White Sox Clip Orioles in Tight Contest
The Chicago White Sox topped the Baltimore Orioles by the score of 8-7, with the largest share of the credit going to center fielder Charlie Blackmon. Blackmon belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice for the White Sox. Jared Miller got credit for the win, improving to 3-1. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. Trevor Gott, credited with the save, is now 26 for 30 in save opportunities.

Blackmon had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 1-2 fastball from Carlos Estevez, he banged a 3-run home run to left, giving the White Sox a 8-5 lead. It was the 31st home run of the year for Blackmon.

"We got the victory," said Blackmon. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."

The first-place White Sox, at 79-69, now lead their division by 7 games.
