The Cleveland Guardians kept their season alive Thursday, defeating the Chicago White Sox 9-5 at Rate Field to force Game 5 of the American League Division Series.
Cleveland scored nine runs against an ineffective White Sox bullpen after Chicago used seven pitchers in the loss. Four different White Sox pitchers allowed runs, with Grant Taylor giving up four earned without recording an out.
José Ramírez had another big game for the Guardians, going 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBIs. Patrick Bailey came off the bench to go 2-for-3 with a round-tripper of his own for Cleveland.
