    . He was supposed to pitch Game 4 of the Division Series against the Yankees last Sunday, but was too sick.

    ``I have no idea how I got it,'' Washburn said. ``My wife and kids were with me and they're all fine. I hardly ever get sick. I'm feeling much better but I'm still a little weak and I don't have all my strength back.''

    Washburn said he didn't eat for two days, then finally had some soup Tuesday.

    ``I just want to help the guys,'' Washburn said. ``I felt I let them down the last series when I couldn't get out there and do my part.''

    --Buehrle praises Anderson: The White Sox's Game 2 starter tonight, Mark Buehrle, said he respects the Angels' offense, but added, ``I don't think they're as good offensively as Boston is.''

    Garret Anderson (Kennedy High of Granada Hills) has had more success against Buehrle in his career than most Angels, even though it's a lefty vs. lefty matchup.

    ``He stays in against lefties,'' Buehrle said of Anderson. ``Most guys, Vlad or maybe Adam (Kennedy), they bail. He stays in there. I think he's one of the best left-handed hitters against left-handed pitching.''
