White Sox starting pitcher Hector Santiago received no run support while he was in Tuesday's ballgame at home against the Detroit Tigers. It didn't help that Santiago didn't have his best effort on the night.

Santiago ended up suffering the defeat to fall to 3-6 on the season despite his solid 3.38 ERA. He allowed six runs -- three earned -- on five hits and five walks with six strikeouts over six frames. He threw 110 pitches over that span.

The 25-year-old Santiago had been pitching extremely well to close out the first half of the season. Although wins have come at a premium, he's been solid enough to take the ball every fifth day. His next scheduled outing comes Sunday against Kansas City.
