Andrew Benintendi had two hits and drove in two runs, while Will Robertson knocked in the other run for the White Sox (55-89), who have won seven of their last eight games.

Chase Meidroth and Mike Tauchman hit back-to-back singles for the White Sox in the eighth. A walk loaded the bases before Sosa's two-run single gave Chicago a 6-4 lead.

Grant Taylor (2-4) picked up the win in relief, while Mike Vasil recorded his fourth save.


Wenceel Perez had two hits and an RBI for the Tigers (82-62).

Chicago scored two runs in the first. Tauchman led off with a single and Sosa drew a one-out walk. With two down, Benintendi smacked a double to center to knock in both runners.

The Tigers took a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the inning. They loaded the bases on walks to Gleyber Torres and Riley Greene sandwiching Kerry Carpenter's ground-rule double.
