White Sox starter Chris Sale improved to 2-0 on Saturday with six strong innings against the Tigers.
Sale allowed two runs on four hits and struck out six to earn the victory.
J.D. Martinez connected for a solo homer off Sale.
"Man, yeah, It really takes all the pressure off," Sale said about his run support. "You still have to perform and get through it. I don't think I've ever seen 12 runs before. It was impressive."
Sale's next start is schedule for Thursday against the Royals.
