White Sox edge Cubs again before sellout crowd at Cashman Field

Chicago left fielder Josh Kroeger went 3-for-4 with a double and drove in all four runs for the White Sox in their 4-3 exhibition victory over the Chicago Cubs on Thursday afternoon in front of a sellout crowd of 11,174 at Cashman Field.

The White Sox scored two runs in the fourth and two in the ninth to take a 4-0 lead, then held off the Cubs, who scored their three runs in the bottom of the ninth on a sacrifice fly by Ryan Theriot and a two-run pinch single by Las Vegas resident Reed Johnson.

The White Sox also clipped the Cubs 7-6 on Wednesday night at Cashman Field in front of a sellout crowd of 11,459. Paul Konerko, Wilson Betemit and Michael Restovich homered, and Ben Broussard drove in the winning run with an RBI single in the bottom of the ninth.
