Homers by George Bell and Jesse Barfield powered the Blue Jays to a 3-2 triumph over the White Sox. Bell connected with the bases empty in the fourth inning and Barfield drilled a round-tripper -- the first of his major league career -- in the fifth frame following a double by Greg Wells. Roy Lee Jackson choked off a Sox rally in the seventh inning and went on to notch his seventh save. [The Sporting News]
