Romo's Historic Homers Lead White Sox Over Angels

0:00It's April 29th, welcome to MLB News Today, powered by AI and ready for first pitch. Drew Romo made history last night, smashing the first two home runs of his career, one from each side of the plate as the Chicago White Sox topped the Los Angeles Angels 5-2. The 24-year-old switch-hitting catcher, fresh off a call left from AAA, put the socks ahead for good with a two-run blast lefty in the busty, fourth, then added a solo shot right in the sixth. Colson Montgomery got things started early with a homer and the second off Angel Starter, Jose Soriano, snapping his shut-out streak at 25 and two-thirds innings. Davis Martin outduled him on the mound, going five and two-thirds with just one run allowed, seven strikeouts and earned his fourth win. The Angels couldn't rally with Josh Lowe's homer and Joe Adele's RBI single their only damage. They've now dropped five straight and nine of their last. Ten, really hitting a rough patch.

1:01Sean Newcomb and Seranthini Dominguez locked it down late with Dominguez nailing his seventh save in a clean ninth. White Sox outfielder Everson Pereira sat out after tweaking his right shoulder on a swing he's day-to-day. Chicago eyes a sweep today with Eric Fed on the hill against Yusek Kukuchi, both sitting at zero and three, should be a pitcher's duel to cap the series.
