TORONTO \u2014 Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette homered, helping Jos\u00e9 Berr\u00edos and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the lowly White Sox 7-1 on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Berr\u00edos surrendered an unearned run and two hits in a season-high 7 2\/3 innings. The right-hander struck out five and walked three in his first win since May 29.<\/p>\n
The last-place White Sox finished with two hits in their ninth loss in 10 games. They dropped to 8-32 on the road this year.<\/p>\n
Davis Schneider had two hits and three RBIs as Toronto bounced back nicely from Friday’s 7-1 loss in the series opener.<\/p>\n
The crowd of 41,488 rose for a standing ovation when Berr\u00edos (3-3) exited after walking Ryan Noda. The lengthy start was a welcome one for a Toronto bullpen that used six relievers to cover seven innings Friday.<\/p>\n
Ahead 1-0 on Bichette’s game-opening homer, Toronto used five singles to add three more runs in the second inning. George Springer scored on a throwing error by right fielder Austin Slater, and Nathan Lukes and Schneider each had run-scoring hits.<\/p>\n
Chicago’s Miguel Vargas tripled and scored on Guerrero’s throwing error in the top of the sixth, but the Blue Jays slugger restored Toronto’s four-run cushion with a two-out homer in the seventh, his 10th.<\/p>\n
White Sox right-hander Aaron Civale (1-4) allowed five runs and nine hits in seven innings.<\/p>\n
Key moment:<\/p>\n
Bichette went deep on Civale’s first pitch for his third leadoff homer this season and the sixth of his career.<\/p>\n
Key stat:<\/p>\n
Bichette leads the Blue Jays with 11 home runs, including three in the past five games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chicago White Sox pitcher Jake Palisch (60) reacts during the eighth inning of baseball game against Toronto Blue…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122017,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2378],"tags":[1769,5,377,2554,49,3893,4,3892,185,6407,282,70,2553],"class_list":{"0":"post-122016","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-toronto-blue-jays","8":"tag-associated-press","9":"tag-baseball","10":"tag-blue-jays","11":"tag-bluejays","12":"tag-chicago-white-sox","13":"tag-content-providers","14":"tag-mlb","15":"tag-pro-sports","16":"tag-sports","17":"tag-sports-types","18":"tag-toronto","19":"tag-toronto-blue-jays","20":"tag-torontobluejays"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/114725235296718080","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=122016"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122016\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122017"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=122016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=122016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=122016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
