The Chicago White Sox withstood an impressive performance by Oakland designated hitter Evan Carter to defeat the Athletics, 10-4, at Guaranteed Rate Field. Carter went 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 times. Chicago is now 68-90. Oakland is 64-95.

The White Sox got a big at-bat from center fielder Ernesto Cordero, who in the bottom of the second hit a 2-run triple. It was his 2nd triple of the season and put the White Sox on top, 3-0.

"Like I've always said, I'm the straw that stirs the drink," Cordero said (again).
