Mike Tauchman and Sosa finished with 3 hits as the White Sox won for just the third time in 14 games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">Arizona&#8217;s Josh Naylor hit his 10th homer among two hits.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">White Sox rookie starter Sean Burke (4-7) allowed two runs on five hits over five innings, striking out seven. Three relievers yielded one unearned run.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">Zac Gallen (5-9) permitted five runs on eight hits in 5\u2153 innings.

The fan has since been banned from Rate Field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">Key moment<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">The White Sox tacked on insurance runs on Sosa&#8217;s RBI single in the sixth and Chase Meidroth&#8217;s sacrifice fly in the seventh. Sosa&#8217;s solo shot in the eighth sealed it at 7-3.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">Key stat<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__body\">The 29-year-old Gallen had a 43-19 combined record and 3.20 ERA over the past three seasons, and was an All-Star in 2023.
