CHICAGO (AP) — Elly De La Cruz hit a three-run drive for his fourth homer in his last four games, helping Andrew Abbott and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago White Sox 11-1 on Friday night. Tyler Stephenson also homered for Cincinnati, which had dropped three of four. Christian Encarnacion-Strand and Santiago Espinal each had two hits and three RBIs, and Jonathan India walked four times from the leadoff spot. Abbott (1-1) pitched seven innings of one-run ball in Cincinnati’s longest start so far this season. The left-hander struck out three and walked none. “I was able to get ahead of guys. I was able to get in. I was able to execute off-speed,” Abbott said. “Just probably the best collective effort in a game I’ve had this year to this point.” Chicago finished with four hits in its seventh loss in eight games. It has scored just 30 runs during its 2-11 start. |
