Jon Garland had a pretty solid start, at least through the first six innings.  Then he started giving up more runs and made the deficit insurmountable.  I guess it doesn’t matter too much though because the Sox couldn’t get the bats going anyway.  Garland gave up five runs on five hits and a walk with three strikeouts in seven innings.  His two big mistakes were a pair of homeruns.

Jim Thome was pretty much the offense.  He went one for two with two walks and he drove in the only run of the game with a solo homerun.

Game two is tonight.  Mark Buehrle will take on Kevin Millwood..  Burhrle is off to kind of a mixed start and that he got nailed by that comebacker.  Hopefully this is a break through game for the left hander.
