From Joe Jackson to Frank Thomas, A Look at the Chicago White Sox, Both Past and Present

Another game, another close victory. The White Sox trailed in this one 3-0 until they put two runs on the board in the eighth. Willie Harris drove in a run on a single and moved to second on Repko’s error. He then scored on a Paul Konerko ground out to shave the lead to a single run.
Then in the bottom of the eighth, Aaron Rowand drove in two White Sox with a single. Dustin Hermanson allowed a hit and a walk in the ninth, but he got out of the inning unscathed to earn his sixteenth save of the season.
The Sox have picked up four games in the their last ten to extend their lead to a nice, comfortable 7 1/2 games. They lead the Royals 5-3 in the fourth, so hopefully they’ll be able to hold on and make the lead eight games.
