Steven Kwan had a homer and three singles and drove in four runs to help the Cleveland Guardians complete a three-game sweep and hand the Chicago White Sox their eighth straight loss with a 6-1 victory on Thursday.
Kwan singled leading off the first and scored on Kyle Manzardo’s fourth home run of the season for a 2-1 lead, and the Guardians never trailed again. The White Sox, winless in April, dropped to 2-10 after losing a post-1900-record 121 games last year.
Brayan Rocchio doubled leading off the third and Kwan hit his second home run on the next pitch for a 4-1 lead. Kwan added run-scoring singles his next two times up to go 4 for 5.
Gavin Williams (1-0) allowed one run on three hits and two walks, striking out seven in five innings. Jakob Junis and Joey Cantillo both pitched two scoreless innings.
