Sabathia, Garko lead way as Tribe rips Chicago Star BeaconHis previous best in ERA was 3.60 in 2003.
Sabathia also leads the league with six complete games, and led the majors in the same category entering Tuesday, despite missing a month of the season because of injury. ""I definitely feel like this is the best year I've pitched," he said. "Just consistent. This has been the most consistent year that I've had by far. This is the best I've felt by far, as far as my pitches." "Wins and losses don't always tell the true tale when it comes to a starting pitcher, as is evident with some great pitchers in the game," Wedge said. "C.C.'s a guy who really has solidified himself as a No. 1 this year." Garko's double to the left-center field gap followed Martinez's sacrifice fly. In his next at-bat, he sliced a drive to the opposite-field as it landed in the Chicago bullpen in right. "Garko really stepped up for us big," Wedge said. "A couple of two-out knocks, (5) RBIs. "This is a guy that's had a lot of RBIs in a limited amount of at-bats. And hitting in the middle of our lineup without (Travis) Hafner, he's done an outstanding job for us." "Obviously, (cleanup) is a big spot," Garko said. "If you're going to try hitting in the middle of the lineup, you've got to be able to be a run-producer." Martinez's single in the fifth inning extended his hitting streak to 13 games. Vazquez, who lasted seven innings, struck out 12 batters, marking the fourth time in his last five games that he has fanned 10 or more. Sean Tracey finished for the White Sox.
