White Sox Better Tigers, 5-4
The Chicago White Sox topped the Detroit Tigers, 5-4, at U.S. Cellular Field. Chicago third baseman Jesse Grow was a spark plug for the offense. He went 1-4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Chicago reliever Jason Brown snagged the win, upping his record to 7-2. Bill Whittaker shouldered the loss. With the victory, the White Sox upped their record to 75-36.

Chicago took a 5-4 lead on Ben Gibbons's 26th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Gibbons hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Detroit pitcher Bill Whittaker visibly frustrated.

"We had situations where we should have got some runs in, but we didn't get the runs in," said losing manager Chris Gasparro.
