The Chicago White Sox finished up a three game series against the Texas Rangers in dramatic fashion as they came from behind to beat the Rangers 10-8.  It was a big three run home run in the 8th inning by Carlos Quentin that was the game winner for the White Sox.  They were down 8-7 until Quentin went deep for his 26th home run.

The 8th winning home run wasn’t Quentin’s only home run in the game however as he also hit a solo shot in the 5th inning.  Jim Thome had three rbi as he got the White Sox on the scoreboard with a three run blast in the first inning.  Orlando Caberea, Jermaine Dye, and Alexei Ramirez all chipped in with one rbi each as well.

White Sox starting pitcher Clayton Richard was rocked for seven hits and five runs in only four innings of action.  Richard struckout seven batters in only four innings but also gave up a home run and walked one batter.  D.J. Carrasco gave up one run while Boone Logan gave up two runs in relief of Richard.  Finally Octavio Dotel and Bobby Jenks were able to get things under control as the White Sox held on for the win.

Dotel ended up getting the win and is now 4-4 while Jenks picked up the save which was his 19th.  It was nice to see Jenks come in and pick up the save as he rejoined the team off the disabled list.

The White Sox will have a big series this weekend against the Detroit Tigers. Hopefully you can catch some of the games!  White Sox Baseball
