Miguel Olivo drove in a career-high six runs Friday with the help of a pair of two-run homers, carrying Kansas City to an 11-0 rout of the Chicago White Sox. Luke Hochevar (7-10) coasted to his second complete game and the first shutout of his three-year major league career. Olivo drew a bases-loaded walk in the third, hit his first two-run homer in the fourth, delivered a sacrifice fly in the seventh and homered again in the eighth.

Dewayne Wise singled home Scott Podsednik from second with two out in the ninth Thursday, lifting the Chicago White Sox past the New York Yankees 3-2.

The Yankees lost for only the third time in 14 contests since the All-Star break and saw their lead over Boston in the American League East reduced to three games. Chicago starter Gavin Floyd allowed a run on four hits over 7 2/3 innings.
