What a line. I know he gave up a couple of runs, but two hits and two walks through seven innings is very impressive. What’s equally strange is, despite Garland throwing seven+ innings, the White Sox used five pitchers. I know the game got close near the end, but Marte came in, hit a guy, and it looks like he immediately then left.

It’s nice to see Juan Uribe finally hitting out of his slump. He hit his first homer of the season, and his four RBIs last night exceeded his previous total (3).

John Sickel’s Minor League Ball did a nice write up on White Sox minor leaguer Gio Gonzalez. You can always use lefthanded arms, so it would be nice to see this guy still throwing well two or three years from now when he gets his chance with the big league club.
