Andrew Benintendi delivered two hits and drove in a run as the White Sox turned a tight game into a 6-4 win over the Dodgers on June 14, 2026. His RBI double in the sixth helped start the surge that changed everything.
The White Sox were down 1-0 and had only one hit before they came alive with six straight hits in the sixth inning, a burst that ended with six runs and three homers from Colson Montgomery, Sam Antonacci and Chase Meidroth. Benintendi’s double brought in Miguel Vargas, and the inning gave Chicago control of a game it had been losing by a run only moments earlier.
The result mattered well beyond one comeback. It gave the White Sox their eighth straight series win at home, and it was their first series victory over the Dodgers since 2014. Chicago also moved back into a first-place tie with Cleveland in the AL Central after entering the day at 38-32 and leaving it at 39-33.
That backdrop made the late power from Los Angeles even less decisive than it might have seemed. Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts each hit solo homers, and Emmet Sheehan limited the damage for five-plus innings, but Chicago answered with the kind of inning that can erase clean pitching in a hurry. Erick Fedde covered 2 2/3 scoreless innings for the win, and Seranthony Dominguez finished it for his 12th save.
The White Sox now head to New York to face the Yankees on Tuesday, with Davis Martin scheduled to start. For Benintendi, the line was simple and effective: two hits, one RBI double, and a hand in the inning that pushed Chicago back to the top of the AL Central.
