DETROIT (AP) — Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer deep into the right-field seats off Jose Valverde in the ninth inning and the Chicago White Sox turned the tables on Detroit, beating the Tigers 3-2 Saturday.

Detroit defeated Chicago 5-4 on Friday night when Jhonny Peralta hit a two-run shot with one out in the ninth. There was also one out when Dunn hit his 422-foot drive off Valverde (2-1).

Nate Jones (1-0) got the win and Addison Reed came on to strike out Austin Jackson with runners on second and third for the final out. It was Reed’s first career save.

Detroit’s Delmon Young went hitless in his first game back from a seven-day suspension following his April 27 arrest in New York.

It was Valverde’s second blown save of the season. He was perfect in 49 chances in 2011.

Dunn’s homer was his eighth of the season. Paul Konerko also went deep for Chicago.

The Tigers scratched out their two runs in the second on RBI singles by Andy Dirks and Jackson.

The White Sox trailed 2-0 before Konerko’s solo shot in the seventh. Alejandro De Aza started the ninth with a single and a stolen base. He was sacrificed to third and Dunn — always a strikeout risk — made solid contact to put Chicago ahead.

Jones had pitched the bottom of the eighth, and Hector Santiago came on to try to close it out, but a walk and a double put Chicago’s slim lead in jeopardy. Reed, who hasn’t allowed a run this season, got the best of Jackson to preserve the win.

Gavin Floyd allowed two runs and seven hits in seven innings for the White Sox.

Floyd was unlucky in the second, allowing an RBI single to Dirks on a slow grounder that snuck between third baseman Brent Morel and shortstop Alexei Ramirez.

Jackson’s run-scoring hit actually deflected off Morel and past Ramirez, who looked as though he might have been in position to keep the ball at least in the infield and prevent the runner on second from scoring.

Floyd retired 12 in a row starting in the third inning. In his last three starts, he’s allowed four runs in 21 innings.

Detroit’s Max Scherzer yielded a run and four hits in seven innings. He struck out nine without a walk. Showing none of the control trouble that plagued him in a seven-walk performance last weekend against the Yankees, Scherzer retired the first 11 White Sox before Dunn lined a single to right.

Chicago’s second hit nearly ended Scherzer’s outing. A.J. Pierzynski’s line drive up the middle hit Scherzer’s right foot during the pitcher’s follow through. The right-hander picked up the ball and threw wildly to first, and the play went for an infield single and an error, with Pierzynski ending up on second.

Scherzer stayed in the game and got out of the inning on a flyout and two strikeouts. He allowed a single to De Aza in the sixth — then promptly picked him off first. Konerko broke up the shutout an inning later with a homer to left.

Young was reinstated from the restricted list Friday after his suspension, but he didn’t play that night. He received mostly cheers and a few scattered boos from the home crowd for his first plate appearance.

NOTES: The Tigers sent OF Brad Eldred outright to Triple-A Toledo, a day after designating him for assignment to make room for Young’s return. … Konerko is second among active players with 43 home runs against the Tigers. Jim Thome has 66. … Detroit RHP Rick Porcello (2-2) faces Chicago RHP Dylan Axelrod (0-0) in Sunday’s series finale.
