The White Sox signed Tauchman to a one-year, $1.95 million deal in December, and he'll enter his third year of arbitration in 2026. General manager Chris Getz received calls about Tauchman ahead of the July 31 trade deadline, but ultimately decided to keep him.

The Tigers struck first in the fourth inning against their division rivals. However, the White Sox got to Jack Flaherty in the fifth inning, putting up a surprising five-spot in the frame. Chicago continued to pile on the runs as the game wore on, with a late Detroit rally falling short, with the home side coming away with a 9-6 win.
