 CHICAGO (AP) - Dan Uggla homered leading off the ninth inning Tuesday night and the Florida Marlins rallied to beat the Chicago White Sox 7-5, rebounding after Dontrelle Willis was forced to leave after one inning with a tight left forearm.
Uggla's 13th homer was a high drive to left off Matt Thornton (2-3) and brought out a chorus of boos at U.S. Cellular Field. Thornton gave up two more singles before leaving and Aaron Boone added a sacrifice fly off Nick Masset. The White Sox have lost 18 of 23.
Armando Benitez (1-3) pitched one inning for the win. Kevin Gregg got his 12th save in 12 chances with a perfect ninth.
