TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) _ David Wells gave up two solo homers to Ron Coomer, but the Chicago White Sox rallied to beat the Cubs 7-6 Friday.

Coomer homered in the second and fourth to give the Cubs a 2-1 lead and increase his spring homer toll to four.

"The first (homer) was a cutter that was flat and didn't even move," said Wells, who complained of a sore throat. "The second was a BP (batting practice) fastball. I never seen a guy hit a BP fastball that far, especially when they are not looking for it."

Wells pitched four innings, allowing four hits while striking out three.

The Cubs built a 5-1 lead in the fifth when Ricky Gutierrez hit an RBI double and Julio Zuleta added a two-run single off Kip Wells.

The White Sox scored six times in the seventh off Will Ohman, highlighted by a two-run homer by Joe Crede and a two-run double by Mark Johnson.

Todd Dunwoody added a solo homer in the ninth for the Cubs.
