Tanner Bibee throws a two-hitter as the Guardians beat the White Sox 4-0

CLEVELAND (AP) — Tanner Bibee threw a two-hitter for Cleveland’s first complete-game shutout in six years, and David Fry and Angel Martínez homered in the Guardians’ 4-0 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Friday night.

Bibee (10-11) struck out 10 and didn’t issue a walk in going the distance for a second time this season. His first career shutout was the first by a Cleveland pitcher in a nine-inning game since Zach Plesac against the Angels on Sept. 10, 2019.

Bibee gave up back-to-back singles to Chase Meidroth and Will Robertson with one out in the third before Mike Tauchman grounded into a double play. He allowed two baserunners from there — on an error in the sixth and a hit batter in the ninth.

Cleveland didn’t have a hit off Martín Pérez until Fry hit his eighth home run — a two-out shot to left field for a 1-0 lead in the fourth.

Jhonkensy Noel singled with one out in the fifth and scored on a two-out single by Austin Hedges for a 2-0 lead. Nolan Jones had an RBI single after Gabriel Arias doubled with two outs to make it 3-0. Martínez hit his 11th homer off Steven Wilson in the eighth to cap the scoring.

Pérez (1-5) allowed three runs on four hits in 6 2/3 innings. He hasn’t won since March, when he pitched six hitless innings in his first start, a 9-0 win over the Twins. He is 0-4 in six starts since missing four months with left elbow inflammation.

White Sox rookie catcher Kyle Teel went 0 for 4 to end a 20-game on-base streak.

Cleveland (76-71) has won seven of eight.
