Final/14
Cabrera, Vazquez square off in series finale
Apr 28, 2008 - 1:32 PM Baltimore (14-11) at Chi White Sox (14-10) 2:05 pm EDTCHICAGO (Ticker) - The Chicago White Sox will look for their third straight win when they host the Baltimore Orioles in the finale of a four-game series on Monday.
After Brian Burres pitched brilliantly in the series opener on Saturday to give the Orioles the first win of the series, the White Sox grabbed the nightcap of the doubleheader, 6-5.
Jose Contreras made it two in a row for Chicago on Sunday, pitching 6 2/3 solid innings, and Paul Konerko homered twice in a 6-1 win.
The White Sox will have to deal with Daniel Cabrera (2-0, 4.40 ERA) in the finale. The righthander had his best start of the season on Wednesday, allowing two runs in eight innings while striking out five and walking none to earn a win at Seattle.
The Dominican hurler, who led the American League in runs allowed and walks allowed in each of the past two seasons, has allowed two runs or less in each of his past three outings.
Chicago will counter with Javier Vazquez (3-2, 4.40). The veteran righthander is coming off his worst start of the season in which he allowed six runs and 10 hits in 5 1/3 innings to suffer a loss against the Yankees Wednesday.
