He tossed 7 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 10 and fanning 5. Chicago is now 52-59. Cleveland is 64-47.

Eddie Howard, who is a two-time All-Star, helped out the Chicago cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring double. For the game, the catcher was 2 for 3 with a double.

Gaines said afterward that "winning, obviously, is the main objective."
