CHICAGO (AP) --- Colson Montgomery, Sam Antonacci and Chase Meidroth homered in
Chicago's six-run sixth inning and the White Sox held on to top the Los Angeles
Dodgers 6-4 on Sunday.
Montgomery added a double and Andrew Benintendi finished with two hits as
Chicago won its eighth straight series at home and took a set from the Dodgers
for the first time since 2014. The White Sox's (38-32) fourth win in their last
five overall moved them back into a first-place tie with Cleveland (39-33) in
the AL Central.
Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts hit solo homers for NL West-leading Los
Angeles. Alex Freeland had two RBIs.
Erick Fedde (2-5), Chicago's third pitcher, tossed 2 2/3 scoreless innings for
the win. Seranthony Dominguez allowed a run on a double and two walks in the
ninth, but struck out Freeman with two men on for his 12th save.
The White Sox trailed 1-0 and had one hit before they smacked six straight hits
off Dodgers starter Emmet Sheehan and reliever Jack Dreyer to open the sixth.
Antonnacci led off with a solo shot to tie it. Miguel Vargas singled and came
home on Benintendi's double to put Chicago ahead 2-1.
Montgomery greeted Dreyer with his 17th homer, a two-run drive that made it
4-1. After Braden Montgomery singled, Meidroth went deep to push Chicago's lead
to 6-1.
Sheehan (3-4) allowed three runs and four hits, striking out eight in five-plus
innings. He didn't allow a hit until Colson Montgomery doubled with two outs in
the fourth.
The White Sox opened with pair of left-handers for the first 3 1/3 innings
against a Dodgers starting lineup with six left-handed batters, topped by
Shohei Ohtani.
Bryan Hudson pitched the first and allowed Freeman's 11th homer. Sean Newcomb
followed with 2 1/3 hitless innings before Fedde took over with one out in the
fourth.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts missed the game to attend his daughter's college
graduation.
