Roundup: White Sox and Orioles Split Games Rescheduled After Riots

Chris Sale struck out 12 hitters over seven and two-thirds innings to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 3-2 victory Thursday over the host Orioles, who rebounded for a 6-3 win in the second game of a doubleheader that was a product of rioting in Baltimore last month.

The doubleheader was scheduled after games on April 27 and 28 were postponed because of riots near the ballpark after the funeral of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who died of spinal injuries sustained while in the custody of the police. The third game of that series was played without fans in the stadium.
