Bobby Witt Jr., the major league batting leader, raised his average to.349 and extended his hitting streak to 13 games with two infield singles. The all-star shortstop stole his 24th base, scored three runs, and walked twice.

With two doubles and two hits overall, Andrew Benintendi drove in two runs for the major league-worst White Sox, whose losing streak is the longest since Arizona lost 17 straight games in 2021.

Chicago (27-84) is headed for a worse finish than the 1962 New York Mets, whose 40-120 record in their first season is the lowest in baseball’s modern era (since 1900). Chicago is 57 games below 500 for the first time.
