04/12 19:51 CDT Tanner Murray hits first MLB homer and White Sox edge Royals
6-5 after 3-hour rain delay
Tanner Murray hits first MLB homer and White Sox edge Royals 6-5 after 3-hour
rain delay
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) --- Tanner Murray hit his first major league home run,
Colson Montgomery also connected and the Chicago White Sox outlasted the Kansas
City Royals 6-5 on Sunday after the first pitch was pushed back 3 hours because
of rain.
Dustin Harris led off the seventh inning with a pinch-hit double and scored the
tiebreaking run for the White Sox on a wild pitch by John Schreiber (0-2).
Chicago equaled a club record by using nine pitchers in a nine-inning game.
That mark was set against Cleveland on Sept. 14, 1997.
The last four White Sox relievers --- Bryan Hudson, Jordan Leasure (1-0), Lucas
Sims and Seranthony Domnguez --- combined for six strikeouts in 4 1/3 hitless
innings. Domnguez got three outs for his third save.
Following the long delay, Murray launched a two-run homer off starter Noah
Cameron in the second to give the White Sox a 2-0 lead. That snapped a
scoreless streak for Chicago that lasted 21 2/3 innings.
It was the second career hit for the 26-year-old Murray, who debuted in the
majors April 5.
