CHICAGO (AL) AT BALTIMORE White Sox....... 4 0 2 0 0 1 1 0 2 - 10 14 0 Orioles......... 4 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 0 - 7 14 2 Win:Rusch(1-0) Loss:Hendrickson(1-2) Save:Eldred(2nd) Homeruns- R.White-3(4th), J.Burnitz(4th), A.Pierzynski(2nd) Designated hitter Rondell White smashed 3 homeruns and had 8 RBI and Cal Eldred performed beautifully in relief at Camden Yards as the Chicago (AL) White Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles by the count of 10 to 7. White was unconscious out there. While Baltimore pitching was serving softballs up there for him to hit, the Baltimore fans were serving up some hardball barbs when he entered the batter's box. But he just used it as fuel for the fire. He clubbed a three-run home run in the 1st inning, bombed a two-run dinger in the 3rd inning, doubled which scored a run in the 7th inning and lifted one out of the park for a two run home run (his 4th of the season) in the 9th inning. Eldred earned the save with a perfect ninth, his 2nd save. Glendon Rusch(1-0) went 5 and 1/3 innings allowing 5 runs for the win. Mark Hendrickson(1-2) was the loser. He served up 3 gopher balls in 6 and 1/3 innings. With this win, Chicago (AL) has a 11-18 record. They have been 6-4 lately. With this loss, Baltimore has a 4-6 record of late, 11-18 overall.
