White Sox Topple Royals, 4-3, as Hodges Shines
Chris Hodges knocked in 3 runs to help Chicago beat Kansas City, 4-3. The second baseman collected 2 singles, 1 double, and 1 home run. Matthew Emerson earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. He upped his record to 2-1. The White Sox, now 10-3, have played inspired baseball.

Joey Aimone, the 25-year old left fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Aimone contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth inning to put Chicago up, 4-3.

"Everyone's kind of edgy right now," said losing manager Connor Gould, "but nothing a couple of wins wouldn't cure."
