Chris Sale won again, pitching eight sharp innings and
leading the Chicago White Sox over the Toronto Blue Jays 10-1
Tuesday night for their fifth straight win.
Sale (5-0) has won all of his starts this season and leads the
majors in victories. The lefty ace has a 1.66 ERA.
Sale carried a one-hitter into the seventh inning, retiring 13
straight batters before Edwin Encarnacion homered. Sale gave up
four hits in eight innings, striking out six and walking two.
Dioner Navarro hit a two-run homer and Avisail Garcia and Adam
Eaton added solo shots for Chicago.
The three home runs, 15 hits and 10 runs were all season highs for
the White Sox.
