Munetaka Murakami, not only hit his 32nd homer of the season, but his first career triple as well! Is the big man finally breaking out of his slump? Plus, Erick Fedde was great in his start.

The hope was that, with Munetaka Murakami belting a three-run homer off Framber Valdez, the White Sox might be able to create some breathing room for their beleaguered bullpen by the time it had to enter the fray.
Instead, those were the only runs the White Sox scored, and Will Venable ended up using Grant Taylor for the final 2⅓ innings.
The good news is Taylor broke his four-game streak of being scored upon, even pitching around a Luisangel Acuña mistake in the ninth inning to convert an...
