CHICAGO (AP) – Lucas Giolito scored three goals, Jose Abreu started a three-pointer and the Chicago White Sox defeated the Houston Astros 10-1 on Saturday night.

Anderson had three tackles in the AL division leaders ’meeting, and Burger’s seventh single was his first professional homer.
Jolito (8-6) hit eight shots and hit no one when throwing 107 yards in his fifth full-time game. After Michael Brantley doubled with one performance in the first, Jolito retired 22 consecutive times until Ibrahim Toro joined with eight performances in the eighth.
None of Houston’s first 16 games against Giolito hit the ground running. By the time Jose Altouve hit the ball to third-seeded basketball player Joan Moncada for the final from Houston to sixth, everyone was on top of the flying balls.
Astros right-back Jake Odorizzi (3-5) allowed four runs and six assists in 3 1/3 innings. He entered with 1.04 ERA, his five previous appearances.
Collins and Anderson went out on the field in a row from Odoris with a third. Both homers may have been augmented by the moderate wind that blew.
The Cubs won 6-0 with a two-set lead from Brandon Bielac in the fifth, and Homer’s 16-yard touchdown run was a three-round shot to Joe Smith in the sixth.
MOVEMENT
Homer Abreu was number 214 for his position and moved him to fourth place with Carlton Fisk on the business franchise list.
STAY ON THE SOUTH SIDE
White Right Sox and Stars Lance Lynn agreed to a two-year contract worth $ 38 million. Lynn, 34, will start 9-3 with an AL-best 1.99 ERA at 16 in her first season with Chicago.
“If you know where you want to be, there’s no point in joining a free agency,” Lynn said. “They gathered a winner here. That’s what I want to be a part of and help it get to the top of the championship. ”
Lynn will earn $ 18.5 million in the next two seasons. The White Sox have $ 18 million for 2024 with a purchase of $ 1 million.
