White Sox can't keep pace with Angels' offense in 12-8 loss

Francisco Arcia became the first Angels player with four RBIs in his major league debut, hitting a three-run homer in a 12-8 win over the White Sox on Thursday.

A 28-year-old who has spent 12 seasons in the minor leagues, Arcia was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake and started at catcher following the trade of Martin Maldonado to Houston earlier in the day. Batting eighth in the order, Arcia lined out in the second inning, walked in the fourth, struck out in the fifth and hit a three-run homer in the seventh against Juan Minaya that put the Angels ahead 9-5.
