CHICAGO (AP) -- Carlos Quentin hit a go-ahead two-run single in the seventh inning to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 8-7 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Paul Konerko hit a two-run homer, his 17th of the season, and Alex Rios was 2 for 3 with three runs scored for the White Sox, who improved to 2-4 on a nine-game homestand. J.J. Putz (1-2) struck out two in a scoreless seventh to get the win, and Bobby Jenks pitched a perfect ninth for his ninth save in 10 chances. Left-hander Mark Buehrle allowed six runs over three innings on eight hits for Chicago. Lou Marson hit a three-run homer and Austin Kearns had three hits for the Indians. Cleveland starter Jake Westbrook pitched 4 2-3 innings and gave up six runs on seven hits. Tony Sipp (0-2) took the loss. (Copyright 2010 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.) |
