I had driven 16 hours back
from Destin, FL, to get to the game because I was worried about the
White Sox having enough guys on another perfect day for baseball.
Knowing we would have 4 guys out due to weddings, injury, or work, I
didn't expect a few other no shows. The White Sox, with 22 on
the roster, fielded 10 for game one and only 9 for game two...gees.
I had sent an email to the guys begging for a split with the
league-leading Dodgers knowing that we might be short-handed.
What I did not expect upon my arrival was a stellar outing by Evan
Neiser, Mark Taylor, and the White Sox offense. Evan stunned the
Dodgers hitters for 19 strikeouts in a complete game shutout victory
scattering 5 hits and only one walk over the 7 innings. The Sox
hitters were led by Justin Luttrell (4-5, 2R, RBI) and Andy Miller
(3-4, 2R, HR, BB, K, 3RBI). In game two, Mark Taylor once again
started to fall victim to a defensive shortfall, but stood strong on
the mound to strikeout 7 Dodgers batters with 7 scattered hits to get
the win. The White Sox offense was stellar in the 4th scoring 13
of the 23 runs led by Chris Huebner (3-3, 4R, HR, 2BB, RBI), Stephen
Boudreaux (3-4, 3R, 2B, 2RBI), and Andy Miller (4-5, 3R, 2-2B, 2RBI)--Stephen
Boudreaux, White Sox
One of the umpires today
proclaimed that, "If you placed an order for a perfectly nice day,
it would turn out just like this one." Agreed. I was
personally in a bit of a fog yesterday due to lack of sleep, but
from what I remember, the White Sox had a great day at the plate and
some dandy pitching at times. The return of Evan Neiser was
profound in game one as he struck out 13 batters and only gave up 2
earned runs in a complete game victory. Game two saw an
improved Mark Taylor surrender only 5 earned runs striking out 8
batters in 3 2/3 innings before handing the ball to Nick Rumancik
for the save in a run-ruled 5-inning game. Key offensive
players on the day include Justin Lutrell (4-6, 5R, 2HR, 2BB, 3RBI),
Brandon Barr (4-5, 3R, HR, 2B, RBI, 3BB), John Michael Hairston
(4-7, 2HR, 5RBI, 3B, K). White Sox are surging just in time
for an idle week. Who makes this schedule anyway?--Stephen
Boudreaux, White Sox
Game one was Levi Rush on
the hill for the White Sox as part of the "5 lefties in the pen".
Levi has this pitch that I still cannot figure out from my vantage
point at second base. It looks like it is going right at the
batter and then cuts left on a flat plane back over the plate.
It was this pitch and some crafty location that earned him the win
in a complete game giving up only 2 ER with 6K and only 1BB.
The offense was sparked by Stephen Boudreaux (3-3, RBI), Nick
Rumancik (2-3, 2B, RBI) and Andy Miller's game changing 3R HR in the
6th off the Brave's ace former javelin specialist. Game two
exposed the Braves lack of pitching depth. The Sox had all 12
in the batting order score at least once led by Justin Lutrell (2-2,
HR, 2R, RBI, HBP, BB), Brandon Barr (2-4, HR, 2R, RBI, K), Tom
Spaniol (2-2, 2R, RBI, BB), Chris "Rookie" Huebner (2-2, HR, 3R,
3RBI, BB), Mark Taylor (2-2, HR, 2R, 2RBI, BB), and Nick Rumancik
(2-2, 2R, 2RBI). Rumancik took the mound for the Sox getting
the win in 5 innings giving up 6 runs with 7 K and only 2 BB.
Mark Taylor gets the save with 3 batters faced and 3 Ks.
