Randal Grichuk hit a solo home run for Toronto,
which snapped a two-game skid. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Teoscar
Hernandez and Rowdy Tellez added one RBI apiece.
Yoan Moncada and Nick Madrigal each drove in one run to lead the
White Sox. Tim Anderson was 1-for-3 with a double and two stolen
bases.
Blue Jays right-hander Tyler Chatwood (1-2) earned the victory
with a scoreless inning of relief. Toronto starter Alek Manoah
gave up two runs (one earned) on four hits in five innings.
White Sox left-hander Aaron Bummer (0-4) gave up three runs on
two hits and one walk in one-third of an inning. He spoiled a
strong start by Lance Lynn, who limited the Blue Jays to one run
on four hits in seven innings.
The White Sox grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first. Moncada singled
to drive in Jake Lamb.
Toronto evened the score at 1 in the second. Grichuk hammered a
451-foot homer over the wall in left field for his 13th homer of
the season and his fourth in the past six games.
In the fifth, the White Sox regained a 2-1 lead. Leury Garcia
drew a leadoff walk and scored on Madrigal's double to deep
center field.
The Blue Jays scored three runs against Chicago's bullpen to go
ahead 4-2 in the eighth. Toronto loaded the bases with one out
for Guerrero, who drew a walk on five pitches to bring home
Riley Adams to even the score.
An errant throw by Anderson on a double-play attempt allowed two
more runs to score and the Blue Jays to seize the lead. Bo
Bichette and Marcus Semien crossed the plate after Anderson's
throw sailed over Jose Abreu's glove.
Toronto added two more runs in the ninth to go ahead 6-2. Tellez
hit an RBI single to right field, and he later scored after a
fielding error by Abreu at first base.
Madrigal left the game after the seventh inning because of a
sore right hamstring. He will be re-evaluated Thursday.
