Danks takes hill as Chicago looks for series split

Jul 5, 2007 - 2:49 PM Baltimore (37-47) at Chi White Sox (36-45) 8:11 pm EDT

CHICAGO (Ticker) -- Rookie John Danks takes the mound for the Chicago White Sox on Thursday aiming to keep them from losing a series to the Baltimore Orioles for the first time in six years.

Chicago, which had won six of seven on the road, returned home and promptly dropped two of three to Baltimore. The White Sox have won 15 of the 24 meetings here and have not lost a series at U.S. Cellar Field to the Orioles since June 29 - July 1, 2001.

Danks (4-6, 4.43 ERA) is in charge of making sure that does not happen. The lefthander is coming off the best start of his career as he held the Kansas City Royals to one run and four hits in a career-high eight innings, but did not factor into the decision.

He will be opposed by fellow rookie lefthander Brian Burres (4-2, 3.88), who threw a season-high 7 2/3 innings against Anaheim and picked up the win by allowing three runs and five hits.

Brian Roberts scored two runs and Kevin Millar drove in a pair as the Orioles posted a 9-6 victory on Wednesday.
