White Sox 8, Cubs 7

Gordon's gold: Sox rookie Gordon Beckham hammered Jose Ascanio's first pitch to right-center field with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning to decide the outcome.

Long time ago: Saturday was the White Sox' first walk-off win vs. the Cubs since June 28, 2003, when D'Angelo Jimenez delivered with an RBI single off Mike Remlinger.

Home-less: Sox starter Mark Buehrle pitched 52 innings and allowed 5 runs (3 earned) on 6 hits. Over his last three starts at the Cell, the lefty has yielded 12 earned runs in 20 innings.

Earning power: The White Sox allowed 3 more unearned runs Saturday and now lead the AL with 43.
