Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Staked to a rather comfortable early lead, a fluttering Philip Humber repeated his trend of unconsistency, but the Chicago White Sox bullpen were just about perfect on Saturday.

Four no-hit frames from the quartet of Hector Santiago, Nate Jones, Jesse Crain and Addison Reed helped the White Sox edge the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-4, in the middle installment of a three-game interleague series.

Santiago fanned two and walked one in 1 1/3 frames, Jones struck out one in two-thirds of an inning, Crain surrendered a walk but fanned one while Reed struck out a batter in a 1-2-3 ninth for his eighth save of the season.

Humber (3-4) was charged with all four of his runs in the third inning. He allowed nine hits and two walks in five innings for the White Sox, who had lost four of their previous five contests coming in.

Chad Billingsley (4-5) was touched for five runs -- four earned -- on eight hits and a walk for the Dodgers.
