Lack of run support hurts Peavy in White Sox's loss

CHICAGO – Six years have passed since Jake Peavy experienced the thrill of the playoffs.

As the White Sox battle the persistent Detroit Tigers for the AL Central lead, Peavy doesn’t hesitate to shoulder the responsibility for a loss – even when he is not necessarily to blame.

The Sox (76-65) struggled again Tuesday to back Peavy with adequate run support in their 5-3 loss to the Tigers. They’ve dropped eight of their past nine games to Detroit and their lead is two games in the division.
