Danny Mendick drove in two runs for the White
Sox, who lead the season series against the Tigers, 9-2. Jake
Burger, making his major league debut, had two hits and scored a
run.
White Sox starter Lance Lynn (8-3) battled control issues but
held the Tigers to one run on four hits. He walked five and
struck out nine in six innings.
Detroit starter Casey Mize (5-5) gave up two runs on four hits
with four strikeouts in three innings. He's temporarily under an
innings restriction. Akil Baddoo had two hits and stole two
bases and Robbie Grossman reached base four times.
The White Sox scored twice in the opening inning against Mize.
Tim Anderson reached on an infield single and moved up on a
groundout. Yasmani Grandal's single to right brought him in and
Grandal scored on Brian Goodwin's triple to center.
The Tigers stranded two runners in the first, as Miguel Cabrera
popped out and Jeimer Candelario struck out. Lynn got into a
similar jam in the fourth before retiring Daz Cameron on a
grounder and Harold Castro on a strikeout.
Detroit scored a run in the fifth. Jake Rogers and Baddoo hit
back-to-back, one-out singles. Rogers scored on Jonathan
Schoop's long fly ball.
Lynn walked two batters in the sixth but was aided by left
fielder Vaughn's diving grab of a Cameron liner before striking
out Rogers to end the inning.
The White Sox made it 3-1 in the seventh. Vaughn led off against
Erasmo Ramirez with a double. Burger reached on a double, his
first major league hit, that Cameron lost in the lights but
Vaughn held up at third. Vaughn scored on Mendick's sacrifice
fly.
Vaughn drilled his eighth homer of the season off Bryan Garcia
in the ninth. That sparked a five-run outburst. After Mendick
singled in a run, Sheets delivered his long ball against Buck
Farmer.
