No-quit White Sox walk it off again, Jake Rogers delivers 10th walk-off win
Share your love
The 2026 Chicago White Sox have proven to be one of the most resilient teams in baseball. Not only have they far exceeded expectations in the win column, but they have built a comfortable lead in the American League Central and would enter the postseason as the No. 2 seed if the season ended today, earning a first-round bye into the Division Series.
More importantly, this is a team that simply refuses to quit. Friday night’s matchup against the New York Mets was a perfect example. After falling behind by four runs, the White Sox rallied with back-to-back-to-back home runs before Jake Rogers delivered the walk-off winning long ball, capping their largest comeback of the season with an exclamation point.

Chicago White Sox come from behind and walk-off the New York Mets
Despite trailing 4-0 entering the sixth inning, the White Sox refused to go quietly. Miguel Vargas, Randal Grichuk, and Colson Montgomery launched three consecutive home runs to tie the game, with Vargas’s being a two-run blast. Then, in the ninth, recently acquired catcher Jake Rogers, playing for his fourth team in less than a month, delivered the game-winning home run to complete the 6-4 comeback victory.
The victory gave the White Sox their 33rd comeback win of the season, tied for the sixth-most in Major League Baseball. It also marked their 10th walk-off victory, with eight different players contributing to the team’s late-game magic.
Braden Montgomery, Miguel Vargas, Edgar Quero, and Rogers have each delivered walk-off home runs, while Tristan Peters, Quero, Jacob Gonzalez, Sam Antonacci, and Colson Montgomery have all recorded walk-off hits. Peters also drew a walk-off walk in July, making him and Quero the only two White Sox players with multiple walk-off moments this season.
