CHICAGO -- Bryan Holaday saw an opening and took advantage. Holaday drove in Austin Jackson with a two-out bunt single in the ninth, leading the Detroit Tigers to a 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night. Holaday said he focused on White Sox third baseman Marcus Semien before going for the bunt hit against Ronald Belisario. "I noticed he was staring in and then he backed up and I thought I had a good chance to lay it down," the catcher said. Jackson bolted for home while Holaday beat the throw to first. Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said he was calling for the bunt, but he wasnt sure if the message ever got to Holaday. "I dont know if he heard us or saw it on his own and took advantage," Ausmus said. "(Holaday) is not a speed merchant but hes not slow. . Hes got the ability to beat it out." Jackson started the winning rally when he reached third on a one-out error by right fielder Dayan Viciedo. Belisario (1-3) pitched two innings, allowing one hit and striking out three. Holaday, a late lineup addition, went 2 for 4. White Sox starter Jose Quintana struck out a season-high 10 in six innings, but received a no-decision for the third time this season. The left-hander allowed three runs and eight hits. Justin Verlander allowed three runs and six hits in seven innings for Detroit. It was the right-handers 176th quality start since 2006. The White Sox jumped ahead with three runs in the third. Adam Eaton doubled home Semien and then scored on Gordon Beckhams base hit. Adam Dunn drove in Beckham with a two-out double to right. Detroit got one back on Victor Martinezs RBI single in the fourth, and then tied with two runs in Quintanas last inning. The Tigers collected four straight two-out hits. Torii Hunters RBI single scored Miguel Cabrera and Jacksons base hit drove in Martinez. "He was doing pretty good, but you run into that part of the lineup, if youre not perfect, that can happen," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said of Quintana. "With Cabrera, then you go to Victor, so unless youre on it and youre throwing it right where you want, that can happen, it can sneak up on you." Quintana struck out Nick Castellanos to close his final inning. Alejandro De Aza tripled with one out in the seventh but was stranded when Verlander struck out Semien and Eaton. Verlander walked three and struck out four. "I was a little out of rhythm after six days off," he said. "After the third inning I kind of established a rhythm and got back to the way I should and have some quick innings." Tigers catcher Nick Avila was a late scratch with lower back spasms. He was replaced about 2 1/2 hours prior to the game by Holaday. NOTES: Ausmus said RHP Anibal Sanchezs finger "looked good" and he is scheduled to do informal throwing Wednesday. Sanchez was placed on the disabled list April 27 with a laceration on his right middle finger, and that "rawness kind of seems to have gone away," Ausmus said. "Its just a matter now of building up the skin on the end of that finger where it can take the friction of a baseball coming off of it again." ... The Tigers entered Tuesday after two days off having played just 21 games - the fewest in baseball. ...

With three games left, the As still need a combination of Oakland wins and Seattle losses totalling two in order to clinch.Theyre all different, but the common denominator is were not scoring any runs, said Oakland manager Bob Melvin, whose team was swept by Texas at home last week. Were getting opportunities to do it and were still not getting them in.Beltre sent a drive just over the wall in right field off Luke Gregerson (5-5) with one out for his team-leading 19th homer of the season and just his second since Aug. 10. It was the first walk-off homer of the season for the Rangers.Texas closer Neftali Feliz (2-1) pitched a scoreless ninth.Its been fun, said Beltre, who dodged one dousing during an on-field interview but couldnt avoid a drenching from a second bucket. Weve been playing very well.Oaklands Coco Crisp reached base five times on two singles and three walks, but Josh Reddick went 0 for 5 behind him and never moved him up to second base.The As put the leadoff runner on five times in seven innings against Colby Lewis, but he pitched around five walks and six hits with seven strikeouts.With his season-ending no-decision, the 35-year-old Texas right-hander coming off partial hip replacement surgery ended up tied with Japanese ace Yu Darvish for the team lead with 10 wins.dddddddddddd.We talked all season about how inspirational he is, Texas manager Tim Bogar said. It was fun to watch Colby go out there and fight through that and get through seven innings.Jason Hammel made his first start for Oakland since the birth of his second child over the weekend in Massachusetts. He had a one-hitter in the sixth when Leonys Martin reached on a bunt single with two outs, stole second and scored on Elvis Andrus single for a 1-1 tie.The right-hander, just 2-6 since coming over from the Chicago Cubs in a trade at the deadline, was replaced after allowing consecutive singles to Beltre and Jake Smolinski to start the seventh. Dan Otero got two strikeouts to keep the Rangers from taking the lead.Sometimes youve got to make one run stand up and I didnt do that, so Im pretty disappointed, Hammel said. It just stinks its two little light hits that end up tying the ball game.FACING HIS OLD TEAMGeovany Soto, playing at Texas for the first time since the Rangers traded him to Oakland a month ago, put the As up 1-0 with a sacrifice bunt in the sixth. Brandon Moss held up at third until the bunt was down and scored easily.TRAINERS ROOMAthletics: OF Brandon Moss is planning to have surgery following the season after an MRI revealed torn cartilage in his right hip.Rangers: LHP Martin Perez, who had reconstructive elbow surgery in May, will start a throwing program in November at home in Venezuela.
