Chicago scored its first run after an intentional balk, Lenyn Sosa hit a three-run homer and the White Sox picked up a rare road win with a 9-2 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night.
The balk came in the second inning, when Chicago's Martín Maldonado picked up Thyago Vieira's pitches from second base and relayed them to Andrew Vaughn."It was a forced balk," Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said. "Maldonado is very crafty and he was giving signs. He was 9 for 9 — he didn't miss one. We picked up what his habit was, giving the sign to the hitter, and we just felt like it was too risky.
Vaughn followed with single, easily scoring Maldonado.DeJong put the White Sox hit a homer to the pool deck in right-center the following inning and Vaughn made it 4-1 with a two-run homer in the fifth. Sosa hit his second homer of the season the seventh inning and Lee hit his sixth in the ninth.
