Guerrero and Bichette homer as the Blue Jays beat the White Sox 7-1

TORONTO (AP) — Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette homered, helping José Berríos and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the lowly Chicago White Sox 7-1 on Saturday.

Berríos surrendered an unearned run and two hits in a season-high 7 2/3 innings. The right-hander struck out five and walked three in his first win since May 29.

The last-place White Sox finished with two hits in their ninth loss in 10 games. They dropped to 8-32 on the road this year.

Davis Schneider had two hits and three RBIs as Toronto bounced back nicely from Friday’s 7-1 loss in the series opener.

The crowd of 41,488 rose for a standing ovation when Berríos (3-3) exited after walking Ryan Noda. The lengthy start was a welcome one for a Toronto bullpen that used six relievers to cover seven innings Friday.

Ahead 1-0 on Bichette’s game-opening homer, Toronto used five singles to add three more runs in the second inning. George Springer scored on a throwing error by right fielder Austin Slater, and Nathan Lukes and Schneider each had run-scoring hits.

Chicago’s Miguel Vargas tripled and scored on Guerrero's throwing error in the top of the sixth, but the Blue Jays slugger restored Toronto’s four-run cushion with a two-out homer in the seventh, his 10th.

White Sox right-hander Aaron Civale (1-4) allowed five runs and nine hits in seven innings.

Bichette went deep on Civale’s first pitch for his third leadoff homer this season and the sixth of his career.

Bichette leads the Blue Jays with 11 home runs, including three in the past five games.

Right-hander Chris Bassitt (2-3, 3.81 ERA) is expected to start for the Blue Jays in Sunday’s series finale against White Sox right-hander Adrian Houser (2-2, 2.15 ERA).

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s motorcade took a different route than usual to the airport as he was departing Florida on Sunday due to a “suspicious object,” according to the White House.

The object, which the White House did not describe, was discovered during security sweeps in advance of Trump’s arrival at Palm Beach International Airport.

“A further investigation was warranted and the presidential motorcade route was adjusted accordingly,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement Sunday.

The president, when asked about the package by reporters, said, “I know nothing about it.”

Trump left his Palm Beach, Florida, club, Mar-a-Lago, around 6:20 p.m. for the roughly 10-minute drive to the airport, but took a circular route around the city to get there.

During the drive, police officers on motorcycles created a moving blockade for the motorcade, at one point almost colliding with the vans that accompanied Trump.

Air Force One was parked on the opposite side of the airport from where it is usually located and the lights outside the plane were turned off.

Anthony Guglielmi, the spokesman for U.S. Secret Service, said the secondary route was taken just as a precaution and that “that is standard protocol.”
