White Sox Spill Blue Jays, 6-5
The Toronto Blue Jays got a superb performance from catcher Robinson Chirinos. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Chicago. The White Sox won the game, 6-5. Chirinos went 2 for 5 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Chicago pitcher Julian Fernandez got the win. He's now 5-0. Chi Chi Gonzalez was tagged with the loss. Addison Reed earned his 17th save in 19 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for A.J. Simcox, the 26-year old third baseman . Simcox contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the second inning to put Chicago up, 2-0.

"Enjoyed this one," Simcox told the Chicago Herald. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

The win has Chicago at 35-53.
