    Alexei Ramirez did enough at the plate to help a Chicago White Sox team struggling with its defense lately.

    Ramirez hit his second homer of the game with two outs in the 10th inning to lift the White Sox to a 6-5 win over the Athletics on Tuesday night. Ramirez's blast came one night after Oakland beat Chicago 2-1 in 10 innings on Kurt Suzuki's extra-inning home run.

    "We needed this win bad," said White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen. "After the loss last night, we bounced back and played a great game."

    Ramirez also hit a three-run shot in the second inning and scored a run after drawing a walk in the sixth.

    "I feel really happy with the work I did," Ramirez said through an interpreter. "I'm especially happy that we won the game."
