Buehrle & Garcia Tame Angel's

Mark Buehrle and Freddy Garcia each lead the Sox to W's the last two evenings, although Buehrle did not earn a decision. Buehrle pitched 9 innings of 1 run ball on Tuesday and was relieved by Marte who earned the win and the save by holding the Angel's scoreless in his 2IP. The Sox went ahead in the 11th on an RBI double by Iguchi scoring Crede who led off the inning with a single.
Last night Freddy pitched one of his best games of the year holding the Halo's to 2 runs in 8IP. He was using his fastball effectively to set up the hitters for his off speed stuff in the dirt and it was working for him all night. The Sox offense scored all 4 of their runs off of HR's, with Paulie hitting a 3 run bomb in the 1st and Widger following a few innings later with a solo shot of his own.
The Sox have a chance to win a series in Anaheim for the first time since 1994 this evening. Contreras takes the hill for the Sox in an attempt to make that happen.
