Ugly game vs. the Orioles today. 8-1 Loss
Freddy Garcia tossed four scoreless innings before getting hit for six runs, four earned, in his final two innings of work in the series opener. Jermaine Dye had the only White Sox hits, including a solo homer, as the champs had more errors than hits.
It didn't take very long for White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen to break down his team's 8-1 loss to Baltimore Monday night before 38,829, the franchise-record 20th sellout of 2006 at U.S. Cellular Field.
Finding a White Sox silver lining from Monday would be almost as difficult as it was for the South Siders to hit Baltimore starter Erik Bedard (9-6). The White Sox can't even say they escaped without injury from one of their worst debacles in the past two seasons, as second baseman Tadahito Iguchi left the game in the fifth inning with a mild sprain of his left ankle. He collided somewhat violently with Jermaine Dye while grabbing Kevin Millar's popup in short right field, with each player calling off the other at the same time.
X-rays were negative on Iguchi's left ankle, while Dye suffered a few cuts from Iguchi's cleats after he was kicked in the mouth. Dye should be back in the starting lineup Tuesday, but Iguchi could be out for the next couple of games.
With Pablo Ozuna battling a strained left hamstring, the White Sox might have to make a move Tuesday with their top utility player, depending on his updated condition.
