Dye looks to continue his hot hitting vs. Tigers

Aug 4, 2007 - 1:12 PM Chi White Sox (50-59) at Detroit (61-47) 7:05 pm EDT

DETROIT (Ticker) - Jermaine Dye will try to lead the Chicago White Sox to their third straight win in the second game of a weekend series against the Detroit Tigers on Saturday.

In the series opener, Dye registered his 22nd homer and Juan Uribe stroked his third career grand slam as Chicago posted a 7-4 victory on Friday.

The 2005 World Series MVP has been on a tear since the All-Star break, going 27-for-84 (.321) with 10 homers, eight doubles and 18 RBI.

Javier Vazquez (8-6, 3.63 ERA) takes the hill for Chicago, which is 2-2 on its six-game road trip. Last time out, Vazquez had his five-game undefeated streak ended with a 4-1 loss to Toronto on Sunday.

The 6-1 righthander improved to 2-4 against Detroit, which was limited to three runs and four hits in eight innings by Vazquez on July 24 at U.S. Cellular Field.

The Tigers will counter with Jeremy Bonderman (10-3, 4.33), who is coming one of his worst career outings. On Sunday, Bonderman was tagged for 10 earned runs in 2 1/3 frames of a 13-4 loss at Anaheim.

The hard-throwing 24-year-old is winless since capturing his 10th win of the season.

Bonderman has managed a 5-1 record at Comerica Park, where he last appeared on June 7.
