Thome homers, Vazquez cruises to Chi-Sox victory

Tagahito Iguchi went 4-5 with 3 runs. Jim Thome went 1-3 with 2 BB's and a 3 run homer, his 13th of the year. Javier Vazquez went 7.2 IP, allowing just 2 runs. Even the struggling Brian Anderson got in on the act with a solo shot of his own, his 3rd of the year. And the Chicago White Sox won again, improving to 21-9 on the year, with a 9-2 stomping of the Kansas City Royals. The White Sox are playing .700 ball and are tied with the New York Mets for baseball's best record.

Runelvys Hernandez was roughed up for 6 runs in 4.2 IP as the Royals fell to 7-21, good enough for worst in baseball.
