This game featured 20 runs and the Birds put up 8 of them as they fall in the opmner of the secoind half 12-8. Berken pitched 4.1 allowing 6 and Thome slugged 2 homers a grand slam and a 3 runner and that was huge for the whitesox one going deep into center over a hedge set really far. Markakis hit a 2 run dinger hiis 9th and Adam Jones added a run shot of his own his 13th but it wasn't enough for the O's who had bullpen struggles in this on as Albers allowed 2 Baez 2 Hill 2 and Mickolio1.2 scorless the only O's pitcher to not allow a run. Izturis doulbled in a run and the O's thretaned top score many times without getting the clutch huit. Huff hit adouible scoring Jones and Jones before ahit an infoield single that had a wild throw on it. Mora hit a deep double to center that missed going out by mere inches as did Huff.
