CHICAGO
- The
Chicago
White
Sox
overcame
an early
deficit
to
defeat
the
Detroit
Tigers
9-6 at
Guaranteed
Rate
Field on
Monday
night,
powered
by a
pivotal
five-run
fifth
inning
that
turned
the game
around.
White
Sox
starter
Yoendrys
Gómez
earned
his
first
win of
the
season
(1-1),
striking
out
seven
batters
over
five
innings
of work.
The
young
pitcher
and
Tigers
starter
Jack
Flaherty
engaged
in a
pitcher's
duel
early,
with
both
hurlers
tossing
three
scoreless
frames
to open
the
contest.
Detroit
struck
first in
the
fourth
inning
when
Wenceel
Pérez
delivered
a
sacrifice
fly that
brought
home
Kerry
Carpenter,
giving
the
Tigers
an early
1-0
advantage.
However,
the
White
Sox
responded
emphatically
in the
bottom
of the
fifth
inning,
breaking
the game
open
with a
five-run
explosion
that
proved
to be
the
difference-maker.
Edgar
Quero
led the
Chicago
offensive
charge
with
three
hits and
three
RBIs,
providing
the
spark
the
White
Sox
needed
to
overcome
their
division
rivals.
The
victory
marked a
strong
bounce-back
performance
for
Chicago
after
recent
struggles,
while
Detroit
will
look to
regroup
as they
continue
their
series.
Both
teams
combined
for 15
runs and
plenty
of
offensive
fireworks
in what
turned
into an
entertaining
slugfest
at the
South
Side
ballpark.
The loss
drops
the
Tigers
further
back in
their
playoff
chase,
while
the
White
Sox will
hope to
build
momentum
from
this
impressive
offensive
showing
as they
continue
their
season.
