Rookie Troy Melton allows 1 hit as Tigers beat White Sox 1-0 to win series

The Detroit Tigers defeated the Chicago White Sox 1-0 in a series-clinching game on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, in Chicago.
The win followed strong pitching from rookie Troy Melton, who was unexpectedly named the starter the night before after recently moving between rotation and bullpen.
Melton threw five scoreless innings with 56 pitches, allowed one hit, and struck out six batters while Tigers relievers held the White Sox hitless to secure the shutout.
Detroit scored the only run in the sixth inning on Wenceel Prez's bases-loaded sacrifice fly off Martín Pérez, who had recently returned from injury and recorded 3⅓ innings.
The victory improved the Tigers' record to 70-52, widened their lead in the AL Central, and set the stage for a four-game matchup in Minnesota starting Thursday.
