Andrew Benintendi hit a two-run home run in the 10th inning for his second homer of the game and the season, giving the Chicago White Sox an 8-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday night. Benintendi had three hits and six RBIs to help Chicago win its second straight and for just the fifth time this season. Chicago's 5-22 start is its worst in 27 games. Benintendi ended it by smacking the first pitch he saw from Phil Maton (0-2) deep over the right-center wall for the first walk-off shot in his nine-year career.
