Alex Gordon went 2-for-4 with an RBI and Kila Ka'aihue collected three hits to back starter Kyle Davies (8-9), who went six innings, yielding only one run on five hits with two walks and five strikeouts.
Chisox starter Edwin Jackson (3-1) was rocked for 13 hits and six runs in five-plus innings, absorbing his first loss since coming to Chicago from the Arizona Diamondbacks at the trade deadline.
