Keeping Up the Fight... White Sox Prevail over A's, with 4-1 Victory (Game 13, '08)

After last night's loss to the Oakland Athletics, it was good to see the White Sox earn a split with a victory today in the two-game series to close out their first homestand on a positive note before heading to Baltimore.  If this team plays like this all year - never quitting, bouncing back, showing heart, and playing hard, then regardless of where they are in the standings, I will be glad to see some well-played baseball by my favorite team.  Of course, a playoff birth would be nice, and if they continue to pitch as consistently as they have so far, things could look very good for the White Sox come the end of September. 

I'm glad to see John Danks come back very strong after a tough outing last time out.  This is about what I expect from Danks and Floyd - some good games, some not so good.  I have to say I am encouraged by what I have seen from these guys so far overall.  I believe 1-5, all our starters have the potential to keep the White Sox in the ballgame to let the offense get to work.  I like the bullpen, and the rotation has for me, been even better than I expected so far.  I hope the White Sox can keep things rolling on the road...
