White Sox Slap 8-3 Loss on Nationals
Chicago White Sox starter Melvin Garner pitched a strong game against the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park, leading the White Sox to victory, 8-3. In 8 innings, Garner surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. The White Sox raised their record to 57-93.

It could have been a different outcome for Chicago, had it not been for Blake Sabol, the 25-year old catcher . Sabol contributed a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put Chicago up, 8-2.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Chicago manager Bill Haselman.
