ATLANTA — Luis Robert Jr. homered to spark a six-run fourth inning and the White Sox beat the Atlanta Braves 13-9 on Monday night.
Robert followed Andrew Benintendi's leadoff single against a struggling Spencer Strider with his 13th homer to put Chicago up 3-0. Mike Tauchman drove in two with a bases-loaded double, and Lenyn Sosa's two-out RBI single made it 7-0.
Brooks Baldwin hit his eighth home run, a leadoff shot in the third to give Chicago the lead. Sosa hit his 17th homer, a three-run drive off Austin Cox in the sixth for a 10-1 advantage. Kyle Teel and Benintendi both had four of Chicago's 19 hits.
Yoendrys Gómez (3-1) allowed four runs in five innings for the win in his second career start. Gra
