Castillo Struggles as Astros Take Series from White Sox

The Houston Astros clinched their series against the Chicago White Sox with a 6-2 victory on Thursday, further highlighting the White Sox's ongoing pitching woes. Luis Castillo, acquired by the White Sox just over a month ago, had another difficult outing, surrendering six runs in four innings. This performance continues a troubling trend for Castillo, who has allowed at least four runs in three of his five starts in August.

The Astros' early offensive surge proved insurmountable for the White Sox, who were unable to mount a significant comeback. The loss not only ended the series in Houston's favor but also underscored the challenges the White Sox face in establishing consistent pitching, particularly with key acquisitions like Castillo struggling to find their footing.
