No Hitting Again as Sox Lose to Angels 2-0 (Game 39, '08)

It was not a good move defensively for Nick Swisher and Jermaine Dye to throw home to try getting the runner instead of throwing to second base to the cutoff man.  Still, when you only get three hits on the evening, and score no runs, it almost doesn't matter what plays are made or not made in the field.  This is a team that is clearly searching at the plate, and are pressing in the field, not making the best choices, misthrows, and overall sloppy play.  What is bad to see is how every aspect of the White Sox' game besides their pitching is going south.  Octavio Dotel was responsible for one earned run, but he was very good getting out of a jam in the seventh by striking out Vlad.  I thought that was the ballgame right there, that the White Sox would get pumped up and get some runs. Not to be.  Unless this team can hit at a mediocre level, they will be lucky to be a .500 team when it's all said and done.  John Danks did his job, giving up no earned runs over 6 1/3 innings, and I don't put this loss on the bullpen.  It is a shame once again another stellar pitching performance was wasted.  Hopefully tomorrow the White Sox can find something.  They're going to have to - very fast before this quickly slips away from them.
