August 14, 2008 5:18 PM

CHICAGO
The Chicago White Sox tied a major league record by hitting four consecutive homers against the Kansas City Royals in the sixth inning Thursday.



Jim Thome hit a two-out, three-run homer and Paul Konerko and Alexei Ramirez followed with shots off reliever Joel Peralta. Robinson Tejeda (teh-HAH'-duh) relieved and Juan Uribe (yoo-REE'-bay) greeted him with another drive to give the White Sox a 9-2 lead. The four straight were a White Sox club record and marked the sixth time in major league history it's been accomplished.

The last team to hit four straight homers was the Boston Red Sox against the New York Yankees on April 22, 2007, according to Elias Sports Bureau.
