Facing a lineup with four rookies and a bust of a prospect, Freddy Garcia enjoyed the equivalent of a rehab start. Although he still sought his 12th win by the end of it, he passed the test. Garcia threw six innings of one-run ball, allowing one run on four hits and two walks, and pitching [...]
September 12: White Sox 12, Royals 6
The 2010 Chicago White Sox aren’t dead yet. They should be, but they aren’t. Lucas Harrell spotted Kansas City six runs before the Sox even came to the plate, surrendering a pair of three-run homers. Meanwhile in Cleveland, the Twins took a big, early lead. Falling seven behind looked to be a foregone conclusion. But [...]
September 4: White Sox 3, Red Sox 1 (Game 1)
Thanks to Shinons for the recap. After Hurricane Earl prevented Friday night’s game, John Danks worked around a couple tough situations to hold the tattered Red Sox to one run over seven innings. He handed off to the bullpen, and Sergio Santos and Bobby Jenks took care of business from there. Danks had a couple [...]
July 28: White Sox 6, Mariners 5
Power brought the White Sox back, and power closed this game out. As a result, the White Sox won their third straight game, and one they probably shouldn’t have been in considering the way it started. Seattle scored all five of its runs over the first two innings. Mark Buehrle had some bad luck (Franklin [...]
July 2: White Sox 5, Rangers 3
This game started 2 1/2 hours late due to massive rains in the aftermath of Hurricane Alex, and the delayed start seemed to lead to pretty flat baseball. That benefited Freddy Garcia, who met the minimum for a quality start per usual, but with the ball not carrying the way it usually does in Arlington, [...]
June 24: White Sox 2, Braves 0
For the third straight start, Gavin Floyd pitched a nearly perfect game. For the third straight time, Floyd not receive the win. But hey — for the second straight time, at least the Sox came away with the win, and it came courtesy of a late Paul Konerko homer. The White Sox extended their winning [...]
June 23: White Sox 4, Braves 2
Thanks to K8T for the bullet points: Carlos Quentin had a 2-home run night. The first came in the bottom of the fourth, scoring two runs and the second came in the bottom of the seventh (solo). Quentin was 2-3 with three RBIs, and all the damage came off Atlanta starter Tim Hudson. Mark Buehrle [...]
June 18: White Sox 2, Nationals 1 (11 innings)
Everybody expected Steven Strasburg to eat the White Sox alive, and he lived up to the billing. Not everybody expected Gavin Floyd to outlast him, but that’s exactly what he did. Floyd’s eight strong innings allowed the game to move into a battle of the bullpens, and White Sox relievers reigned supreme tonight. Juan Pierre [...]
June 15: White Sox 6, Pirates 4
The Sox entered tonight in search of a palate-cleanser, and the Pirates got the job done. There’s a difference between a mediocre team and a bad one, and it showed its face tonight. When: *Freddy Garcia pitches poorly and still gets the win… *Ramon Castro (who reached base four times!) scores from first on a [...]
June 6: White Sox 8, Indians 7
When you step back, you still realize that the Sox lost a series to one of baseball’s worst teams at home. But up close, this game was a lot of fun. It didn’t look like it at the onset, as Mark Buehrle was awful. He left a ton of cutters over the heart of the [...]
