JoshPR Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 A season of somewhat frustration for the Sox as the teams hopes went down in the wake of the Season ending knee injury to team leader and shortstop Ozzie Guillen. The Sox finished 3rd (86-76) 10 games back in the AL west. Frank Thomas once again was the Hitting star leading the team in Batting Average (.323) RBI’s (115) and led the league in Doubles (46) and smashed 24 homers. Designated Hitter George Bell (.255) acquired in a deal with the Cubs hit 25 homers and had 112 RBI’s, 3rd baseman Robin Ventura (.282) had 16 homers and 93 RBI’s. The Running game was solid, Lance Johnson (.279) lead the league with 13 triples and added 41 steals, LeftFielder Tim Raines (.294) had 45 and second baseman Steve Sax (.236) who struggled with the Glove and the bat added 30 steals. Graig Grebeck filled in nicely for Guillen until he too went down to injury. On the Mound Righty Jack McDowell (20-11) became the teams first 20 game winner since 1983 and had a 3.18 ERA. Left y Greg Hibbard (10-7) Struggled and finished with a 4.40 ERA. Veteran Kirk McCaskill (12-13) and Knuckler Charlie Hough (9-10) rounded out the staff with Youngster Alex Fernandez (8-13). Bobby Thigpen struggled too but ended with 22 saves, Fireballer Roberto Hernadez added 12 and Scott Radinsky 15 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
