Price (7-2), coming up short in his bid to become the AL's first eight-game winner, allowed three runs, four hits, four walks and had four strikeouts over seven innings. His other loss this season also came against the White Sox in a 4-1 loss in Chicago on April 20.
The Rays, with the major's best record at 33-16, have lost four of five.
Matt Thornton worked the final 1 1-3 innings for his second save.
