Sean Burke Strikes Out Eight in White Sox Wild Card Game 2

Chicago White Sox right-hander Sean Burke did not factor in the decision in Game 2 of the AL Wild Card Series, striking out eight batters while giving up three runs on four hits and no walks over four innings in a 7-3 win over Houston. Burke generated 14 whiffs on 72 pitches, though three solo home runs cut his outing short. The eight strikeouts tied a season high as Chicago swept the series to advance to the ALDS against Cleveland.
