For the second time in his career, Gavin Floyd nearly tossed a no hitter.  Floyd pitched 8 1/3 innings and only gave up one hit which came in the ninth inning with one out.  Joe Mauer hit a double to break up the no hit bid.

Floyd still picked up the win and improved to 3-1 on the season.  Bobby Jenks came into the game to get the last two outs and didn’t have any problems with that.  It was funny watching Ozzie Guillen get booed as walked out to the mound to take Floyd out of the game.  But those booes quickly turned to screaming for Floyd as he exited the game.

Jermaine Dye connected for a solo home run in the sixth inning for the White Sox.  Dye also had a RBI in the first inning as he had two total RBI in the game.  Carlos Quentin also had two RBI and Joe Crede and Juan Uribe both had one RBI.

The White Sox are now 15-16 on the season as they look to make a run to get over the .500 mark.
