What a series for the Chicago White Sox, as they swept the Pittsburgh Pirates this afternoon with a 7-1 win, their first series sweep of the season. Doing it on the road is impressive. Now, the Sox are the last team in baseball to secure a sweep, but let’s keep it positive after the offensive explosion we saw these last three games.

Miguel Vargas and Mike Tauchman hit back-to-back homers in a four-run first inning, and the Chicago White Sox cruised to a 7-2 victory over the struggling Pittsburgh Pirates for their first series sweep this season.

The Pirates were trounced for a third-straight game by the White Sox, falling 7-2 in the series finale at PNC Park on Sunday afternoon.
