CHICAGO (AP) \u2014 Tristan Peters hit a two-run double off Jacob deGrom during Chicago’s six-run first inning, and the White Sox held off the Texas Rangers 11-7 on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
Peters also went deep in the sixth, extending his career-high homer streak to four games. The All-Star outfielder had three of Chicago’s 14 hits and walked twice.<\/p>\n
Brenton Doyle added two hits and two RBIs as the AL Central-leading White Sox (69-63) improved to 3-3 on a seven-game homestand.<\/p>\n
Texas had won four of five, including an 11-2 victory over Chicago on Monday night. The Rangers (66-67) dropped into second in the sluggish AL West, a half-game back of Houston.<\/p>\n
Jake Burger, Danny Jansen and Justin Foscue homered for Texas.<\/p>\n
The Rangers loaded the bases with two out in the ninth. Grant Taylor came in and earned his eighth save when Cody Freeman bounced into a fielder’s choice.<\/p>\n
DeGrom (9-9) was charged with eight runs and six hits in 3 2\/3 innings. The two-time Cy Young Award winner issued five walks and struck out a season-low two.<\/p>\n
The eight earned runs were the most allowed by deGrom since joining the Rangers and matched his career high.<\/p>\n
Peters’ broken-bat liner to right drove in Miguel Vargas and Braden Montgomery, giving Chicago a 4-0 lead. Doyle followed with a two-run single.<\/p>\n
DeGrom has surrendered 26 runs in the first inning over his 25 starts this season and 61 runs overall.<\/p>\n
Texas closed within 10-7 on Foscue’s ninth homer, a two-run drive to left in the sixth. Peters responded with a solo shot in the bottom half for his 11th career homer \u2014 all this season.<\/p>\n
White Sox left-hander Anthony Kay allowed four runs and six hits in 4 2\/3 innings. Bryan Hudson (4-4) got four outs for the win.<\/p>\n
Left-hander MacKenzie Gore (7-9, 4.26 ERA) pitches for Texas in the series finale on Wednesday night. Right-hander Sean Burke (7-6, 3.27) starts for Chicago.<\/p>\n
