NOTE: WhiteSoxCentral recently went a server change, so therefore it underwent a DNS information change. The DNS info changes station by station around the world, and may not have been updated in your area yet. If so, you'll get a dead link for the preview, and the site will still feature yesterday's game recap. The DNS info should be fully updated by tomorrow. Thank you.

Viva Magglio!

WSC Recap - By Mike Matha - 4/15/04

 

The White Sox, in front of 15,150 fans looked to sweep, and win their fourth straight against the Kansas City Royals.

 

Mark Buehrle took the hill for the Sox, and while he was solid for 5 innings, he hit a bump in the road in the top of the sixth with a 5-2 lead. Despite Buehrle's sixth inning struggles, the Sox bullpen held strong as the White Sox came on to win 6-5 in 10 innings.

 

Unlike the first two games of the series, the Kansas City Royals struck first in the top of the first with a Carlos Beltran solo home run to left field.

 

However, that was before the Sox had a chance to take their first swings.

 

In the bottom of the first, the Sox came back hard and took the lead 2-1 when things were all said and done in the first. Juan Uribe led the Sox off with a double to right, and was scored one batter down in the order when Jose Valentin did his best Uribe impression, doubling to right.

 

Magglio Ordonez moved Valentin into third, and was driven in by a Carlos Lee sacrifice fly to center field.

 

One inning later, Aaron Rowand hit his first long ball of the season (1), to left, putting the Sox up 3-1.

 

Kansas City later tapped Buehrle in the fourth when Juan Gonzalez hit a solo home run to right field, inching closer 3-2.

 

In the fifth, the White Sox put two more runs on the board, giving them a 5-2 lead. Magglio Ordonez singled with two outs to set up Frank Thomas' first home run (1) of the season, a two run shot to left center.

 

Buehrle was chased in the sixth after giving up 3 more runs, allowing Kansas to tie the game at 5. Buehrle lasted 6 innings, giving up 7 hits, 5 ER, 2 BB, 7 SO, and surrendering 2 HR.

 

In that sixth inning, Carlos Beltran led off with a walk, was moved to second after Sweeney singled to Center, and made his way to third on a sac fly off the bat of Juan Gonzalez.

 

Beltran came around to score one batter later on a single to center from Joe Randa, which also moved Sweeney to second.

 

With two outs, Jose Santiago doubled to deep left, scoring both Randa and Sweeney, tying the game at 5.

 

Buehrle finished the inning, and was relieved by Mike Jackson in the 7th. Jackson, who is yet to give up an ER, pitched 2 hitless, and scoreless innings, allowing the White Sox chances to win it late in the game.

 

The scoring action didn't resume until the bottom of the 10th when Magglio Ordonez hit a game winning solo home run (4) over the left field wall, to put the White Sox up 6-5.

 

Marte earned the win after pitching 2 scoreless innings.

 

The Sox will travel to Tampa Bay tomorrow for a 6:15 win. Danny Wright looks for his first win of the season.

wrong game recap.

We just switched over servers. Some of you may still be veiwing it from the old server, hence the wrong recap or dead links. Open WSC up in a new browser, and refresh the puppy. That should fix all the problems. Sorry for any inconvenience.
