Kyle Teel went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and the Chicago White Sox took the three-game series against the visiting San Francisco Giants with a 5-2 win on Sunday.
White Sox starter Jonathan Cannon, out since June 3 because of a back strain, gave up one run on three hits, walked three and struck out four in three innings in his return.
Justin Verlander was effective through six frames, with one run on five hits and two walks. He fanned three for the Giants, who have dropped five of six.
Down by one in the seventh inning, Chicago took advantage of Verlander's exit to take a 5-2 lead.
Mike Tauchman and Chase Meidroth each singled off reliever Erik Miller (4-1), with Austin Slater pinch-running for Tauchman. After the pair advanced on a groundout, the Giants swapped Miller for Ryan Walker, who walked Miguel Vargas to load the bases.
Teel's double scored Slater and Meidroth to make it 3-2. Then, with Lenyn Sosa at the plate, a balk by Walker allowed Vargas to come in for a 4-2 advantage, and Sosa singled to drive in Teel.
San Francisco threatened in the top of the eighth against reliever Tyler Gilbert (2-1) when they had the bases loaded with one out, but Heliot Ramos grounded into a double play to end the inning.
The visitors broke a 1-1 tie in the fifth off reliever Jordan Leasure. Rafael Devers and Wilmer Flores each walked, and Mike Yastrzemski singled to load the bases. Leasure gave up another walk to Willy Adames, pushing Devers in to make it 2-1.
The White Sox took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Tauchman led off with a double, went to third on a groundout and scored on Andrew Benintendi's sacrifice fly.
The Giants tied it in the second when Christian Koss scored on a double by Patrick Bailey.
San Francisco right-hander Carson Seymour made his major league debut in the eighth inning, giving up two hits in the frame.
