Jorge Orta extended his batting streak to 10 games with a double and triple, knocking in two runs and scoring two, to pace the White Sox to a 5-2 victory over the Rangers. Orta, after drawing a walk and crossing the plate in the first inning, hit his double in the fifth to break a 1-1 tie, driving in Brian Downing, who had singled and reached third on an error.
