Luis Roberts contributed a pair of home runs for the White Sox de Chicago They achieved their 90th win of the season beating the Cincinnati Red 7-1 at Guaranteed Rate Field in the 2021 Major League Baseball season finale.
It took 13 years to see the Chicago White Sox win the American League Central Division title. Marks, records, victories in extremis, a historic match in the ‘Field of Dream’, injuries of almost all regular players. A waiting date on the trade deadline. The White Sox had a lot of emotions, but the goal for the start of the season has been achieved.
With the goal of tuning the engines, the White Sox have made it home, with almost the regular squad playing in the first set of play-offs against the Houston Astros. As usual, Luis Roberts opened the scoring at the end of the first with his first home run (11) of the match.

In the fourth, another solo circuit, this time the No. 10 of Gavin Sheets also between the center-right. This home run would serve to bring the lead to 3-0, and would incidentally be a historic mark for the rookie.

Such success served to swell the roster of “white-legged” players who, in the first 50 MLB games of his career, hit at least 10 home runs in his rookie season, a list led by the phenomenal José Abreu with 17.
Tonight is Gavin Sheets’ 50th MLB game.
Most HR in MLB’s First 50 Games, #WhiteSox History
17 Jose Abreu
16 Zeke Bonura
12 Eloy Jimenez
11 Luis Robert
10 Gavin sheets

Reynaldo López’s dominance spanned six innings granting just two hits, with one run earned by Eugenio Suárez on the roof of the fifth inning, offering four chocolates without giving out a free transit passport and 81 locations for the plate.
There would be room for another Gavin Sheets RBI with a single and the night’s second homerun, his 12th of the season and his second multi-homer game. Luis Roberts has compiled for a .367 / .403 / .645 offensive line since his return, with 12 homers, 35 RBIs in 39 games.

Great news for Tony La Russa who sees how his players alternate the responsibility of pulling the car. It looks solid and compact, but the main thing is the family feeling the team has in every game.
