The White Sox overcame a 4-0 deficit and took the lead only to lose it and have to scored two runs in the ninth to win it.  Paul Konerko scored when Pablo Ozuna tried to bunt him over to third and the pitcher threw the ball away.  A.J. Pierzynski later scored on a wild pitch to give the White Sox an insurance run that didn’t end up being neccesary.

Pierzynski finished the game three for five and he scored two runs in the 9-7 win.  Darin Erstad went two for four and he both scored and drove in two runs.  Joe Crede hit his second homer of the season.

Javier Vazquez had tough time in the first inning and gave up four runs but he calmed down and didn’t give up another run until the seventh.  He was credited with six innings and he gave up five runs on seven hits and a walk with five strikeouts.  Boone Logan picked up the win and Bobby Jenks saved it in the ninth.

Now the White Sox skip back home to play two against the Tigers.  It’ll be a rematch of the Friday matchup with John Danks throwing against Chad Durbin.
