Santana looks to continue dominance of White Sox

Sep 9, 2007 - 1:07 PM Minnesota (69-73) at Chi White Sox (61-81) 2:05 pm EDT

CHICAGO (Ticker) - Johan Santana is not having his typical, dominating season. However, on Sunday, he looks to continue his mastery of the Chicago White Sox as the Minnesota Twins hope to avoid a three-game sweep at the hands of their division rival.

Santana (14-11, 3.15 ERA) has been spectacular in just about every game he has not had to face the Cleveland Indians - a team he is winless in six starts against - as he is 14-6 with a 2.84 ERA in his other 23 outings.

That includes a 2-0 record in two starts with a 2.40 ERA vs. the White Sox this season. He is 12-5 with a 3.12 ERA lifetime against the Indians.

The White Sox counter with Jon Garland (9-10, 4.75), who has very little success against the Twins this season. In two starts against them, he has lasted a total of 9 1/3 innings and surrendered 18 earned runs.

Chicago has won the first two games of the series by a combined 19-17.
