White Sox Deal Astros 6-3 Loss
The Chicago White Sox beat the Houston Astros, 6-3. Chicago pitcher and Southlake, Texas, native Ross Stripling led the way. Stripling went 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 1 hit, walked 0, and struck out 5. His record improves to 3-7. Chicago currently is in last place in the American League Central Division at 31-41.

Chicago used a well-timed hit by Jason Heyward to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the White Sox ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"We'll enjoy this win," said Heyward. "But there's more we hope to accomplish."
