Anderson connected again in the eighth off Stephenson, and Yasmani Grandal and Abreu followed with homers during a seven-pitch sequence. It was the second time this season that the White Sox hit three homers in a row.

Left-hander Dallas Keuchel went four innings in his return from back spasms and allowed four hits while fanning seven. Keuchel threw 75 pitches in his first start since Sept. 6. The Reds stranded five in scoring position against the left-hander.

Matt Foster (5-0) retired the six batters he faced in relief of Keuchel.

The Reds had a moment of silence pregame for Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died on Friday.

Anderson is batting .426 (29 for 68) in September. He went 2 for 4 Saturday, raising his average to .368 for the season. It was his second multihomer game this season.

White Sox: Keuchel was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and Jonathan Stiever was optioned to Chicago’s alternate training site. Stiever gave up four homers in 2 2/3 innings of a 7-1 loss on Friday night.

Reds: Left-hander Wade Miley threw a simulated game. He has been on the injured list since Aug. 28 with a sore shoulder. The Reds might use him out of the bullpen the rest of the way.
