Garcia Homers, Abreu Has 2 More Hits For White Sox In Win
PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) — Avisail Garcia homered among his three hits and drove in four runs, Jose Abreu added to his sizzling spring training with two more hits and a Chicago White Sox split squad beat the Seattle Mariners 12-4 on Wednesday.
Abreu raised his spring training-leading batting average to .518 (29-for-56).
Melky Cabrera added a two-run double, Jeremy Farrell had four hits including a two-run home run and White Sox second baseman Carlos Sanchez, who will be on the opening-day roster after a very good spring at the plate, had four hits and two RBIs.
Gordon Beckham went 3 for 4 with two RBIs for the White Sox.
Chicago teed off on Paxton, who'll be in Seattle's rotation. Paxton allowed seven runs on 10 hits in 3 1-3 innings.
