José Abreu hit his seventh homer in five games, Dallas Keuchel pitched six dominant innings, and the surging Chicago White Sox pounded the Pittsburgh Pirates 10-3 for their ninth win in 10 games. 

Abreu’s 12th home run was Chicago’s fourth of the game and broke it open. Eloy Jiménez, Danny Mendick and Edwin Encarnacion also homered for Chicago, which leads the AL with 60 home runs. 

Keuchel (5-2) allowed two runs on four hits and struck out seven in his third straight win. 

Trevor Williams (1-5) took the loss and Jacob Stallings had a two-run single and Erik González hit a solo homer for Pittsburgh.

The loss dropped the Pirates to 7-19 on the season.

The team will head to St. Louis to play a doubleheader against the Cardinals on Thursday, with Game One slated for 3:15 p.m.
