Gio Urshela singled with one out before Zach
McKinstry drew a two-out walk to put Ibanez in position to be
the hero. Matt Vierling pinch-ran for Urshela and came home on
Ibanez's decisive hit.
Chicago went down in order in the home half of the ninth. Tyler
Holton (1-0) struck out Gavin Sheets, then Jason Foley came on
to get Andrew Vaughn and Braden Shewmake to both ground out for
his second save of the season.
Steven Wilson (0-1) was tagged with the loss.
Kerry Carpenter and Jake Rogers went deep for Detroit, with
Carpenter adding a single as part of a 2-for-4 day. Urshela also
finished with two hits.
Making his Tigers debut, Jack Flaherty recorded a quality start,
allowing one run on four hits in six innings. He didn't issue a
walk while striking out seven.
Flaherty, who spent last season with the St. Louis Cardinals and
Baltimore Orioles, was in line for the win before Paul DeJong
clubbed a solo home run in the seventh to tie things at 2.
Korey Lee also homered for the White Sox, who hadn't been swept
in a season-opening series since coming up empty in a three-game
set with the Kansas City Royals in 2015.
Chicago starter Erick Fedde went 4 2/3 innings, giving up two
runs and five hits. He walked one and fanned seven.
The White Sox looked poised to open the scoring in the second
when Shewmake singled and stole second with one out, but
Flaherty recorded back-to-back strikeouts to escape the frame
unscathed.
However, Chicago broke through an inning later, as Lee began the
home half of the third with a solo shot.
Carpenter tied things up with a solo home run of his own in the
fourth.
