“Let’s win one for Tony Pena!” must not be the most inspiring rally cry, because the much-maligned reliever pitched a brilliant six innings in emergency relief of Gavin Floyd with nothing to show for it. Floyd threw exactly seven pitches before exiting the game with shoulder tightness. Pena went from sitting 200 feet down the [...]
September 15: Twins 9, White Sox 3
I’ll be honest — I only saw the bottom of the ninth. If anybody wants to beat me to the punch with a recap, feel free. Otherwise, I’ll speed watch it tomorrow. Record: 79-66 | Box score | Play-by-play
September 9: Tigers 6, White Sox 3
The White Sox began this four-game series with the Detroit Tigers by extending their winning streak to seven. They left town on a three-game skid after watching Gavin Floyd get singled to death in the finale. Floyd gave up 13 hits over his six innings, including 10 over his first 3 2/3. None of them [...]
September 4: White Sox 3, Red Sox 1 (Game 2)
Thanks to shinons for the recap. After a Carlos Quentin triple then score on a collision at the plate, the next time he took the plate he was met with a John Lackey fastball square in the back. Coincidentally, Quentin came into the game with a 2.156 OPS against Lackey. Righty-killer Big Papi Ortiz led [...]
August 29: Yankees 2, White Sox 1
The White Sox organization paid tribute to Frank Thomas by retiring his number before the game. White Sox hitters saluted him by retiring their bats. In the process, rookie Ivan Nova got his first major-league win, defeating Gavin Floyd in a pitching matchup the Sox had to win in order to stay competitive in the [...]
August 24: White Sox 7, Orioles 5
For those of you who hate bunting, tonight’s victory had to be sweet. The Sox and Orioles were tied at 2 in the seventh when A.J. Pierzynski reached with a leadoff single. Ozzie Guillen called for Alexei Ramirez to bunt. He fouled off two of them, and then went down swinging on a Jeremy Guthrie [...]
August 18: Twins 7, White Sox 6
It’s not a good sign when the Sox starters continue to outlast their Minnesota counterparts, and yet they still keep losing. This time, the bullpen wasn’t to blame. It’s all on Gavin Floyd, who missed a lot of spots. The Twins didn’t miss many of his mistakes. The Sox gave him second and third lives, [...]

August 7: White Sox 4, Orioles 2
Bullets! *Gavin Floyd evened his season record to .500 by picking up his eighth win thanks to late-inning heroics by Alex Rios, who singled home Juan Pierre to give the Sox their first lead of the game in the eighth inning. *Floyd overcame early trouble. He gave up his first homer in 12 starts when [...]
August 1: White Sox 4, A’s 1
Gavin Floyd and Gio Gonzalez started today with a combined perfect game, retiring the first 27 batters they saw. The Sox finally got to Gonzalez in the bottom of the fifth, and the A’s did the same to Floyd in the top of the sixth. Fortunately, the Sox made theirs hurt a little more, and [...]
