Cueto pitches Reds past White Sox 10-4

CHICAGO -- Johnny Cueto pitched into the ninth inning in his longest start of the year, and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago White Sox 10-4 on Saturday in the opener of a traditional doubleheader.
Cueto (3-3) was working on a four-hitter before he was pulled with one out in Chicago's three-run ninth. J.J. Hoover finished for Cincinnati, which has won three of four.
Cueto allowed six hits, struck out seven and walked two, bouncing back from a loss at Atlanta last Sunday. The right-hander was charged with five runs and nine hits in six innings against the Braves after lasting at least seven innings in his first five starts of the year.
Skip Schumaker had three hits and two RBIs as Cincinnati improved to 4-14 against Chicago with its first road win against the White Sox since a 7-5 victory on June 25, 1998.
The participants in the 1919 World Series hadn't played each other since the White Sox got two wins in a three-game set in June 2009.
The White Sox lost right-hander Hector Noesi to a bruised lower back in the second inning of the makeup game for Friday night's rainout. Noesi was hit by a two-out comebacker off the bat of Billy Hamilton and departed after trying a couple of warmup pitches.
Alexei Ramirez hit career homer No. 100 in the seventh for the White Sox, and Jose Abreu connected for a 441-foot drive in the ninth.
Playing without 2010 NL MVP Joey Votto, who served a one-game suspension for making contact with an umpire, the Reds jumped in front with two runs in the sixth against Scott Carroll (0-1) in the sixth. Zack Cozart drove in a run with a fielder's choice and Schumaker added a two-out RBI double.
Hamilton's 15th steal helped set up Jay Bruce's run-scoring grounder in the seventh, and Marlon Byrd connected for a three-run shot in Cincinnati's seven-run ninth. Byrd has homered in four of his last five games.
GONE
White Sox hitting coach Todd Steverson was ejected by plate umpire John Hirschbeck after Tyler Flowers and Micah Johnson each took a called third strike in the second inning. It was the first career ejection for Steverson.
WORTH NOTING
RHPs Pedro Villarreal of the Reds and Chris Beck of the White Sox will be promoted from the minors to serve as the 26th player for their respective clubs for the second game of the doubleheader. Villarreal pitched two scoreless innings against the Cubs on April 15 in his only appearance of the year with Cincinnati. Beck is looking for his major league debut.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Reds: Cozart returned to the lineup after missing three games with left wrist and right hand injuries.
White Sox: Abreu was shaken up after he fouled a ball off his lower left leg in the first, but stayed in the game.
UP NEXT
White Sox LHP Carlos Rodon (0-0, 2.84 ERA) and Reds RHP Jason Marquis (3-1, 5.22 ERA) face off in the second game. Rodon is making his first major league start, and Marquis is 3-0 with a 4.66 ERA in his last three outings.
