‘‘I just didn’t have consistency tonight,’’ Imanaga said through an interpreter after the game. ‘‘How my body felt versus how the ball was coming out didn’t match up.’’

Ben Brown pitched five effective innings, Pete Crow-Armstrong drove in two runs and the Chicago Cubs topped the Chicago White Sox 5-4 on Sunday.

White Sox left fielder Andrew Benintendi reached reliever Ryan Brasier for a three-run home run in the eighth inning, his second homer of the game, to bring the White Sox within the final margin.
