White Sox Get Past Kansas City for 5-4 Win
The Chicago White Sox had to overcome a fine effort from Kansas City pitcher Chris Sale to grab a narrow 5-4 win at Guaranteed Rate Field. Sale went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. The win belongs to Addison Reed in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Jairo Diaz took the loss for Kansas City. Chicago, now 8-15, is off to a slow start.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Chicago trailing 4-2, Stephen Vogt hit a slider from Jairo Diaz for a 3-run home run, giving the White Sox the walk-off win.

"Chalk one up for the good guys," said Vogt. "I'm sure our fans enjoyed that win."
