Damon, Porcello help Tigers down White Sox

Baseball Betting Lines

09/09/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Johnny Damon went 4-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored, and Rick Porcello threw eight strong frames as the Tigers handed the White Sox a third straight loss, 6-3, to close out a four-game series.

Ryan Raburn and Jhonny Peralta each drove in a pair and Will Rhymes had three hits and two runs scored for Detroit, which won the final three games in the set to put Chicago further back in the American League Central race.

The White Sox, despite a relatively successful 7-3 road trip, now trail the idle Minnesota Twins by six games heading into a nine-game homestand

Porcello (9-11) won a fourth straight start, scattering four hits and three runs while striking out three and walking none in the win.

Gavin Floyd (10-12) was knocked around for 13 hits -- all singles -- while five of the six runs he allowed in six-plus innings were earned. Alex Rios hit a two-run homer in defeat.

The Tigers went right to work in the top of the first, with Austin Jackson leading off with a walk, advancing to second on Rhymes' single and scoring on Damon's line drive base hit to right.

Rhymes scored on a double-play ball off the bat of Raburn, then singled to open the third and came around on another Raburn groundout. A Peralta single later in the inning plated Damon for a 4-0 cushion.

Porcello set down the first 10 batters he saw before Omar Vizquel singled in front of Rios' home run to left.

Detroit got a run back on Raburn's two-out, bases-loaded single in the bottom half, and it stayed 5-2 until the seventh, when Paul Konerko led off the away half with a hit and eventually raced home on a wild pitch.

Again the Tigers answered in their turn, as Peralta's sacrifice fly to the warning track in left knocked in Damon.

Ryan Perry relieved the effective Porcello in the ninth and survived a leadoff walk to notch his second save of the season.
