After being outscored 32-15 by the New York Yankees while losing three of four during a May 12-15 home series, the Chicago White Sox reset and regrouped.

Chicago took two of three from the host Yankees this past weekend, capped by Sunday’s doubleheader sweep that saw White Sox pitching limit the Yankees to one run.

“It’s always good to take a series on the road,” Chicago left fielder Andrew Vaughn said, “especially here in the Bronx. … It just kind of shows that we have that in us, and we just got to keep going and keep building off of it.”

The White Sox will aim to do just that Tuesday as they begin a five-game homestand with a three-game set against the surging Boston Red Sox, who have won five in a row and nine of 12.

On Sunday, Boston’s Franchy Cordero punctuated a 6-1 homestand with a two-strike, game-ending grand slam to sink the Seattle Mariners 8-4 in 10 innings.

“I was going nuts,” teammate Christian Arroyo said. “Last year when Franchy got over here, he became really easy to root for. He’s a great teammate. He’s got a lot of tools, and you see it right there. He could leave the yard at any point. … That was a huge homestand for us.”

Highlights weren’t as easy to come by for Boston in its most recent encounter with the White Sox.

Chicago swept the host Red Sox in a three-game series from May 6-8 while allowing just five runs.

That was part of a five-game skid for the Red Sox at Fenway Park. The final loss of the Chicago series put Boston at nine games under .500, but the club since has rallied to get to three games under. After a trip to the Windy City, the Red Sox return home for seven games with struggling Baltimore and Cincinnati.

The White Sox went 5-3 on a trip to Kansas City and New York to climb above .500, and are set to start right-hander Dylan Cease (4-1, 3.09 ERA) against Boston righty Nick Pivetta (2-4, 4.22).

Cease, who took a no-decision on May 7 at Boston after pitching five innings of one-run, four-hit ball with eight strikeouts, has pitched to a 7.30 ERA in three career appearances against the Red Sox covering 12 1/3 innings.

Pivetta, who opposed Cease this month, also took a no-decision despite six innings of shutout ball with five hits and eight strikeouts. He is 0-0 with a 1.50 ERA in five career appearances against Chicago, including three starts.

Boston’s Trevor Story has five homers in the past four games.

For Chicago, Tim Anderson is batting .433 in his past seven games and helped fuel the club’s successful doubleheader in New York with a 5-for-9 day that included a three-run home run as part of a five-run, eighth-inning outburst in the nightcap.

Anderson leads the major leagues with 18 multi-hit games. That tally includes eight three-hit games, tied with Boston’s Xander Bogaerts for tops in MLB.

When the Citrus Series is rekindled Tuesday night in St. Petersburg, Fla., the Tampa Bay Rays will be looking to maintain a recent trend against the in-state rival Miami Marlins.

Behind impressive teams over the last three seasons, the Rays have built their overall advantage to 71-58 since starting interleague play against the then-Florida Marlins in 1998.

Including the final meeting against Miami in 2018, a 6-4 Rays win on July 22, Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash’s club has won 15 of 17 matchups against the Marlins, including three straight in the series.

After losing two of three games against the Orioles in Baltimore over the weekend, the Rays are closely monitoring the health of second-year shortstop Wander Franco.

The 21-year-old Franco isn’t having the kind of season he did in 2021 when he finished third in the American League Rookie of the Year voting — a campaign highlighted by Franco reaching base in 43 straight games, which tied a major league record for players under 21.

“Right now it’s the quad; it’s gone back and forth, and it’s kind of cycled through each leg,” Cash said. “Every part of both legs has bothered him.”

Neither Franco nor Yandy Diaz (left shoulder strain) appeared in Sunday’s lineup, and the team placed All-Star reliever Andrew Kittredge (back) on the injured list before the series finale.

Like his counterpart in Cash, Miami skipper Don Mattingly is having to battle team injuries, primarily around the horn on the infield.

Fighting a calf injury all month, shortstop Miguel Rojas left Saturday night’s game and didn’t play in Sunday’s 4-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves, the Marlins’ only win in the three-game series.

Leadoff hitter Jazz Chisholm Jr. was spiked Saturday night but played the next day. However, he was removed Sunday with left hamstring tightness.

Fellow infielders Joey Wendle (right hamstring strain) and Jon Berti (COVID-19) are also out. They will likely play in a rehab assignment and miss the two-game series.

While the Marlins sit four games under .500 in the National League East, their overall record would be just 13-21 if their 5-1 mark against the last-place Washington Nationals were omitted.

With all the team has endured, Mattingly was delighted to see starter Sandy Alcantara toss his fourth career complete game in Sunday’s win.

“We got what we needed today,” Mattingly said. “We were able to get some hits to move runners and move some guys across. It was good to get those.”

Pablo Lopez (4-1, 1.57 ERA) has been Miami’s ace through eight starts. He is 1-2 with a 3.27 ERA in four career starts against the Rays, who have hit only .188 with two homers in 22 innings against the Venezuelan right-hander.

Cash will send out Shane McClanahan (3-2, 2.33), who has made one career start against the Marlins. The left-hander earned the final victory of his 10-6 rookie campaign by allowing just one run — a solo homer by Rojas — in five innings in the Rays’ 7-3 home triumph on Sept. 25, 2021.

The St. Louis Cardinals made a flurry of moves Monday, including placing outfielder Dylan Carlson (hamstring) and left-hander Steven Matz (shoulder) on the injured list.

In corresponding moves, the Cardinals recalled right-hander Junior Fernandez, rookie left-hander Matthew Liberatore and outfielder Lars Nootbaar from Triple-A Memphis.

The team optioned right-hander Angel Rondon to Memphis after Sunday’s game.

Matz was put on the 15-day IL with left shoulder impingement. He left Sunday’s start after just four pitches. Matz, who turns 31 on Sunday, is 3-3 with a 6.03 ERA in nine starts this season.

Carlson, 23, was put on the 10-day IL — retroactive to Sunday — with a left hamstring strain. He left Saturday’s game after two innings. Carlson is batting .247 with two home runs and 15 runs scored in 39 games.

Liberatore, 22, made his major league debut on Saturday in a start at Pittsburgh, then was sent back to Memphis on Sunday. He allowed four runs in 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision.

Nootbaar, 24, appeared in seven games with the Cardinals to begin the season, batting .125 in 16 at-bats.

Fernandez, 25, has appeared in 16 games for Memphis this season, going 1-2 with a 6.35 ERA and a save. He’s appeared in 34 games for the Cardinals over the past three seasons with a 1-1 record and 6.62 ERA.

The next man to be the next man up for the New York Mets is David Peterson.

The third-year left-hander is slated to start in place of three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer on Monday night, when the Mets continue a road trip by visiting the San Francisco Giants in the opener of a three-game series.

Peterson (1-0, 1.89 ERA) is scheduled to make his first start for the Mets in almost three weeks when he opposes right-hander Alex Cobb (3-1, 5.61).

The Mets earned a series win Sunday when Taijuan Walker and a trio of relievers combined on a six-hitter in a 2-0 victory over the Colorado Rockies. The Giants absorbed the final loss in a three-game sweep by the visiting San Diego Padres by falling to their division rivals, 10-1.

Peterson, who is 2-1 with a 4.02 ERA in three starts for Triple-A Syracuse, will be recalled before Monday’s game to occupy the rotation spot held by Scherzer, who is out for six to eight weeks after suffering a left-oblique injury while pitching against the St. Louis Cardinals last Wednesday.

The absence of Scherzer means the Mets are without their top two starting pitchers. Jacob deGrom, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, has yet to pitch this season due to a shoulder injury.

But the Mets have adopted a football-esque philosophy to dealing with the injuries to Scherzer and deGrom as well as to catcher James McCann (fractured left wrist) and relievers Trevor May (triceps) and Sean Reid-Foley (Tommy John surgery). Starter Tylor Megill (biceps), who took deGrom’s spot in the season-opening rotation and started a combined no-hitter on April 29, also is out.

“I think we have a lot of guys in this room that have been in that spot and been counted on when somebody else has gone down,” Peterson told the New York Daily News.

Being swept for the first time this season in a three-game series and then receiving some more dispiriting injury news of their own left the Giants feeling a bit down Sunday. San Francisco has lost four straight and is 2-6 since May 14, a span in which it has suffered a pair of nine-run losses.

The Giants placed LaMonte Wade Jr. (left knee) and Brandon Belt (right knee) on the injured list over the weekend. San Francisco also put catcher Curt Casali on the seven-day concussion IL Saturday.

Belt, the Giants’ captain, said he had his knee drained twice in three days.

“It’s been tough to get in a rhythm,” he told reporters Sunday afternoon. “That’s why I want to get this taken care of.”

Peterson earned the win in his most recent appearance for the Mets on May 3, when he allowed four runs (three earned) over five innings as New York beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-4.

Cobb earned the win last Tuesday, giving up seven runs over 5 1/3 innings as the Giants outlasted the Colorado Rockies 10-7.

Peterson has never opposed the Giants. Cobb is 1-1 with a 4.76 ERA in three starts against the Mets.
