuckie Robinson, first baseman Gavin Sheets and third baseman Miguel Vargas converged.
