Meidroth and Benintendi have a pair of RBI singles apiece as White Sox beat Rangers 4-2

The Chicago White Sox picked up a 4-2 victory over the Texas Rangers on Wednesday, getting strong contributions from Chase Meidroth and Andrew Benintendi, who each drove in a pair of runs via RBI singles. Meidroth was the offensive standout, going a perfect 4-for-4 on the night, while Anthony Kay delivered five serviceable innings to earn his first win in over a month on the mound.

For bettors, a White Sox win likely paid off nicely given the team's struggles this season typically push them toward underdog pricing in most matchups. Texas, meanwhile, covers the other side of that equation as a club that carries higher expectations, meaning Rangers backers on the run line would have been left frustrated. Pitching performances like Kay's, where a starter goes five and gets the job done without disaster, are exactly the kind of outings that can quietly shift a team's future rotation pricing heading into the next series.
