8/24 A Pretty Win

Jon Garland pitched a complete game shutout, and the White Sox won 10-0 over the Tigers. That is more like it.

The defense today was stellar. Brian Anderson made one of the best catches you are ever going to see. Juan Uribe made a great play deep in the hole, and left fielder Pablo Ozuna threw Sean Casey out at first base. Casey lined the ball over third baseman Joe Crede's head, but Casey thought Crede had caught it. With Casey not running hard, Ozuna charged in and gunned him out at first.

Offensively, Jermaine Dye had a double and a pair of homeruns to lead the charge. Uribe also homered, and Anderson hit his first career triple.

Overall, the Sox played fast and loose today. With Jim Thome's injury, they looked like they were trying to make something happen rather than waiting for the long ball. That is White Sox baseball. The Thome injury may be a blessing in disguise.
