May 1, 2026; San Diego, California, USA; Chicago White Sox first baseman Munetaka Murakami (5), right is congratulated by center fielder Tristan Peters (29), left, and catcher Drew Romo (36) after hitting a three-run home run during the second inning against the San Diego Padres at Petco Park. Mandatory Credit: Denis Poroy-Imagn Images Munetaka Murakami blasted his league-leading 13th homer Friday night and rookie starter Noah Schultz allowed just two hits in six shutout innings as the visiting Chicago White Sox routed the San Diego Padres 8-2.
Murakami capped a six-run second inning outburst against German Marquez, ripping a hanging knuckle-curve an estimated 413 feet to right-center field with Tristan Peters and Drew Romo aboard.
That essentially decided the game as Schultz (2-1) shrugged off first-inning control issues over the next five innings. The 6-foot-10, 240-pound left-hander struck out two and threw 53 of his 87 pitches for strikes.
Marquez (3-2) saw his three-game winning streak snapped after permitting seven runs on five hits and five walks over five innings, striking out two. It was the third straight defeat for San Diego, all at home, where it won nine of 10 before Tuesday night’s 8-3 loss to the Chicago Cubs.
Schultz created trouble in the first when he issued walks to Fernando Tatis Jr., Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts to fill the bases with two outs. But Schultz escaped trouble via Ty France’s inning-ending grounder to second.
Marquez couldn’t hide from trouble in the second. Colson Montgomery walked and advanced to third on Chase Meidroth’s double. Sam Antonacci cashed in Montgomery with a single and Austin Hays’ fielder’s choice grounder plated Meidroth.
Walks to Peters and Romo preceded Andrew Benintendi’s sacrifice fly that scored Hays prior to Murakami’s blast.
Montgomery upped the lead to 7-0 in the fifth when he pulled a hanging changeup an estimated 385 feet to right-center, his ninth homer of the year. Peters capped the White Sox’s scoring in the eighth with a two-out RBI single that scored Antonacci.
The Padres managed to avert a shutout with a pair of two-out runs in their half of the eighth. Miguel Andujar chopped an infield single up the middle to score Bryce Johnson, followed by Machado’s single to left that plated Tatis.
Antonacci bagged two of Chicago’s eight hits, while Tatis collected three of San Diego’s six hits.

Former Formula One driver Alex Zanardi, who lost both legs in a racing crash and went on to win Paralympic gold medals, has died at the age of 59, his family said on Saturday.
Zanardi, from Bologna, made his F1 debut in 1991 and later achieved success in the CART series in the United States, winning back-to-back championships in 1997 and 1998.
His life took a dramatic turn in September 2001 when he was involved in a high-speed crash during a CART race in Germany that led to the amputation of both legs.
Zanardi refused to end his sporting career and instead turned to para-cycling, becoming one of Italy’s most successful Paralympic athletes.
He won four gold medals and two silver medals at the 2012 London and 2016 Rio Games.
“It is with deep sorrow that the family announces the passing of Alessandro Zanardi, which occurred suddenly yesterday evening, May 1,” his family said in a statement.
“Alex passed away peacefully, surrounded by the love of his family and friends.
“The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to all those who are showing their support at this time and asks that their grief and privacy be respected during this period of mourning.”
Zanardi also claimed multiple world championship titles in para-cycling and became a powerful advocate for athletes with disabilities.
His life took another blow in 2020 when he was seriously injured after being struck by a truck while competing in a charity para-cycling relay in Tuscany. He sustained serious head injuries and spent years undergoing treatment.

May 1, 2026; Houston, Texas, USA; Los Angeles Lakers forward Lebron James (23) reacts after a made basket against the Houston Rockets during the second quarter of game six of the first round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs at Toyota Center. Mandatory Credit: Erik Williams-Imagn Images LeBron James scored 18 of his 28 points in a runaway first half for the visiting Los Angeles Lakers, who cruised to a 98-78 victory over the Houston Rockets on Friday and claimed their Western Conference first-round playoff series in six games.
By virtue of the 4-2 series victory, the Lakers advance to the Western Conference semifinals and will travel to face the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder for Game 1 on Tuesday.
James added seven rebounds and eight assists to his ledger. Teammate Rui Hachimura put up 21 points, hitting 5 of 7 from the 3-point arc. Austin Reaves, who started for the first time in the series, added 15 points for the Lakers.
Undermined by turnovers throughout the series, the Lakers committed just 11 giveaways while limiting Houston to 35% shooting. The Lakers finished with a 19-8 edge in fastbreak points, made 12 of 28 3-point shots (42.9%) and produced a plus-9 rebounding margin.
Alperen Sengun paired 17 points with 11 rebounds for the Rockets, who played without leading scorer Kevin Durant for the fifth time in the series. Amen Thompson added 18 points and eight rebounds while Tari Eason tallied 14 points. Reed Sheppard scored 10 points for Houston, but missed 15 of 19 shots, including 9 of 10 from 3-point range. Houston finished 5 of 28 (17.9%) from deep.
The Rockets’ promising bid to rally from a 3-0 series deficit and force a Game 7 in Los Angeles on Sunday fizzled quickly. Sengun gave Houston a 16-11 lead with a hook shot nearly seven minutes into the first quarter, but the Lakers seized control with a 12-0 run.
Reaves ignited the surge with a three-point play while Luke Kennard, Jake LaRavia and Hachimura added treys to lift the Lakers to a 23-16 lead.
The Lakers opened the second with a 9-0 spurt keyed by James, who scored in the post, drilled a 3-pointer and tallied a driving layup.
The Rockets missed their first 11 shots of the second, with Sheppard ending the drought by driving for a layup at the 6:55 mark. After Thompson scored through a foul to cut what had been a 19-point deficit to 11, Ayton sank 1 of 2 free throws and then James assisted on a Hachimura trey before nailing a pull-up 3-pointer that helped the Lakers re carry a 49-31 lead into the intermission.
Los Angeles led by as many as 29 points in the second half.
