CHICAGO (AP) — Tristan Peters capped a two-run 10th inning with an RBI single and the Chicago White Sox beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 in a wild home opener on Friday.
Toronto’s Andrés Giménez tied at 3 in the eighth with a two-run homer against Jordan Leasure. The Blue Jays went ahead with two outs in the 10th when Miguel Vargas’ throw to first on George Springer’s grounder pulled Munetaka Murakami off the bag, allowing Davis Schneider to score from third.
The call was upheld after a review, but the White Sox answered in the bottom half against Jeff Hoffman (1-1).
They had Vargas on third with two outs when catcher Tyler Heineman threw wildly to first on Derek Hill’s bunt single, allowing the tying run to come in. Heineman had just come in after the previous batter, Austin Hays, fouled a pitch off Alejandro Kirk’s left thumb. Kirk, a two-time All-Star, was going for X-rays after the game.
Hill took second on the errant throw and came around when Peters lined a single to right, giving the White Sox just their second win in seven games this season.
Hays gave Chicago a 3-1 lead in the third with a two-run single. Sean Burke dominated over six innings after Grant Taylor retired the game’s first three batters. Seranthony Domínguez (1-1) came on with two outs in the ninth and a runner on second. He struck out Kazuma Okamoto and then worked the 10th.
Blue Jays starter Dylan Cease lasted 4 1/3 innings against his former team. The right-hander allowed three runs — two earned — and five hits in his second start at Rate Field since a trade to San Diego before the 2024 season. He also mishandled a throw covering first base in the first inning as the White Sox took a 1-0 lead.
Also Friday, the Blue Jays agreed to terms with left-hander Patrick Corbin on a one-year contract worth US$1,000,000. He was optioned to the single-A Dunedin Blue Jays roster.
