Munetaka Murakami hit a two-run homer, and Colson Montgomery followed with a solo shot in Chicago’s three-run sixth inning as the White Sox beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3 Saturday for their second straight victory.<\/p>\n
Murakami’s 431-foot shot to straightaway center off Brendon Little was his fourth homer and first at home since signing with the White Sox (3-5) as a free agent in December. He added a sacrifice fly to finish with three RBIs. Miguel Vargas added two hits, including a double.<\/p>\n
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit his first homer of the season, a two-run shot in the top of the sixth to give Toronto (4-4) a 2-1 lead. Pinch hitter Nathan Lukes drove in a run with a sacrifice fly.<\/p>\n
Before the game, the Blue Jays placed two-time All-Star catcher Alejandro Kirk on the injured list with a dislocated and fractured left thumb.<\/p>\n
Chris Murphy (1-0), the third of six Chicago pitchers, worked one inning and earned the win. Seranthony Dominguez worked around a single and walk in the ninth for his first save.<\/p>\n
Little (0-2) got only one out, while allowing three runs on three hits.<\/p>\n
Murakami’s sac fly in the first gave the White Sox a 1-0 lead off Toronto opener Mason Fluharty. Lazaro Estrada followed with four scoreless and hitless innings.<\/p>\n
Chicago right-hander Grant Taylor opened and pitched a scoreless inning for a second straight day. Anthony Kay followed and pitched 4 1\/3 innings, allowing three hits and Guerrero’s two-run homer, a 437-foot shot to left-center that gave the Jays the lead.<\/p>\n
After Murakami and Montgomery gave Chicago a 4-2 lead, Lukes’ sac fly cut it to 4-3 in the seventh.<\/p>\n
