ChiSox's Thome passes Jackson on HR list in loss

Brian Roberts hit a go-ahead two-run home run in the eighth inning and had a solo shot in the third, leading the Baltimore Orioles to a 5-1 win over the Chicago White Sox on Friday night. Orioles starter Jeremy Guthrie (8-12), who lost his previous four decisions, allowed just one run on six hits in seven innings to record his first victory since July 19, when he held the White Sox to two runs in eight innings.
