The Chicago White Sox polished off the Kansas City Royals by the score of 10-4. The largest share of the credit belonged to shortstop Jimmy Lambert. Lambert went 3-5 with 3 doubles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 for the White Sox. With the win, the White Sox sit at 39-37.

Billy LaBelle had a big 2-run home run for the White Sox in the top of the fourth inning. With Chicago leading 5-2 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a fastball from Kory Valiante, who is tied for 8th in the AL with a 10.2 K/9 rate, and punished it. The result was his 17th home run of the season, which put the White Sox on top, 7-2.

Chicago manager White Sox Manager commended his team for "putting the pedal to the metal."
