		<description><![CDATA[Good news: 1. Jermaine Dye hit a pair of homers, his first in September, and his first multi-homer game since August of 2008. 2. Tyler Flowers ripped a double off the right field wall, his first major-league extra-base hit. He then scored. Bad news: 1. Bill Welke might&#8217;ve made the worst strike call of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a loss you can&#8217;t pin on the offense. John Danks put the Sox in an early hole in just two batters, walking Carlos Gomez to start the game, then giving up a homer to Orlando Cabrera for an early 2-0 deficit. A double, single and sac fly gave the Twins another run before the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Orlando Cabrera hit a flare to short right, down the line. A diving Jermaine Dye didn&#8217;t get there. Nor did he stop it. It rolled away slowly behind him for a JD triple. He then scored on an A.J. Pierzynski passed ball &#8212; on a fastball over the plate. One batter after Daniel Hudson prevented [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This game had the hallmarks of a team White Sox fans have seldom seen this year. The offense rallied from an early 3-0 hole, finally supporting a quality start, thanks to some timely hitting. And they held it thanks to some excellent middle relief work. A.J. Pierzynski, who hasn&#8217;t done much with runners in scoring [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nobody deserved to win this game. Fortunately, the A&#8217;s wanted it less. In a comedy of errors, the Sox had the last laugh, with A.J. Pierzynski&#8217;s double ending an awful night of baseball in nearly all respects. Alexei Ramirez started the 13th with a one-out single off Edgar Gonzalez. Pierzynski came up and sent one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the potential game-winning run on first and nobody out, Ozzie Guillen turned to his best pitcher to try to push the game into extra innings. That&#8217;s right: Guillen called for Tony Pena. Pena alternated between outs and hits, but that wasn&#8217;t good enough.  A one-out single put runners on the corners, and after Pena [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How John Danks escaped this game having allowed just one run over 6 2/3 innings is hard to fathom. With just one out in the second inning, he already had five walks under his belt.  The out itself was a gift &#8212; Ty Wigginton drew the first walk, but tried stealing for no apparent reason.

		<description><![CDATA[Scott Linebrink knows how to win. He knew what he was doing when he walked two batters with two outs, then gave up a first-pitch homer to Mike Jacobs, erasing the 7-4 lead Ozzie Guillen brought him in to protect. He knew Scott Podsednik&#8217;s deal with the devil would continue, as he would drive in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Considering the amount of miscues and miscommunications, the Sox shouldn&#8217;t have won this. The scoring began with a home run, and ended with a home run 10 innings later. Alexei Ramirez played the hero once again, hitting the go-ahead home run in the 10th inning, ending the 7-7 deadlock. The late game heroics wouldn’t have [...]]]></description>
