White Sox Get Hard-Earned Win
Jorge Maldonado left his imprint on the 10-9 Chicago win against the Oakland Athletics. Maldonado was 3-5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 5. The last-place Athletics now sit at 64-94.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Chicago trailing 9-6, Maldonado hit a fastball from T.J. Sikkema for a grand slam home run, giving the White Sox the walk-off win.

"This place went bananas," Maldonado said.
