Benintendi and Gavin Sheets will both take a seat against southpaw Carlos Rodon on Sunday. While they rest, the White Sox will deploy Corey Julks in left field and Zack Remillard at second base.

Iglesias is in the lineup while Francisco Lindor deals with a back injury. He got a clutch hit with a two-out RBI single in the eighth to tie the game. Iglesias is hitting .323 with three home runs and 24 RBI in 220 at-bats this year.

Irvin gave up four hits, walked one and struck out five. Irvin allowed a double to Tyron Taylor to start the eighth inning. Taylor scored to tie the game on a two-out RBI single by Jose Iglesias after Irvin was already out of the game. He pitched well enough to win, but the Nationals supported him with only one run. Irvin is 10-12 with a 4.07 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 150 strikeouts in 179 1/3 innings on the year. The 27-year-old right-hander is set to face the Cubs on the road this weekend.

Civale did allow seven hits, but the only run that came across came on solo Brandon Marsh homer in the fifth. The 29-year-old issued one walk and struck out six in a solid outing versus a tough Philadelphia lineup. Civale has not been great nor anything close with Milwaukee, but he’s done just enough to keep his spot in the rotation. He’ll take a 4.48 ERA into a start Saturday versus the Diamondbacks.

Suárez gave up a two-run double in the third, and another run in the fourth. He had some issues with free passes as he gave up three walks in the contest, and needed 104 pitches — 62 of those strikes — to get his 15 outs. It’s far from a disaster, but it’s back-to-back so-so starts from the 29-year-old southpaw. Suárez will still take a solid 3.13 ERA into his scheduled start against the Mets on Saturday.

Manaea gave up four hits, walked one and struck out six. The lone run off Manaea came on a Jose Tena RBI single in the fourth inning. He’s allowed three runs or less in 10 of his last 11 starts. Manaea has a 2.58 ERA and 80 strikeouts in 69 2/3 innings in that time. He’s 11-5 with a 3.26 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 177 strikeouts in 171 innings on the year. The 32-year-old left-hander is set to face the Phillies at home this weekend.

Paredes opened the scoring in the first with an RBI single, and closed it in the fourth with a run-scoring knock. The 25-year-old has driven in a solid 76 runs in 2024, and 10 of those have come in the month of September. He’s hit .302 in that month, but still hasn’t hit a homer since August 26.

Amaya had been in a 2-for-27 funk coming into this game, and he broke out in a big way. It’s somehow the second triple of the year from the not-so-speedy backstop, and he added a pair of run-scoring singles for good measure.
