Toronto seized control early, scoring three
runs in the second inning. Schneider, who had led the game off
with a double following a 40-minute rain delay, punctuated the
rally with a two-run double.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa opened the scoring with an RBI double.
A 68-minute rain delay preceded the bottom of the ninth.
Toronto's Tim Mayza retired the White Sox in order on seven
pitches in the frame.
Chicago drew within 3-1 on Nicky Lopez's RBI double in the third
but was otherwise unable to solve Gausman (4-3).
The right-hander earned his third victory in five May starts,
giving up one run while scattering four hits across six innings
to go along with one walk and three strikeouts.
The White Sox have totaled only four runs in their past three
losses.
White Sox right-hander Jake Woodford took the loss in his team
debut, surrendering three runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings.
He logged two walks and four strikeouts.
Chicago selected Woodford's contract from Triple-A Charlotte
earlier Tuesday. He signed a minor league deal with the White
Sox in January.
Woodford (0-1) started in place of fellow veteran Mike Clevinger,
who was scratched from his scheduled outing before the game and
placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.
Eight Blue Jays had at least one hit, with Danny Jansen, Daulton
Varsho and George Springer contributing two apiece. Toronto
broke things open with a three-run eighth, which featured four
straight two-out hits, including Justin Turner's two-run single.
Andrew Vaughn drove in Chicago's second run with a two-out
single in the eighth inning. Lopez had two hits for the White
Sox.
Toronto clinched the season series with Chicago. The Blue Jays
took two of three games from the visiting White Sox last week
and are now 4-1 against them with only Wednesday's game left.
