CHICAGO, Aug. 26 (UPI) -- Tyler Flowers belted a go-ahead, two-run homer in the final inning Sunday in the Chicago White Sox's rain-shortened, come-from-behind 4-3 win over Seattle.

With the rain falling in Chicago and the White Sox trailing 3-2 in the bottom of the seventh inning, Jordan Danks drew a walk from Kevin Millwood (4-11) and Flowers followed by driving an 0-1 pitch over the center field fence.

After two more hitters, the game -- which had earlier gone through a lengthy delay -- was held up again and eventually called, handing the American League Central-leading Chisox their sixth straight win.

The rally made a winner of Nate Jones (7-0), who hurled a scoreless top of the seventh.

Millwood went 6 2/3 innings, yielding four runs (three earned) on seven hits.

Jesus Montero drove in the only run for Seattle, which lost for the 24th time in 28 meetings with the White Sox.
