Losing Streak Continues for White Sox with 9-8 Loss to Athletics
The Oakland Athletics grabbed a win, 9-8, over the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field. Oakland first baseman Yared Ariza went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Reliever Kelvin DeSantis picked up the win. His record improves to 3-2. Kelly Biggs, who is tied for 8th in the AL in saves with 13, took the loss. Tristan Swiderski picked up the save for Oakland, his 17th of the year.

Oakland used the timely hitting of Jeff Lelm to seize the win. The designated hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Athletics on top, 9-8. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We're in a funk and we need to shake ourselves out of it," said Chicago manager Tristan Scoggins.

Now 42-34, Chicago has dropped 11 straight.
