White Sox Double Up Phillies

Leury Garcia hit a grand slam, Eloy Jimenez added a three-run shot and Tim Anderson also went deep to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 10-5 win over the Phillies on Sunday.

 

Drew Smyly allowed five runs in the second inning, four of them on Garcia's 431-foot blast that landed just shy of the outfield concourse. Garcia's seventh homer of the season was his first career grand slam.

 

Reynaldo Lopez was chased after 5 1/3 innings and the White Sox leading 5-3. Aaron Bummer came out of the bullpen and got Rodriguez to hit into a double play to end the rally. Jimenez sealed the win in the eighth when he went deep off Mike Morin in the eighth for his 18th homer of the year.

 

The White Sox road trip continues in Detroit with RHP Lucas Giolito (11-5, 3.39) taking the ball in the opener of a four-game series.
