The Tigers regrouped after losing Dontrelle Willis to a knee injury in the first inning, and Magglio Ordoñez had a bases-loaded single Friday night as Detroit beat the White Sox 5-2 in Chicago for their second victory in 10 games.

Willis slipped as he delivered a pitch in the first, hyperextended his right knee and managed to throw only 14 pitches before being removed. Willis will be re-evaluated and when he might be able to pitch again was unclear.

Ordoñez, who had one RBI entering the game, hit a two-run single in Detroit’s third to put the Tigers ahead 3-2. Brandon Inge also had an RBI single in the inning. Willis walked leadoff hitter Carlos Quentin.

On his first pitch to Orlando Cabrera, his right knee that he plants while delivering gave way and he slipped in front of the mound. The game started late because of rain.

A trainer and manager Jim Leyland came out, but Willis told them he was OK to continue.

After Willis walked Cabrera and threw a wild pitch with a 1-1 count on Jim Thome, the trainer and Leyland went back to the mound. Willis again appeared to tell them he was OK, but Leyland removed the lefty and brought in Aquilino Lopez.
