ST. PETERSBURG, Florida - Chicago White Sox rookie Munetaka Murakami hit his 24th home run on Friday as Shohei Ohtani also reached the same number for the season with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Murakami got his fourth homer in six games as the White Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 6-1, connecting on a 3-1 changeup from Nick Martinez (10-3) in the third inning at Tropicana Field as a two-run shot to left center gave his team a 4-0 lead.
