Athletics Hammered by Gibbons, Drop Game 4 to White Sox
The Chicago White Sox and the Oakland Athletics will take the Division Series to a decisive 5th game. In a must-win situation, the White Sox beat the Athletics, 10-4, at O.co Coliseum to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Chicago right fielder Ben Gibbons was 3-5 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4.

Ethan Ellison contributed to the Chicago win with a run-scoring single in the top of the third. For the game, the designated hitter had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Gibbons.

Game 5 is scheduled for Thursday at U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago.
