Turner had two RBIs and two runs while
finishing a triple shy of the cycle for the Phillies, who have
won four of their last six games. Brandon Marsh also homered
among his two hits.
Walker (2-1) surrendered two runs on five hits while walking two
and fanning three to record his second straight quality start.
Walker was lifted with runners at first and second with one out
in the seventh. Reliever Gregory Soto got pinch hitter Romy
Gonzalez to fly out before striking out Lenyn Sosa to close the
seventh and keep Walker in line for the win.
Craig Kimbrel followed by logging a scoreless eighth before Jose
Alvarado worked a 1-2-3 ninth for his second save.
Andrew Vaughn hit his first home run of the season and finished
with two hits for Chicago, which lost for the sixth time in its
last eight games. Luis Robert Jr. provided the White Sox's only
other extra-base hit, a double in the first.
After Turner gave the Phillies a 1-0 lead two batters into the
game with a solo shot, Vaughn responded with a two-run homer in
the home half of the first. Marsh then went deep to lead off the
second, knotting things at 2-2.
Turner put Philadelphia back on top when he singled, stole
second and scored on Nick Castellanos' two-out bloop single to
left in the third. White Sox starter Mike Clevinger was forced
to throw 44 pitches in the inning, which ended up being his last
frame.
Clevinger (2-1) allowed three runs on six hits. He walked one
and struck out one.
Tanner Banks took over in the fourth and served up back-to-back
RBI doubles to Bryson Stott and Turner that gave the Phillies a
5-2 advantage.
Keynan Middleton and Gregory Santos cooled down Philadelphia's
offense by combining for three innings of hitless relief while
striking out five, but the Chicago bats never came around, going
1-for-5 with runners in scoring position.
