Cubs edge White Sox for eighth straight win

Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks was equally ineffective, allowing five earned runs on eight hits over 3 1/3 innings, striking out three and walking three. He walked Jose Abreu and Melky Cabrera with two outs and nobody on base in the first, followed by Avisail Garcia's two-run double.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Eaton goes deep: The 2015 power surge for Adam Eaton continued when he went the opposite way on a 0-1 pitch from Hendricks in the fourth inning. That blast gave the White Sox a 5-4 lead and increased Eaton's career-high homer total to 10.
