José Ramírez hits go-ahead home run for Guardians in ALDS Game 4
José Ramírez put the Cleveland Guardians in the lead with a two-run home run in the fifth inning of Game 4 of the ALDS against the Chicago White Sox.
In Game 4 of the American League Division Series, the Cleveland Guardians secured a crucial lead against the Chicago White Sox at Progressive Field. José Ramírez, playing as the third baseman, delivered a powerful two-run home run to make the score 3-2 for the Guardians. The ball sailed into the bullpen in right field after being struck off a fastball from White Sox pitcher Jordan Hicks, who was pitching with an 0-1 count on Ramirez. Steven Kwan added to the Guardians' lead by scoring on a single.
Ramírez was the first batter that Hicks faced after replacing Erick Fedde. Prior to this inning, Patrick Bailey had put the Guardians ahead with a solo home run. This marked the first home run the Guardians had hit in the first three games of the series. With this victory, the White Sox would advance to the American League Championship Series, provided they emerged victorious in this game.
