Cleveland ? Todd Ritchie made one bad pitch in eight innings Tuesday night as the Chicago White Sox handed Cleveland its first home loss this season with a 5-1 victory over the Indians.

Gil hit solo shots in the second and fourth innings against Frank Castillo (1-1), then added an RBI single in the fifth against Rolando Arrojo.
