Plesac (1-1) allowed two runs (one earned) on seven hits and one walk while striking out three across 6.2 innings to earn the win Thursday against the White Sox.

The majority of the damage against him came in the fourth frame, when he surrendered two doubles and a walk to account for the only earned run he allowed.
