Tigers win 5th straight

Nicholas Castellanos homered and Blaine Hardy pitched one-run ball into the sixth, leading the Detroit Tigers over the Chicago White Sox 3-1 on Sunday for their fifth straight win. Jose Iglesias added an RBI single as Detroit improved to 8-1 against the White Sox this season, including 6-0 at Guaranteed Rate Field. Matt Davidson hit his 12th homer and Kevan Smith had two hits for Chicago, which has dropped four straight. Castellanos homered twice on Saturday and connected again in his first at-bat Sunday. Before Saturday, he was mired in a 1-for-21 slump over the previous five games. Hardy (3-1) allowed one run on six hits in 5 1/3 innings. He has given up two runs or less in six of his seven starts. With closer Shane Greene unavailable after pitching four straight days, Joe Jimenez struck out the side in the ninth for his second save. White Sox starter James Shields (2-8) allowed three runs on six hits in six-plus innings.
