Nick Cammett/Getty Images The Chicago White Sox (2-9) lost to the Cleveland Guardians (5-6) by a narrow 3-2 margin and have now dropped seven straight. It was a game filled with missed opportunities and, of course, the perfect dose of bad luck. Going 3-for-12 with RISP certainly doesn’t help, either. The South Siders jumped out to an early lead in the top of the first. With one out, Andrew Vaughn drew a walk and advanced to second on a fielding error by José Ramírez.
