<p>CHICAGO &mdash; Lucas Giolito struck out 12 and the Chicago White Sox sent Baltimore to its 13th straight loss, beating the Orioles 3-1 Sunday.</p>
<p>The Orioles matched their worst skid since 2009. Baltimore’s all-time longest losing streak was 21 in a row in 1988.</p>
<p>Baltimore has been swept in four consecutive series and dropped 20 of 22 overall.</p>
<p>Nick Madrigal hit a tiebreaking triple in the seventh inning as the White Sox completed a four-game sweep. The AL Centrals have won six of seven and climbed a season-high 12 games over .500.</p>
<p>Giolito (5-4) allowed a run, three hits and three walks in seven innings. His 12 strikeouts were one shy of his career high.</p>
<p>The Orioles loaded the bases against Giolito in the sixth with a bunt single and two walks before Anthony Santander struck out and Maikel Franco fouled out. Baltimore scored just seven runs in the series.</p>
<p>Liam Hendricks pitched a perfect ninth for his 13th save and third in three games.</p>
<p>It was 1-all in the seventh when Tim Anderson singled, stole second, took third on a wild pickoff throw by Dillon Tate (0-3) and scored on Madrigal’s triple. Yoán Moncada followed with an RBI single.</p>
<p>Anderson, Madrigal and Moncada had two hits apiece. DJ Stewart homered and Cedric Mullins had two hits for the Orioles.</p>
<p>Stewart homered off Giolito in the third.</p>
<p>Billy Hamilton hit a solo shot off Keegan Akin in the Chicago third. It was the second time in Hamilton’s career he has homered in back-to-back games, the previous time coming in 2014.</p>
<p>Hamilton’s last multi-homer season was 2018, when he hit four with Cincinnati. In 870 career games, the speedster has 24 homers.</p>
<p>Akin allowed a run and five hits in 4 2/3 innings in his first start of the season.</p>
<p>Adam Plutko replaced Akin and walked José Abreu to load the bases in the fifth. Yermín Mercedes grounded out to end the inning.</p>
<p>TRAINER’S ROOM</p>
<p>Orioles: IB Trey Mancini (bruised right elbow) returned to the lineup. He was hit by a pitch Thursday. … OF/1B Ryan Mountcastle (left hand) was available off the bench. His hand remains sore, manager Brandon Hyde said. … RHP Hunter Harvey (left oblique strain) is eligible to come off the IL Monday but will likely make another rehab appearance, Hyde said.</p>
<p>White Sox: OF Adam Eaton (hamstring) will likely play in one or both games of Monday’s doubleheader against Cleveland, manager Tony La Russa said. Eaton has been out since Wednesday. … RHP Michael Kopech (left hamstring) was expected to rejoin the team Sunday after going on the bereavement list Thursday.</p>
<p>UP NEXT</p>
<p>Orioles: RHP Jorge López is scheduled to start Monday to begin a three-game series against visiting Minnesota and RHP José Berríos (5-2, 3.67). He also faced the Twins in his last start, giving up three runs in six innings.</p>
<p>White Sox: LHP Carlos Rodón (5-2, 1.29) will start a game of Monday’s doubleheader at Cleveland to open a four-game series. Rodón threw a no-hitter against the Indians April 14. RHP Triston McKenzie (1-3, 5.94) is expected to start a game for the Indians. The teams had yet to announce the other starters.</p>
