=== Chicago White Sox Team Report - May 21 === (My Sportsbook) - Bartolo Colon tossed his third complete game of the season and Jose Valentin scored two runs as the Chicago White Sox downed the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-1, at U.S. Cellular Field. Colon (5-3) permitted one run on nine hits with six strikeouts and two walks for Chicago, which rebounded from Monday's 12-2 pounding in the series-opener to halt a four-game losing streak. Paul Konerko posted two hits and an RBI for the White Sox, while Miguel Olivo added two hits. Getting the ball for the White Sox tonight is Mark Buehrle, who is a dismal 2-7 with a 4.96 ERA in 10 starts this season. In his last outing on Friday, Buehrle was roughed up for nine earned runs and 10 hits in just three and one-third innings of an 18-3 setback to the Minnesota Twins. He struck out none and walked two in receiving his sixth consecutive loss. Buehrle is 0-0 with a 2.92 ERA in 12 innings pitched in his career against Toronto. Chicago has taken eight of the last 12 games versus Toronto. Colon is the only White Sox pitcher to throw a complete game this year.
