Game #1
CHICAGO -- Tim Raines (1) tripled and homered to power the 94 version of the White Sox to a 6-4 win in the series lid-lifter.
Joey Cora added 3 hits and
Robin Ventura walked 4 times.
Wilson Alvarez (2-1) tossed 6.2 innings for the win.
Roberto Hernandez (2) closed out the 9th. The 05 offense was all
Frank Thomas (3,4). The
Big Hurt hit a 3-run bomb in the 4th and a solo shot in the 6th.
Jose Contreras (1-3) was lit up for 6 runs and 7 hits in 4.2 IP.
Interesting note: Thomas is the only shared player on the two rosters, unless you count 94 SS
Ozzie Guillen and the 05 manager.
Game #2
CHICAGO -- Scott Sanderson (1-0) scattered 7 hits over 6.1 IP and limited the 05 Sox to just 1 run as the 94 club captured the series with a 6-1 victory.
Sanderson? Wait. Wasn't he chuckin' on the north-side. At any rate the World Champs couldn't muster anything against him or
Jose DeLeon and
Dennis Cook, who mopped up. Meanwhile, the offense put together an 11-hit team effort with 8 of the 9 starter getting at least one knock. No one drove in more than 1 run.
Orlando Hernandez (0-1) was decent in his start, giving up 2 runs in 6.
Neal Cotts and
Bobby Jenks failed miserably in relief, allowing 4 more runs.

Game #3
CHICAGO -- Freddy Garcia (1-1) fired a complete-game, 6-hitter as the 05 club salvaged a game, 5-2. This game was played at U.S. Cellular Field, which is not to be confused with Comiskey Park II, and certainly, not to be confused with Guaranteed Rate Field, but I digress.
Paul Konerko (5) tied the game at 2-2 in the 4th with a 2-run blast off
Jason Bere (1-3).
Chris Widger provided the cushion with a 2-run single in the 8th. The younger version of the
Big Hurt clobbered his 7th HR of the year in the 4th.
Game #1
