Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:26:52 GMT

CHICAGO (AP) — Zach Remillard singled in Elvis Andrus with the go-ahead run on a play that was overturned by video review, and the Chicago White Sox rallied with three runs in the eighth inning to beat the Texas Rangers 7-6 on Tuesday night.Remillard has had a busy first week in the majors. In his debut Saturday at Seattle, the 29-year-old infielder knocked in the tying run in the ninth and the winner in the 11th.This time, the finish was more controversial.Andrus tied it with a single off Grant Anderson (1-1) that plated two runs with two outs.

Bochy was booted for the 80th time in his career.“For that call to be made, I’m dumbfounded,” Bochy said. “It’s absolutely one of the worst calls I’...
