The White Sox seven gave road swing turned into a six game road swing, and they ended up losing four of six. Today shouldn’t have came as a complete surprise, because the Garland train couldn’t last forever, and he got shelled for the first time this year.

He gave the Sox six innings, but he left with seven earned runs. He added nearly a 0.50 point to his ERA in the process. Almost all of the damage came in that sixth and final inning as the Rangers put six runs on the board.

Juan Uribe had a nice game going three for four with two RBIs. Aaron Rowand had two doubles and scored twice.

Minnesota was shut out by the Roy Halladay today, so despite losing three in a row, the White Sox still have a 3 1/2 game lead. Chicago gets to come home to play the Angels this week. Hopefully the home crowd will push them to a series win.
