After being swept in a double header on Tuesday, the Chicago White Sox responded with a win on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. The White Sox scored three runs in the sixth inning and then held off the Blue Jays for a 6-5 victory.
Mark Buehrle was the starting pitcher for the White Sox and he picked up the win after throwing 7 1/3 innings. Buehrle did give up seven hits but struck out six and only allowed one run to score. It was a very good quality start for Buehrle who dueled with Roy Halladay. Octavio Dotel was charged with one run in the eighth inning, and then Bobby Jenks came in and allowed three outs in the ninth inning.
A.J. Pierzynski led the sox at the plate with three rbi. A.J. had a rbi single and then a two run double in the game. Jim Thome, Jerry Owens, and Brian Anderson all chipped in with one rbi each as well. It was a good showing for the offense against Halladay who usually shuts down the opposition.
