Angels starter Jaime Barria pitched five strong
innings to earn the victory. Barria (2-2) scattered one run and
four hits with three walks and six strikeouts. He retired the
first four batters he faced before allowing Chicago to load the
bases with one out in the second. But Barria escaped the jam
without much damage, allowing Gavin Sheets' run-scoring
sacrifice fly before striking out Romy Gonzalez.
Barria scattered just three hits, all singles, after that.
White Sox starter Lance Lynn surrendered home runs to Ohtani and
Trout. He has yielded multiple homers in four of 12 starts this
season, and at least one home run in nine.
Lynn fell to 4-6 after spacing eight runs and eight hits in four
innings with two walks and four strikeouts. His most harrowing
inning? A four-run third, when he walked two and hit a pair of
batters around Ohtani's first home run and Jared Walsh's two-run
double.
Tucker Davidson picked up the save with three innings of
four-run relief.
Mickey Moniak, Ohtani, Ward and Walsh had two hits apiece for
Los Angeles. Walsh had three RBIs to add to Ohtani's four.
Ward and Ohtani, who delivered his first multi-home run game of
the season, have homered in consecutive games.
Andrew Vaughn and Yasmani Grandal both had a pair of hits for
the White Sox, who added a run on Clint Frazier's pinch-hit RBI
single in the seventh. Jake Burger hit a solo home run in the
ninth. Hanser Alberto closed the scoring with a two-run double.
Eloy Jimenez extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a
double one batter earlier.
The White Sox have lost four of five.
