The Chicago White Sox went deep four times and scored a season-high in runs before surviving a late Atlanta rally to beat the Braves 13-9 on Monday and snap a four-game losing skid.
Chicago led 13-5 entering the eighth when Atlanta scored four times and had the bases loaded with the tying run at the plate. Eli White, who entered the game earlier in the inning as a pinch-runner for Michael Harris, struck out to end the threat.
Brooks Baldwin, Luis Robert Jr., Lenyn Sosa and Kyle Teel each hit home runs to spark the season-high 19-hit attack. Teel and Benintendi each had four hits.
Atlanta's Harris had four hits, including a two-run homer, and Jurickson Profar added a pair of home runs with five RBIs. Profar and Matt Olson both had three of the Braves' 15 hits.Yoendrys Gomez (3-1) pitched five innings and allowed four runs -- three earned -- on seven hits, one walk and three strikeouts in his second career start.
Atlanta starter Spencer Strider (5-11) took his third straight loss. He worked a season-low three innings and allowed seven runs on 10 hits -- two of them home runs -- with one walk and two strikeouts. Strider has allowed seven homers over his last three starts.
The White Sox got a run in the third inning when Baldwin hit his eighth home run, a solo shot that reached the front of the seats in left-center field.
Chicago went deep against Strider again in the fourth inning. Benintendi singled and Robert followed with a two-run shot into the White Sox' bullpen in left field.
The White Sox went on to score six runs in the fourth to take a 7-0 lead. Mike Tauchman doubled in two runs to knock Strider out of the game. Miguel Vargas added a sacrifice fly and Sosa singled in another run.
Chicago added a three-run homer from Sosa in the sixth inning against reliever Austin Cox, and a solo shot from Teel against Daysbel Hernandez in the seventh.
