Mark Buehrle pitched eight strong innings and the Chicago White Sox were able to defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-1 and snap their road losing streak. Buehrle was dominate in the game as he only allowed six hits and one run, (which was a home run) while striking out two. Buehrle is now 5-6 on the season.
Scott Linebrink pitched ninth inning and had no problems at all. The White Sox didn’t need to use closer Bobby Jenks as they were up five runs in the ninth inning.
Jermaine Dye had a two run home run to lead the White Sox at the plate. Dye took Derek Lowe deep in the eighth inning. Nick Swisher, Dewayne Wise, and Alexei Ramirez all had one rbi in the game as well.
Good win for the White Sox on the road as they beat a quality Dodger team. And any time you beat Lowe you are doing some good things at the plate. The White Sox will try to go up 2-0 in the series on Wednesday night.
