From Joe Jackson to Frank Thomas, A Look at the Chicago White Sox, Both Past and Present
[powered by WordPress.]
With only seven hits and four strike outs in the game against the defending world champs, the Boston Red Sox, who would have thought that the Sox could squeak out a win? Mark Buehrle is who. Going against the Manny-less Red Sox line up, Buehrle pitched seven strong innings and gave up four hits, one earned run, and struck out eight. Immediately after Buehrle left the game, the Sox put up three runs in the eighth to get back into the game, but the Sox bull pen pulled through and an insurance run in the bottom of the inning kept the Sox ahead for good. The bottom two and the top three hitters had all of the production for the White Sox offense, including a solo shot for Carlos Quentin which was number thirty one on the year. Ken Griffey went hitless in the game in four at bats. Jose Contreras will make his first start since July 13th on Saturday against the Red Sox in game 2 of the series.
