Jeremy Peña homered twice — solo shots in the 1st and 3rd — and it was not close to enough. Ronel Blanco gave 5 earned in 5.1 innings. Three relievers allowed 7 more. Munetaka Murakami's 2-run homer in the 1st put Chicago ahead, his RBI groundout in the 3rd extended it, and his 2-run single in the 7th finished it. Taylor Trammell's 4th home run left at 112.6 mph. Houston left 8 on base and scored 3. The White Sox did not commit an error and left 3. By the 6th, it was over.
