OAKLAND, Calif., May 14 (UPI) -- Tyson Ross held the White Sox to two runs over 7 1/3 innings Saturday and the Oakland Athletics tamed Chicago 6-2.

Ross (3-2), who moved into the A's rotation last month when Dallas Braden went on the disabled list, yielded six hits and a walk, and struck out six.

David De Jesus smacked a two-run triple to give Oakland a 4-0 lead and Kurt Suzuki contributed an RBI as the A's evened their three-game series with the White Sox at one win apiece.

Paul Konerko stroked a two-run homer in the sixth.

Chisox starter Gavin Floyd (4-3) was touched for five runs on nine hits over 4 1/3 frames.
