White House on Thursday and raise the Cup bann Antworten

CHICAGO - Adam Dunn made it seem as if he had no trouble seeing through the dense fog. Dunn went 4 for 4 with two homers and five RBIs to overcome two home runs and five RBIs by Torontos Jose Bautista and give the Chicago White Sox a 10-6 victory in a game delayed over an hour because of limited visibility Monday night. "It was actually pretty tough," Dunn said about the fog. "It was probably a lot tougher for the outfielders. "It was worse than when it rains. With the lights, it made it really really bright. It was weird." Dunn hit a three-run home run off knuckleballer R.A. Dickey (5-8) in the fourth inning after he hit a solo shot in the third. Dunn, who entered the game with a .165 batting average, hit home runs that were estimated at 444 and 441 feet. "I dont think Ive faced that many (knuckleballers)," Dunn said. "I think I faced Tim Wakefield a few times and a couple other guys. "If theyre right, theres nothing you can do about it," he said. "Hopefully the make a mistake and tonight he made a few." The game was played from the second inning on in fog which became so thick in the third inning that fly balls became an adventure. Umpires stopped play in the third for 1 hour, 10 minutes and the fog continued to varying degrees even after the break. "It wasnt being called," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said after his teams third straight win. "Its just you cant predict. Its not like rain. "It would clear up and all the sudden you couldnt see an outfielder. Very odd," Ventura added. "It was probably worse on the outfielders because they couldnt really see when it was coming off the bat." Like Dunn, Bautista made it simple for the outfielders by simply sending it well over their heads. Bautista matched a career high with five RBIs and his first-pitch, first-inning home run with Melky Cabrera on first base gave Toronto a 2-0 lead. Dunns homers gave him his 36th career multihomer game and he matched a career high with four hits. He helped the White Sox score 10 runs in a game for the first time this season. Dylan Axelrod allowed Bautistas two-run shot in the first inning and three-run drive in the fourth, as well as a solo shot by Colby Rasmus in the fifth. Axelrod lasted four innings and gave up eight hits, six runs and four walks. At least on the home runs he gave up, Axelrod said he didnt mind the fog. "I didnt see all those home runs go out," he said. "So thats cool." Dickey went five innings and allowed seven runs, 10 hits and a walk. "Unfortunately the knuckleball is tough sometimes," Dickey said. "When it doesnt break, it can just sit there on a tee for guys like Adam Dunn to hit it out of the park, and thats what he did." Addison Reed pitched the ninth after Jesse Crain pitched out of an eighth-inning jam as the White Sox bullpen threw five scoreless innings. Crain has thrown 25 2-3 consecutive scoreless innings. "You get that lead and you start mixing and matching with guys," Ventura said. "Jesse again coming in in the situation that hes been coming in, hes been big." Reliever Nathan Jones (2-4) got the victory. Trailing 2-0, the White Sox rebounded with a five-hit, three-run second inning against Dickey, capped by Alejandro De Azas two-run, two-out single. The White Sox loaded the bases with singles by Dunn, Jeff Keppinger and Gordon Beckham. A sacrifice fly by Hector Gimenez made it 2-1, then De Aza singled to centre to score Keppinger and Beckham. Dunn made it 4-2 with his solo home run in the third prior to the delay. Then Bautista made it 5-4 for Toronto with his three-run homer in the fourth. Dunns second homer made it 7-5 before Rasmus shot made it 7-6. The White Sox added three runs in the eighth inning helped by two errors by the Blue Jays. Beckham led off with a single and went to third on an error by Edwin Encarnacion. With one out, he scored on an error by Emilio Bonifacio. Paul Konerko and Dunn added RBI singles later in the inning. NOTES: Former White Sox pitcher Mark Buehrle returned with the Blue Jays to Chicago for the first time this season. Buehrle will not face the team he pitched 12 seasons for in this series. He is 2-4 with a 5.06 ERA and one of the wins came in Toronto against Chicago. Buehrle called it a weird feeling when he had to walk past the White Sox locker room. He was honoured with a standing ovation and a video tribute in the first inning. ... Blue Jays manager John Gibbons missed the game due to his sons high school graduation. Bench coach DeMarlo Hale managed the team in his absence. ... Konerko played his 2,116th game, pushing him past Nellie Fox into sole possession of second in White Sox history behind on Luke Appling (2,422). ... Chien-Ming Wang makes his debut with the Blue Jays and will be opposed by Jose Quintana (3-2, 3.95 ERA). Chase Utley Jersey . Despite dominating possession, Schalke needed an own goal from Nicolas Hoefler for the breakthrough a minute before the interval. The Freiburg midfielder misjudged Jefferson Farfans corner and bundled the ball into his own net. Joc Pederson Jersey . -- Jonathan Drouin gave Halifax the boost it needed to edge host Sherbrooke Phoenix 3-2 in a shootout in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action. http://www.authenticdodgersgear.com/dodgers-mike-piazza-jersey/ . In what the team had called a retirement, Ryan said Thursday that he is resigning as chief executive of the Rangers in a move effective at the end of this month. Yasmani Grandal Jersey . Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night. Matt Kemp Jersey .Y. -- Canadas Kaillie Humphries and Heather Moyse have another World Cup gold medal after winning the two-women bobsled race on Saturday in Lake Placid, N. PITTSBURGH -- Sidney Crosbys mini-vacation after the latest triumph in his remarkable career lasted all of four days.Sorry, but the process of defending a Stanley Cup waits for no one. So there Crosby was on Tuesday skating in line rushes with the rest of his Pittsburgh Penguins teammates just five days removed from leading Team Canada to the World Cup of Hockey title as the tournaments MVP.And no, Crosby wasnt about to complain about being tired. Thats simply not his way. Besides, his electric performance during the World Cup offered plenty of proof hes fresh as the Penguins look to become the first team since the 1998 Detroit Red Wings to repeat as Cup champions.When youre playing a lot of hockey its more comfortable, Crosby said. You just have to balance rest and recovery and making sure youre ready to play.Crosby certainly looked ready while piling up 10 points during Canadas clinical domination of the eight-team tournament that featured the worlds best players. He was a unanimous selection as tournament MVP just a few months removed from being named the Conn Smythe Trophy winner after guiding the Penguins to their fourth championship.Theres no danger of burnout, however. Crosby is a rink rat in the best sense. The Penguins were certainly happy to have his familiar No. 87 on the ice, allowing coach Mike Sullivan to work extensively on special teams for the first time during camp.ddddddddddddThats just fine by Crosby, who is well aware of the challenge that awaits the Penguins after they visit the White House on Thursday and raise the Cup banner to the rafters at newly renamed PPG Paints Arena during the season opener next Thursday against Washington.Theres a reason why it hasnt been done for a long time, Crosby said. Everyone wants to beat you. Everyone wants to measure themselves against you.The last time Pittsburgh tried to go back-to-back the Penguins didnt make it out of the second round of the playoffs in 2010. Five sometimes turbulent years for the franchise and its star followed before Sullivans arrival last December and a commitment by management to provide needed depth galvanized Pittsburgh last spring, leading a sprint through the postseason that ended with Crosby taking the Cup from commissioner Gary Bettman for a second time.The Penguins did little to tinker with their personnel during the offseason, which should only aid Crosby as he gets up to speed.It shouldnt take long to adjust or adapt, Crosby said. Playing kind of long into last year, that intensity, that desperation that you finish the season off, you hopefully can kind of carry that off to the start of this season.
