Cubs Lose, 5-2, at Guaranteed Rate Field
The Chicago White Sox got a stellar performance from pitcher Chris Flexen, who handcuffed the Chicago offense en route to a 5-2 win at Guaranteed Rate Field. In 6 innings, Flexen surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. Jacob Rhame, credited with the save, is now 2 for 2 in save opportunities.

The White Sox got an important contribution from right fielder J.D. Martinez, who in the bottom of the fourth stroked a 2-2 circle change into left for a 2-run home run. It was his 31st home run of the season and put the White Sox ahead, 2-0.

"One win at a time, one game at a time. We try not to get too far ahead of ourselves," Flexen told the Chicago News.

The White Sox sit in 4th place in the American League Central Division with a record of 41-47.
