Bruce Chen picks up his first career win over the White Sox, allowing one run on four hits as the Royals beat Chicago 4-1 to win the final two games of their series at U.S. Cellular Field.
Chen escaped a bases-loaded no-out jam in the fourth, allowing just the one run. Greg Holland threw two scoreless innings and Joakim Soria worked a 1-2-3 ninth for his 15th save.
Jeff Francoeur drove in two and Eric Hosmer homered for the third time in four games.
The Royals are back home tonight to open a four-game series with Detroit prior to the All-Star game.
