SEATTLE, Sept. 18 (UPI) -- Ichiro Suzuki singled in Ryan Langerhans from second with one away in the 14th inning Thursday, giving Seattle a 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox.

Seattle was down to its final out when Hall hit his blast, his eighth of the season.

Chicago put two runners on with two out in the 12th, but failed to take advantage of the chance.

With Scott Linebrink (3-7) on the mound in the 14th, Langerhans delivered a one-out single to right. Linebrink hit pinch-hitter Kenji Johjima with a pitch and Suzuki followed with the game-winning base hit.

Shawn Kelley (5-3) worked the final two innings to get the win. He was Seattle's eighth pitcher of the contest.

Chicago missed a chance to gain ground on Detroit in the race for the American League Central title. The White Sox remained 6 1/2 games behind the Tigers.
