The homer came against Chicago starting pitcher
Lucas Giolito (5-5), who allowed three runs (one earned) and
struck out 10 in six innings. Giolito surrendered three hits and
walked one.
Devers raised his RBI total to 60. Yoshida had two of Boston's
four hits in the win, with Enrique Hernandez collected the Red
Sox's other hit.
Bello (5-4) limited the White Sox to a run on six hits in 6 2/3
innings. He recorded five strikeouts and walked one. Bello has
given up no more than two earned runs in nine of his past 10
starts, and pitching to a 2.45 ERA in that span.
Kenley Jansen pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his 16th
save of the season.
The Red Sox grabbed a 1-0 lead in the top of the third, when
David Hamilton walked, stole second and scored on a two-base
error by second baseman Tim Anderson. The White Sox made it 1-1
in the bottom of the inning on Anderson's sacrifice fly, which
scored Seby Zavala.
Hamilton made his major league debut on Wednesday and made his
second start on Friday, going 0-for-2 to leave him 1-for-5
overall. He stole 70 bases for Double-A Portland last season and
had 27 thefts with Triple-A Worcester this year.
Eloy Jimenez had three hits for the White Sox, who have lost
nine of their last 12 games. Chicago, which finished with eight
hits, is 18-20 at home this season.
Boston's victory came in the opener of a three-game series. It
was the first meeting between the Red Sox and White Sox this
season.
