DETROIT, Sept. 8 (UPI) -- Jeremy Bonderman allowed three hits and struck out eight over eight innings Wednesday, leading the Detroit Tigers to a 5-1 decision over the Chicago White Sox.
Bonderman (8-9) equaled his longest outing of the season and won for the second time in his last six appearances. He had missed a start two weeks ago because of inflammation in his rib cage.

Phil Coke relieved Bonderman in the ninth and gave up a hit in a non-save situation.
The loss went to John Danks (13-10), who surrendered all five runs in six innings on eight hits. Just two of the runs were earned.
