7/2 Fifth Place Cubs 15 World Champion White Sox 11

Mark Buehrle gave up 10 earned runs in 5 innings and 7 in the first inning. Cliff Politte gave up 4 earned runs in 2 innings of work. Basically, the Sox made a bad baseball team look like the 1927 New York Yankees.

The offense had a good day. It just was not good enough to overcome the terrible pitching. The Sox amassed 14 hits and logged 7 of their runs off of Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano, a very good pitcher. If the Sox can get their pitching straight, they could go on an amazing run, but that is starting to look like a pretty big "if" at this point.
