NY Post: Tylor Megill rebounds to back Mets to win over lowly White Sox. "Simply, Megill got his act together against a White Sox team that has a chance to be MLB’s worst ever and gave the Mets a chance to win. Megill pitched into the sixth inning and the Mets won 5-1 at Guaranteed Rate Field for their fifth victory in eight games on this three-city road trip."
Tim Healey Newsday: J.D. Martinez's blast, Tylor Megill's return push Mets past White Sox. "The Mets (71-64) and White Sox (31-105) were tied with two outs in the top of the third when the visitors landed a quick-strike rally against righthander Jonathan Cannon: Pete Alonso walk, Jesse Winker RBI double, Martinez two-run home run."
Brian Joura Mets360: "It wasn’t necessarily a pretty win but it was a win nonetheless, a 5-1 triumph over the White Sox Friday night in Chicago in the opener of a three-game series."

- Mets holding out hope Dedniel Nunez can pitch again this season "Initially, the expectation was Nunez would receive an MRI exam on his forearm, but manager Carlos Mendoza said Friday, before his team’s 5-1 win over the White Sox, there was still discussion whether that step would be needed."
