CHICAGO (AP) — Mike Tauchman drove in Colson Montgomery with an infield single in the 11th inning, and the Chicago White Sox beat the Cleveland Guardians 5-4 on Friday night to salvage a doubleheader split.

Batting with runners on the corners and one out, Tauchman's tapper rolled under Kolby Allard's glove. Montgomery scampered home as Allard (2-1) went down to one knee in frustration.

Chicago trailed 4-3 before Josh Rojas hit a sacrifice fly off Paul Sewald right before it started to rain in the eighth.

Mike Vasil (4-3) pitched three innings for the win. He escaped a bases-loaded jam in the 10th and 11th in the wet weather, delighting what was left of a crowd of 25,084.

Cleveland had won four straight, including a 4-2 victory in the first game of the day. The Guardians went 2 for 16 with runners in scoring position and stranded 14 baserunners in the nightcap.

José Ramírez hit a two-run homer for Cleveland in the second game. Daniel Schneemann doubled and scored, and he also made an outstanding diving catch on Montgomery's liner to second in the fourth.

Lenyn Sosa hit solo drives in the first and the fifth against Gavin Williams, helping Chicago take a 3-2 lead. It was Sosa's second career multihomer game after he also went deep twice on June 25 against Arizona.

Cleveland tied it at 3 in the sixth. After Bo Naylor fouled out on a bunt attempt with runners on the corners, Brayan Rocchio drove in Schneemann with a double to left off Jordan Leasure.

Cleveland's Kyle Manzardo bounced into an inning-ending double play against Vasil in the 11th.

The White Sox improved to 1-4 against the Guardians in the season series.

Tanner Bibee (4-9, 4.35 ERA) pitches for Cleveland on Saturday, and fellow right-hander Sean Burke (4-8, 4.40 ERA) starts for Chicago.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Harrison Reed scored a spectacular goal in stoppage time to earn Fulham a 2-2 draw with Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday.

The substitute let fly from around 25 meters (yards) to beat Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson in the seventh minute of time added on at Craven Cottage.

Liverpool fans were still celebrating after Cody Gakpo had scored what looked like a late winner in the 94th. But they were left stunned by Reed's near instant response once play resumed.

Fulham led 1-0 at halftime through Harry Wilson, who burst through and fired low into the far corner. Florian Wirtz leveled in the 57th.

The result saw defending champion Liverpool drop yet more points in what has been a difficult second campaign for coach Arne Slot.

The Merseyside club is fourth in the standings - 14 points behind first-placed Arsenal.

Matheus Cunha rescued a point for Manchester United in a 1-1 draw at Leeds.

The Brazil forward equalized for United after U.S. international Brenden Aaronson put Leeds in front in the second half at Elland Road.

Aaronson opened the scoring in the 62nd, but Cunha leveled three minutes later. Cunha was close to firing a winner late in the match with a curling shot from outside the box that struck the outside of the post.

United has lost just two of its last 14 games in the league, but six draws during that run have seen Ruben Amorim's team struggle to keep pace with the top three in the standings.

“This year I think we are in control of the games more often than last year,” Amorim told TNT Sports. “So it was a good game, but of course (I am) a little bit frustrated not to win.”

Leeds is unbeaten in seven games and went ahead when Aaronson raced past United defender Ayden Heaven to shoot low into the far corner.

Cunha scored his third goal in his last five games when latching onto a pass from substitute Joshua Zirkzee and sliding a shot past Leeds goalkeeper Lucas Perri.

United has had to cope without injured inspirational captain Bruno Fernandes over the festive period as well as key forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo, who are playing at the Africa Cup of Nations. Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo are also out with injuries.

But Amorim suggested Fernandes and Mount could be close to returning.

Igor Thiago hit a hat trick in Brentford's 4-2 win at Everton.

The Brazilian forward has scored 14 goals in the league this season, behind only Manchester City's Erling Haaland.

Newcastle beat Crystal Palace 2-0 and Tottenham was denied victory at home to Sunderland when Brian Brobbey scored an 80th-minute equalizer for a 1-1 draw.
