HOUSTON -- The White Sox finally got out of their own way on Friday night.
Two-out run-scoring hits by Geovany Soto and Adam LaRoche helped the White Sox overcome a number of mistakes in a 6-3 victory over the Houston Astros in 11 innings at Minute Maid Field.
Three innings after he replaced Jose Abreu, who left with an injury, Soto’s two-run, opposite-field double off Tony Sipp helped the White Sox win for only the fourth time in 12 tries.
David Robertson pitched an inning for his 10th save, part of 4 2/3 scoreless frames by the bullpen.
