The Indians lost to the White Sox 4-3 Saturday night.
Trailing 4-1 in the ninth inning, Chris Johnson belted a two-run home run to center field to cut the lead to 4-3. Abraham Almonte then singled with two outs, bringing the winning run to the plate, which happened to be Jason Kipnis. He never got his shot, though, as Almonte was picked off first base to end the game.
