Black Sox Blog

Part of the problem with living in parts unknown is you don’t get to see a lot of your team’s home games. You can check out who’s playing on ESPN in your hotel room now and then, but this hotel doesn’t have WGN so I don’t get to see my Sox play too often. I was working this afternoon anyway, but I was closely watching updates of the game on the net.

And what a game. Despite only getting five hits, the White Sox squeaked by the Indians 1-0. Mark Buehrle was about as stingy as you can get, giving up only two hits and a walk through eight innings. Aaron Rowand’s RBI single in the seventh was the sole run the Sox needed to win the game.

So I guess Guillen’s one base at a time strategy will work, as long as we get near perfect pitching. Hopefully Wednesday the Sox will be able to get the bats going and take Millwood out of the game early.
