July 26-27th White Sox 10 Strikers 7 Strikers 3 White Sox 10 FINALLY A CLOSE GAME! It seems that parity is off a bit this season. Teams are either run-ruling opponents or teams are forfeiting their chances. Not so at Reiff Park with the Strikers and White Sox. On a beautifully warm afternoon, the struggling White Sox looked to find some chemistry heading into the mid-point of the season. The White Sox had in the past week lost their two "ace" pitchers for the remainder of the season and are going to have to rely on some crafty veterans to pick up the pace. In game one, lefty Mark Taylor took the hill against the still-up-and-coming Strikers. The Strikers borrowed a couple of able bodies from the Cubs to help them field a competitive team and it showed. While Taylor pitched a nice, complete game fanning 7 batters, things looked like they might be a little shaky having given up a dinger with the third pitch of the day. The game seemed in hand, though with the Sox up 10-3 going into the 7th when a tired Taylor let four runs come across. Coach Boudreaux made a nifty play on a slow roller to end the game showing distant signs of his former self. Having turned 40 this year, it may be his last season in the 18+... Offensively, Andy Miller was 2-3 with 4RBI, Mike Lopez was 1-1 with 2BB, 3 Runs, 1RBI and a stolen base. In game two, Tom Spaniol looked to douse any momentum the Strikers were building by striking out 11 batters and giving up only 5 meaningless hits in a complete game effort. Tom's location was nearly perfect as he had a 2-hitter going into the 7th. Anthony Osborne went 2-4 and scored 2 runs. Coach Boudreaux was 3-4 with a run scored and 2RBI off borrowed pitching. Highlights included an incredible infield base hit by Lyndall Bolinger whose hustle on a healing broken leg allowed him to beat the throw by sliding headlong into the bag. Also, the game ended on a Travis Briggs laser beam throw down to second base to catch a runner off the bag.--Stephen Boudreaux, White Sox

Oklahoma Spartans rout Lowell White
Sox
June 14-15th White Sox 5 Marlins 11 The opening day for the Marlins and White Sox looked to be a real tough battle with the score 4-3 Sox into the top of the 6th and then 6-4 Marlins through the top of the 8th. That's when things fell off for the Sox with the Marlins plating 5 in the bottom of the frame. The Sox could only score one in the top of the 9th. White Sox pitcher Evan Neiser pitched well through 6 to give the Sox a chance striking out 6 in the loss. Mark Taylor relieved striking out 5. Patterson for the Marlins struck out 7 White Sox batters in a strong effort to earn the win giving up only 4 scattered hits.--Stephen Boudreaux, White Sox
