The White Sox are 39-16 in their last 55 interleague games and will be sending one of the best Interleague starters in all of baseball. Buehrle enters this contest against the Dodgers with 23 career Interleague wins to tie him with Jamie Moyer at the top of that list. Not to mention Buehrle is 26-14 with a 3.79 ERA at US Cellular and most of the Dodgers have never seen him. The Dodgers are one of the most injured teams in the Majors. Jon Garland is a former White Sox and will probably pitch well in this game. But, take the White Sox to win this one!
