The Sox' productive sixth clinched a 10-4 victory against the Pirates for a series win — their first series win after the All-Star break last season came in September. The Sox (34-65) recorded 13 hits on Saturday and have scored 20 runs over a two-game span.

Luis Robert Jr. homered and drove in two runs, Michael A. Taylor added a bases-clearing double and the Chicago White Sox breezed past the reeling Pittsburgh Pirates 10-1.

From the red carpet to the Home Run Derby to the game itself, Chicago White Sox starter Shane Smith soaked up every minute of his All-Star experience.

The Pirates have made their first trade prior to the trade deadline, reportedly sending infielder Adam Frazier to the Kansas City Royals in exchange for minor league infielder Cam Devanney, according to MLB.com's Alex Stumpf.
