Eloy Jimenez went 4-for-5 and scored two runs
as the White Sox reached the 10-run mark for the third time
since the All-Star break, doing so in six innings after erasing
an early four-run hole.
Anthony Santander homered and doubled for Baltimore, which
continues to lead the American League East.
The Orioles were aiming for their third sweep of a three-game
series in August. Instead, they won the first two games and
dropped the finale -- just as they did over the weekend versus
Colorado. Still, Baltimore wrapped up a 6-3 homestand.
The White Sox, who had lost two straight games and four of their
previous six, cranked out three home runs in three innings
against Orioles starter Kyle Gibson (13-8), who was charged with
seven runs and nine hits in 4 1/3 innings. Gibson suffered a
loss for just the second time since July 4.
Despite a rough first inning, Chicago starter Dylan Crease (6-7)
worked six innings and gave up five runs on six hits with seven
strikeouts and three walks. He notched his second win in his
last six decisions.
Jimmy Lambert pitched two shutout innings in relief before
Gregory Santos worked a scoreless ninth despite giving up two
hits before recording an out.
Baltimore scored four first-inning runs with four players
collecting an RBI, beginning with Santander's run-scoring
double.
Vaughn hit his 17th homer of the season in the second and, later
in the inning, Colas went deep for the fourth time this year.
Both homers were two-run shots.
Chicago took the lead in the third when Robert connected for his
35th home run. The lead grew to 7-4 with Vaughn knocking in a
run with a double and Elvis Andrus supplying an RBI single.
Santander countered in the bottom of the third with his 26th
homer.
In the sixth, Chicago's Tim Anderson rapped a two-run triple and
Andrew Benintendi had a run-scoring double.
Jorge Mateo and Adam Frazier joined Santander with two hits for
the Orioles.
