AJ Pollock, Jose Abreu and Leury Garcia each chipped in with
three hits as part of Chicago's 15-hit attack.
For Texas, Nathaniel Lowe homered, had three hits and drove in
two runs.
With the win, the White Sox split the four-game series.
White Sox right-hander Lucas Giolito (8-6) worked five innings,
giving up one run on six hits, while collecting the win.
Texas' Spencer Howard (2-4) was lifted after 3 1/3 innings after
allowing six runs, with five earned. The right-hander scattered
eight hits and struck out three with a walk.
In the second inning, the White Sox took the lead on Pollock's
RBI single and never looked back. Josh Harrison, who walked,
scored from second.
Chicago padded its lead to three runs in the second inning on
Jose Abreu's one-out single and Vaughn's two-run home run to
center.
The Rangers chipped away with a run in the third inning. Marcus
Semien singled and Corey Seager walked, setting up Lowe's
run-scoring single to right.
In the fourth inning, Chicago capitalized on Seager's error at
shortstop, which allowed Garcia to reach. Pollock doubled and
Robert ripped a two-run double to right, ending Howard's
afternoon.
Left-hander Brett Martin entered, and allowed an RBI single to
Eloy Jimenez, increasing the White Sox's lead to 6-1.
In the sixth inning, Yoan Moncada walked with the bases full,
picking up an RBI and accounting for Chicago's seventh run.
The White Sox were without Tim Anderson on Sunday, who served
the first of his two-game suspension for making contact with
umpire Nick Mahrley on July 29. MLB announced Sunday that
Anderson's appeal of his three-game suspension was reduced to
two games. The shortstop will also sit out the first game of
Tuesday's doubleheader at Kansas City to complete his
suspension.
