Tim Elko hit a three-run homer — his first hit in the major leagues — in the sixth inning to help the Chicago White Sox beat the Miami Marlins 4-2.

Tim Elko drilled a go-ahead, three-run home run in the sixth inning for his first career hit and Mike Vasil pitched effectively in relief to boost the Chicago White Sox to a 4-2 win against the visiting Miami Marlins on Sunday. Chicago benefited from timely hitting and a strong bullpen to capture its second straight home series.

Tim Elko’s first big league hit was a homer. And a decisive one at that. Elko’s three-run shot in the bottom of the sixth inning put the Chicago White Sox ahead to stay.
