The White Sox picked up their fourth consecutive win on Tuesday in the Big Apple over the Yankees, and for the second straight game, it ended with a special moment for Liam Hendriks.
Just two days after Jake Burger walked off the Detroit Tigers with a grand slam to give Hendriks his first win since returning from chemotherapy, Hendriks worked around giving up a solo shot in the ninth inning to lock down a 3-2 victory in New York.
The win improves the South Siders' record to 27-35, leaving them just 4.5 games out of first place in a wildly underperforming AL Central.
The moment is a triumphant return to the save column for the 34-year-old Hendriks, who announced that he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma in January.
