Uribe's homer in the 13th helps White Sox defeat Indians

<h3>CHI WHITE SOX 6, CLEVELAND 4 (13 INNINGS)</h3>CHICAGO (Ticker) -- After two earlier late-inning comebacks,the Chicago White Sox finally outlasted the Cleveland Indians.

Juan Uribe atoned for an earlier error by hitting a game-winningtwo-run homer off reliever Aaron Fultz in the 13th inning asthe White Sox posted a 6-4 victory over the Indians onWednesday.


A.J. Pierzynski and Jermaine Dye each hit game-tying solo homersfor Chicago, which has won five of six.


Cleveland lost for the first time in four games and saw its leadin the American League Central remain at one-half game in frontof the Detroit Tigers, who lost, 7-1, to the Tampa Bay DevilRays earlier Wednesday.


With one out in the bottom of the 13th, Scott Podsednik singledto left off Fultz (3-2) before Uribe hit a 1-0 offering over thewall in center to win the game.


Jose Contreras (6-14), who was making his first reliefappearance since September 27, 2003 when he was a member of theNew York Yankees, earned the victory after allowing a run andtwo hits in two innings. It was his first victory in nineappearances - eight starts - since being relegated to bullpenduty after his last outing.


After the Indians took a 4-3 lead in the top of the 12th whenshortstop Uribe dropped a popup to short left field struck byKenny Lofton, allowing pinch runner Josh Barfield to score,Pierzynski led off the bottom of the 12th by smashing a 1-2pitch from Cleveland closer Joe Borowski deep into the seats inright.


Chicago also rallied in the eighth, when Dye hammered a 2-2pitch from reliever Rafael Betancourt into the seats in left forhis 23rd homer to knot the contest at 3-3.


That blast mitigated a strong start by Cleveland starter C.C.Sabathia, who was going for his major league-leading 15thvictory. The burly lefthander yielded two runs, six hits andthree walks in seven innings. Chicago Cubs ace Carlos Zambranowas also going for his 15th victory Wednesday, but lost to theHouston Astros.


Cleveland scored twice off Chicago starter Jon Garland in thesixth to take a 3-2 lead. Pinch hitter Jason Michaels, subbingfor Travis Hafner who left the game with left knee tightness,lined a single to right field, scoring Asdrubal Cabrera to tiethe game at 2-2. Jhonny Peralta then punched an opposite fieldbase hit to right to give the indians a 3-2 lead.


Garland allowed three runs and six hits, while striking out fivein seven innings.
