White Sox Win, 8-7, at Arizona
Arizona third baseman Pete Ward had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Ward went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice, even as Chicago (A) beat the Diamondbacks, 8-7. Nathan Eovaldi picked up the win, improving his season record to 12-6. He struck out 5 in 6.1 innings. Frank Francisco recorded his 29th save for Chicago (A).

Chicago (A) used the timely hitting of Bryce Harper to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the White Sox on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Harper said.

Chicago (A) bumps their record to 71-67 with the win.
