 ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - At long last, the Chicago White Sox seem to have figured out how to make it back to the World Series: great pitching and big home runs, with lucky breaks from the umps sprinkled in.
Freddy Garcia became the latest White Sox ace to pitch a gem, Paul Konerko homered in the first inning for the second straight night and Chicago beat the Los Angeles Angels 8-2 Saturday to take a 3-1 lead in the AL championship series.
A checked swing in the first inning, a catcher's interference call that wasn't made in the second and a pickoff play in the fifth all went against Los Angeles.
