At Angel Stadium the White Sox swept the Angels once again after A.J. Pierzynski was hit by a Kelvim Escobar pitch. It seems as the hard feelings from last year's AL Championship Series haven't cooled off.
In the second inning of Chicago's 2-1 victory over the LA Angels stood out in another amazing performance by White Sox right-hander Contreras, who achieved his 12th straight regular-season victory. Contreras threw 103 pitches in 8⅓ innings allowing five hits and one run with one walk.
In the eighth inning of the Game 5, Pierzynski got to the base after Escobar tagged him with his glove, while the ball was in the pitcher's other hand. There was a brief argument after Pierzynski was called out and the decision was overturned.
The White Sox beat Los Angeles 6-5 Sunday to complete a three-game sweep of the team they defeated in the AL championship series. There is no much to say as the White Sox is a well-organized, ruthless team that has a goal set in mind for this 2006 season, and they will do whatever it takes to get it.
