It was an up and down day/night as the Chicago White Sox and Baltimore Oriole split the two games they played. The first game they played of a suspended game and the Orioles came out on top by the score of 4-3. It was the White Sox who then came back to win the night cap by the same score of 4-3.
In the night cap, Jim Thome hit a solo home run in the sixth inning for the game winning run. The White Sox also got rbi from Ken Griffey Jr. who had a rbi double in the fourth inning. The other two runs that the Sox scored came on a balk and a error.
Clayton Richard tossed six innings and gave up six hits and three runs to get the win for the Sox. Richard even his record for the season at 2-2 with the victory. Octavio Dotel, Matt Thornton, and Bobby Jenks all tossed one inning of reliefe and all three did a great job. Jenks recorded his 26th save of the season in the game.
The Sox are up a half game on the Twins who are out playing against the Seattle Mariners on the West coast. Let’s all hope for a Twins loss!
