Today, Jon Garland got maimed against Minnesota.  He allowed 12 runs, 11 earned, off of 11 hits and 3 walks while recording only 10 outs; none of whom whiffed.  That's a game score of -11.

How does that compare with past ChiSox game scores?  Well, today's action isn't the b-ref database yet (heck, the game isn't over yet as I write this), but I can find the ChiSox gamescores for every other regular season game since 1957 in the PI Index.

Since 1957, the Sox have had 7 other times a guy has had a game score of zero or worse.  Sadly, Garland really did have the worst start by a White Sox pitcher in over a half-century.
