Are watching the game or getting it off gameday? I only ask because it was a triple in name only. Kotteras hit a knuckling line drive right at Jackson who misplayed it into a triple. It should have been caught or certainly could have been caught.

I just saw the defensive low lights for Detroit, just awful defensive play in this game by them.

Dirks homers for Detroit. 6-4.

Solo HR for Andy Dirks

6-4 Oakland

And that is why the White Sox are in first place. IMO.

I saw a stat on MLBTV or Comcast (I can't remember which) after Monday's game that the White Sox have allowed the fewest unearned runs in the majors while the Tigers were 30th. The run differential was over 40. I don't remember what they were exactly.

Dirks homers. 6-4.

Dirks HR. 6-4.

Gameday only

No wonder you're faster to update the thread over me watching on MLB.tv.

I couldn't get the Sox on TV last night so I was "watching" on gameday and had no idea what anyone was talking about with Viciedo and the Gordon double last night. Sometimes I think gameday is better.

Oh god, they finally put the video up of Jackon's misplay that scored the two pivotal runs. Jeezus.

We go to the 7th. 6-4 A's.

[doublem23]

Cook comes on and gets Jackson and Infante, leaving Cabrera and Fielder up next inning with nobody on base.

If the A's want to add 1-50 more insurance runs this inning, that'd be great.

[JB98]

"If they get 50 here, they'll be up 56-4."

Down goes Cabrera swinging. Maybe he's slumping.

[WisSoxFan]

An interesting 4 to 1 ground out for Fielder. If they can get the next seven in a row they don't have to face either of those two again. A guy can dream...
