San Diego Padres Pounce On White Sox 6-1 In Final Game at Home


Written By Kendahl Damico for Mouthpiece Sports

In their final home game at Camelback Ranch, the Chicago White Sox fell to the San Diego Padres in a final 6-1 loss. Padres' Adrian Gonzalez hit a two-run homer in the fourth and helped keep the Sox at bay.

Playing their final Spring Training game at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Arizona, the Chicago White Sox fell to the San Diego Padres in a disappointing 6-1 loss.


Apparently the Sox needed more than a state-of-the-art facility to compete with their opponent's offensive efforts, as the Padres' Adrian Gonzalez got things rolling in the fourth with a two-run home run to center field.

The White Sox only managed one run thanks to A.J. Pierzynski's hit that drove one home, but Paul Konerko, Jermaine Dye, Alexei Ramirez and Jordan Danks all took a slice off Jake Peavy.

Clayton Richard started the outing for the Sox, though he won't be part of the starting rotation during regular season. Richard threw four strikeouts, one walk and three runs for six innings against San Diego, with Mike MacDougal relieving him in the seventh.

The Chicago White Sox managed a victory over the Oakland A's on Wednesday afternoon at Camelback Ranch. The win brings their Spring Training record to 12-14-1.

The Chicago White Sox pulled out a 5-4 victory over the Oakland A's on Wednesday afternoon thanks in part to Bartolo Colon's performance on the mound and the starters' skills in the batter's box.

With all eyes on him, Colon pitched 4 1/3 innings managing four strikeouts of his 43 pitches. Randy Williams relieved him in the fourth.

Wilson Betemit continued to shine in Spring Training blasting his sixth home run of camp. Jim Thome also snagged himself a homer and matched his teammate Jermaine Dye with a double in the fourth.

Veterans Paul Konerko and A.J. Pierzynski each had RBIs.
