Lamb, Herrmann hit HRs, D-backs hold off White Sox 5-4 (May 23, 2017)

PHOENIX (AP) Jake Lamb and Chris Herrmann homered and Arizona held off the Chicago White Sox 5-4 on Tuesday night for the Diamondbacks’ seventh win in eight games.

Patrick Corbin (4-4) settled down after a tough start to get the victory. The left-hander went six innings plus one batter, allowing three runs and scattering eight hits.

Chicago rookie Dylan Covey (0-4), still looking for his first big-league win after eight starts, left the game with one out in the third inning with left oblique soreness.

Jose Abreu cut the lead to 5-4 with a leadoff home run of Jorge De La Rosa to start the eighth.
