White Sox 11, Tigers 5: Chicago homers doom Detroiters

The rubber match of a three-game weekend series, which had featured two close games to that point, had a finale that was close early but split wide open later on. The White Sox, who have to keep up their La Russa-less winning ways to stay in the AL Central race, beat the Tigers 11-5 on a hazy Sunday afternoon.

Drew Hutchison, who’s currently on his third stint with the Tigers — and yet has the second-most starts on the team (thanks, injuries!) — made the start. Since rejoining the rotation at the start of August, a standard kind of start for Hutch will give you about five innings, and he’ll limit the damage to two or three runs.
