White Sox take advantage of Mariners' miscues for 9-6 win September 7 sharefacebooktwitterredditlink SEATTLE (AP) Eloy Jimnez drove in three runs with a homer and double, Chicago took advantage of three errors, and the White Sox rallied to beat the Seattle Mariners 9-6 on Wednesday. The White Sox took two of three in the series and stayed on the heels of Cleveland and Minnesota in the crowded AL Central race. It looked early like it would Catfish Hunter Jersey be a series lo s for the White Sox as Seattle starter Luis Castillo tied an American League record by striking out the first seven batters to start the game.But Castillo made a mistake giving up Jimnez's two-out home run in the fourth inning, and watched Chicago rally for four runs in the sixth inning that started with a fielding error by third baseman Eugenio Surez. Seattle got a pair of home runs by Surez for hits Nos. 1,000 and 1,001 of his career. The second homer led off the seventh and pulled Seattle even at 6. But the White Sox took advantage of another defensive mistake in the eighth. Jimnez singled with one out, and pinch-runner Leury Garca stole second and moved to third on a throwing error by catcher Curt Casali. Garca scored easily on Gavin Sheets groundout that bounced high off the plate. Chicago added two more runs in the ninth after a throwing error by reliever Chris Flexen.Aaron Bummer (1-1) allowed Suarezs homer in the seventh inning, but pitched out of a jam after Seattle had runners at first and second and no outs and couldnt add on. Vince Velasquez pitched the eighth and Liam Hendriks struck Oakland Athletics Jersey out the side the ninth for his 31st save. Seattle lost for just the fourth time in the past 15 games, but any lo s with Castillo on the mound hurts as the Mariners are vying with Tampa Bay and Toronto for the top wild-card spot in the AL. Castillo set a franchise record for most consecutive strikeouts to start a game. The first ball put in play by Chicago came with one out in the third inning when Josh Harrison grounded out on a 3-2 pitch. But he couldnt make it through the sixth inning. After Suarez's error, Jos Abreu dribbled an RBI single through the infield and Jimnez's RBI double pulled the White Sox even at 4. Sheets hit a sacrifice fly and Andrew Vaughn capped the inning with an RBI double. Castillo finished with eight strikeouts and only three of the six runs allowed were earned.Diego Castillo (7-3) lost in relief.Chicago starter Michael Kopech returned from the injured list and threw 3 2/3 innings, allowing four runs on four hits. RECORD STARTCastillos seven strikeouts to begin the game matched an AL record first accomplished by Joe Cowley for the White Sox on May 28, 1986. Carlos Rodn for the White Sox (Sept.30, 2016) and Blake Snell for Tampa Bay (June 3, 2018) also struck out the first seven Terry Steinbach Jersey batters of the game. The major league record is nine straight by Miamis Pablo Lpez set last season. TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: OF Luis Robert was out of the lineup a day after getting hit on his left fingers during a swing.
