Freddy Dominates

Freddy Garcia put on a show last night that will serve as an example of how to pitch in the dreaded thin air of Coors Field. His lone mistake was allowing a 3 run homer in the 1st. Garcia then settled in and retired the next 22 consecutive batters faced, finishing the evening with 10K's in 8IP allowing just 2H and 3R.
The offense was also clicking, racking up 9 runs on 15 hits and drawing 6 free passes but managed to leave 12 MOB. Konerko had a 2R homer in the 1st and the middle of the order, including JD, AJ, Konerko and Uribe all racked up multiple hits. The theme of the evening seemed to be 2 out scoring rallies, which the Sox managed to do for almost every run that they scored. Many of those scoring rallies began with 2 outs and nobody on base and without the benefit of a homer, a beautiful thing to see from an offense that has struggled in the begining of the season. The lone Sox starter to draw the collar was Iguchi, who was 0-5 with a walk. (Freddy we won't count as a hitter)
The Sox have a great chance to clinch winning this series tonight, as they go up against Byung-Yun Kim while sending Contreras to the hill whose fork-ball and splitter should still be effective in the mountain air.
