White Sox start fast, but fall to Giants
03/10/2006
Giants at the plate: Eliezer Alfonzo capped off a five-run fifth inning with a two-run home run off knuckleballer Charles Haeger. It was Alfonzo's second home run of the spring. Abraham Nunez added two hits and one RBI, Angel Chavez doubled twice, Kevin Frandsen singled twice and Lance Niekro drove home two.
White Sox at the plate: Joe Borchard hit his first home run of the spring, an opposite-field blast in the second inning off Brad Hennessey. Paul Konerko doubled home a run in the third, and Jermaine Dye followed with a run-scoring single.
Giants on the mound: After a scoreless first inning, the South Siders pounded Hennessey for five runs on six hits in 2 2/3 innings. Hennessey struck out Juan Uribe looking, but walked Jim Thome twice. Reliever Kevin Correia worked two scoreless innings, striking out two.
White Sox on the mound: Jose Contreras continued his strong push toward the 2006 regular season, allowing one run on five hits over four innings of work. The most important statistics for Contreras, though, were his five strikeouts and third straight start without issuing one walk.
Cactus League records: White Sox 3-8; Giants 6-3
