Winless in his three previous August starts,
Harrison (7-5) limited the White Sox to one run and five hits.
He walked two and struck out five.
The rookie pitched out of no-out jams in the third with the
bases loaded and the fourth with two aboard, retaining a
scoreless tie in an early pitchers' duel with Chicago's Jonathan
Cannon (2-7).
The White Sox were finally able to break through for the game's
first run when Luis Robert Jr. singled home Brooks Baldwin with
two outs in the fifth.
The Giants then responded with their big inning, ignited by
consecutive one-out singles by Thairo Estrada and Grant McCray.
Curt Casali tied the game with a single, Fitzgerald gave the
Giants the lead with his double, LaMonte Wade Jr. made it 3-1
with an infield single and Fitzgerald scampered home on Heliot
Ramos' sacrifice fly, capping the uprising.
Chapman's homer, his 20th, led off the sixth and completed the
Giants' scoring.
Cannon was pulled after finishing the sixth, charged with five
runs on eight hits. He walked one and struck out four.
Seeking to end a two-game losing streak, the White Sox got
within 5-3 on a sacrifice fly by Miguel Vargas and an RBI single
by Gavin Sheets in the eighth. However, Tyler Rogers got pinch
hitter Andrew Benintendi to ground out with the potential tying
runs aboard to retain the two-run margin.
The White Sox also got two aboard in the ninth before Jordan
Hicks recorded the final two outs on flyballs to lock down his
first save of the season.
Chapman, Casali, Wade and Michael Conforto had two hits apiece
for the Giants, who out-hit the visitors 12-11.
Robert collected three singles, while Baldwin, Korey Lee and
Dominic Fletcher had two hits each for Chicago.
