Game 151: Garcia shuts down Tigs

posted in Chicago White Sox, The Stretch Run |

It would have been nice to see Detroit continue what it started on Monday by beating Chicago a second straight day, looking like a team primed for the playoffs. Didn’t happen. Freddy Garcia 1-hit the Tigers for eight innings, Bobby Jenks (in a 7-0 game!) 1-hit them for three more outs, and Justin Verlander got lit up for homer after homer. The end result: 7-0 Sox. This might have been a nice see-saw between the teams if not for two sweeps of Detroit Chicago owns. As it is, it’s just annoying. I’d really like to see some consistancy out of the Tigers. Good thing we won’t be seeing Chicago in the playoffs. Next year, I hope Detroit can shake this season’s total ownage by the White Sox. I’m really starting to hate them.

Don’t know what to read into it. Probably nothing. So that’s what I’m sticking with. The teams ace off again 8 p.m. on ESPN. Don’t forget, Peter Gammons will be on Baseball Tonight prior to the show. As with most baseball fans out there, I enjoy Peter Gammons. I’m glad he’s come back from his health scare with such vigor and can continue to do what he loves.
