It was a disappointing loss as the Mariners had ample opportunity to win.  Furbush struggled early on, with 70 pitches through the first three.  He allowed the leadoff batter of the game on in a single.  Then, Olivo had a passed ball which took away a double play opportunity.  The White Sox ended up scoring two times in the first, and we never led the rest of the game.

In the bottom of the second we were able to get 1 back with a leadoff solo shot on the first pitch by Olivo.  Then, in the third we left the bases loaded.  We tied it up in the 4th, then after the White Sox immediately took back the lead with a two run homer in the 5th, we left the bases loaded once again in the 7th.  In all, we left 11 men on base and lost by the final score of 4-2.
