White Sox Win at Seattle, 4-2
Safeco Field was the site of a competitive game between the Seattle Mariners and Chicago White Sox.

Chicago beat Seattle on the strength of starter Xenophon Valvis's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 4-2. Valvis, now 14-1, was the winner. In 7.2 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 9, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. Zach Ault was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 19 of 20 save opportunities.

Chicago used a well-timed hit by Dieter Knoops to capture the win. The shortstop socked a run-scoring double in the top of the second inning to put the White Sox ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

After the game, Chicago manager Jake Turnbull applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.

Chicago, at 57-32, is 13½ games up in the American League Central Division.
