After going 5-1 on a road trip to Milwaukee and Oakland last week, the White Sox reached the .500 mark for the first time since Opening Day and were seemingly positioned for continued success.

The Sox found a way to beat the Indians and ace Corey Kluber on Monday in the opener of a seven-game homestand.

But the White Sox have taken two steps back, dropping consecutive games to Cleveland.

At U.S. Cellular Field Wednesday night, the Sox fell to the Indians 4-3.

Scoring runs has been the big problem in the first three games of the series. The Sox won Monday 2-1 in 10 innings before falling 3-1 Tuesday.

On Wednesday, they had to settle for solo home runs from Adam Eaton and Conor Gillaspie and Alexei Ramirez' run-scoring infield single in the ninth.

Carlos Rodon made his third start of the season, and the 22-year-old rookie kept the White Sox in the game while allowing 1 run on 4 hits in 6 innings.
