Boston: Alejandro De Aza knocked in the game-winning RBI single in the 11th inning as the Chicago White Sox prevailed over their divisional foe the Detroit Tigers 4-3.

The White Sox took a 3-1 lead in the fourth inning thanks to a triple by Avisail Garcia but Detroit battled back to tie it in the eighth. 

Elsewhere, Adron Chambers singled in the bottom of the 14th inning to score Jon Jay from second base, and the Cardinals outlasted the Pittsburgh Pirates in a match that finished 4-3.
