Rodriguez took the loss which was his first of the season as he is now 0-1.  Former White Sox pitcher Jon Garland got the start on the mound for the White Sox and pitched ok.  Garland tossed six innings and gave up seven hits and three runs.  Things could have been much worse for Garland much he worked himself out of a couple jams in the game.

Darren Oliver and Jose Arredondo combined to pitch two scoreless innings in relief of Garland.

At the plate for the Angels, Garret Anderson and Casey Kotchman each had one rbi.  They both came in the first inning when Anderson had a rbi single and Kotchman had a two run double.  Anderson scored the Angel’s third run in the seventh inning on an error by Joe Crede.

Starting pitcher Jon Garland tossed six innings but allowed ten hits and seven runs.  Garland walked three batters, struckout five, and also gave up two home runs.  Chris Bootcheck wasn’t much better out of the bullpen as he pitched .2 innings and gave up another seven earned runs on six hits and three walks.  Talk about a terribly job by Garland and Bottcheck.

Mike Napoli hit is sixth home run in the fifth inning to led the Angels at the plate.  The Angels only other RBI in the came in the second inning when Robb Quinlan had a RBI single.  Up and down the lineup, the Angels struggled at the plate.
