Erik Miller (3-4) struck out Gavin Sheets to
preserve a 2-2 tie, but Lee, a former Cal standout, drilled his
two-run single up the middle off Spencer Bivens, giving Chicago
the lead.
Lenyn Sosa then drove in another two runs with a single of his
own to complete the scoring.
Rookie Fraser Ellard (1-1) was credited with his first career
major league win after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth before John
Brebbia worked a scoreless ninth.
After losing the first two games of the series with San
Francisco, the White Sox never trailed on Wednesday, scoring
single runs in the first and fourth innings before the Giants
put up a pair in the last of the fourth.
A game-opening triple by Nicky Lopez set up an Andrew Benintendi
run-scoring groundout to get Chicago on the board first. Luis
Robert Jr. doubled leading off the fourth and later scored on
Vaughn's sacrifice fly to make it 2-0.
Those were the only runs the White Sox got off Webb, who retired
12 of the final 13 batters he faced.
Looking to win a fifth consecutive start, Webb allowed the two
runs on five hits in his eight innings. He struck out six
without issuing a walk.
Crochet took a one-hit shutout into the Giants' half of the
fourth before consecutive doubles by Mark Canha and Heliot Ramos
set the table for Jerar Encarnacion's run-scoring groundout and
Thairo Estrada's game-tying, two-out RBI single.
Crochet was pulled from a 2-2 tie after four innings, having
allowed both Giants runs and four hits. He walked one and struck
out four.
Robert finished with a double, a single and two runs for the
White Sox, who outhit the Giants 8-6. Sheets also had a pair of
hits.
Ramos had two doubles for the Giants, who saw a three-game
winning streak come to an end.
