Price (2-2) wouldn't need any more support. He struck out nine, and allowed four hits and two walks on 114 pitches.

Lopez picked up another two-out RBI in the fifth when he doubled in Matt Joyce and added a solo homer against Matt Thornton in the eighth to finish 3-for-4. Sam Fuld added four hits for Tampa Bay.

Jackson scattered 11 hits over seven innings and struck out three for Chicago (7-9), which has lost five consecutive games.
