Key Factors to Consider
- The White Sox have shown resilience with a recent win at Coors Field, led by effective starting pitching and a capable offense producing clutch runs.

- No significant injury updates are currently reported for either team that would materially affect the starting lineup or pitching staff for this game.
- Coors Field is known for its high altitude, leading to increased offense and higher scoring games. Weather conditions are expected to be typical for early July in Denver, with no extreme factors impacting play. The stadium environment favors hitters but also places strain on pitchers.
