CHICAGO (AP) --- Mike Tauchman drove in Colson Montgomery with an infield
single in the 11th inning, and the Chicago White Sox beat the Cleveland
Guardians 5-4 on Friday night to salvage a doubleheader split.
Batting with runners on the corners and one out, Tauchman's tapper rolled under
Kolby Allard's glove. Montgomery scampered home as Allard (2-1) went down to
one knee in frustration.
Chicago trailed 4-3 before Josh Rojas hit a sacrifice fly off Paul Sewald right
before it started to rain in the eighth.
Mike Vasil (4-3) pitched three innings for the win. He escaped a bases-loaded
jam in the 10th and 11th in the wet weather, delighting what was left of a
crowd of 25,084.
Cleveland had won four straight, including a 4-2 victory in the first game of
the day. The Guardians went 2 for 16 with runners in scoring position and
stranded 14 baserunners in the nightcap.
Jos Ramrez hit a two-run homer for Cleveland in the second game. Daniel
Schneemann doubled and scored, and he also made an outstanding diving catch on
Montgomery's liner to second in the fourth.
Lenyn Sosa hit solo drives in the first and the fifth against Gavin Williams,
helping Chicago take a 3-2 lead. It was Sosa's second career multihomer game
after he also went deep twice on June 25 against Arizona.
Cleveland tied it at 3 in the sixth. After Bo Naylor fouled out on a bunt
attempt with runners on the corners, Brayan Rocchio drove in Schneemann with a
double to left off Jordan Leasure.
Key moment Cleveland's Kyle Manzardo bounced into an inning-ending double play against Vasil in the 11th.
Key stat The White Sox improved to 1-4 against the Guardians in the season series.
Up next Tanner Bibee (4-9, 4.35 ERA) pitches for Cleveland on Saturday, and fellow right-hander Sean Burke (4-8, 4.40 ERA) starts for Chicago. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB
