ARLINGTON, Texas — Miguel Gonzalez and Juan Minaya pitched out of trouble just well enough on Sunday.

Gonzalez escaped early trouble to finish six scoreless innings and Minaya recorded the final out after giving up a two-run homer, leading the Chicago White Sox over the Texas Rangers 3-2.

Texas dropped 2 ½ games behind the Twins and the Angels for the AL's second wild-card spot. The Rangers finished a 10-game homestand 7-3, but split the four-game series against Chicago.

Gonzalez (7-10) pitched out of one-out, bases-loaded jams in both the second and third innings.

"I just didn't have that feel in the second and third inning," he said.
