2008 State of the Sox

July 19: Royals 9, White Sox 1

A few notes, as I have an early tee time:

*Joe Crede's 19th error foreshadowed the end to a Gavin Floyd-Gil Meche pitchers' duel, as John Buck followed up with a homer to provide all the runs the Royals needed.  Otherwise, Floyd pitched well.

*Billy Butler may as well call himself Mike Sweeney.

*The back end of the bullpen partied like it was 2007.

*Alexei Ramirez hit his first triple, one of only two White Sox hits on the night.

*Toby Hall appeared as a pinch runner.
