Tour since 2009.MOVERS: J.B. Holmes shot a 65 despite a bogey on the last hole. He was four shots out of the lead, and
CHICAGO -- Todd Fraziers first season in Chicago has produced 31 home runs, but also an average hovering around .200 and 125 strikeouts.On Thursday night, Frazier provided the clutch hitting the White Sox coveted when they traded for him in the offseason.After striking out in his first three at-bats, Frazier tied it with an RBI single in the seventh inning and won it with a liner down the left-field line in the ninth to lift the White Sox to a 7-6 victory over the Seattle Mariners.You cant rely just on the homer, Chicago manager Robin Ventura said. I think theres more to his game than that. Youve got to be able to knock in runs when youre not hitting them over the fence.Adam Eaton hit a bloop single off Nick Vincent (3-4) to open the ninth and went to second on Tim Andersons sacrifice. Jose Abreu was walked intentionally before Fraziers liner over third scored Eaton, leading to a pileup of players behind the pitchers mound.Unfortunately, it took me three times to do that, Frazier said. To come up clutch today, I felt pretty good.David Robertson (4-2) worked around a walk and two incidents of fans running on the field in the ninth that delayed play for several minutes in Chicagos fourth win in five games.The first two guys I was like, `Ok. All right. Theyve got it under control, Robertson said. The next guy, I got a little angry there.Robinson Cano hit his 29th home run and the Mariners wasted a solid return off the disabled list by James Paxton in their third straight loss. Seattle fell 7 1/2 games behind AL West-leading Texas.Leonys Martin had a two-run single in a three-run sixth as Seattle built a 6-3 lead off White Sox starter Anthony Ranaudo.But Anderson, who had three hits, led a seventh-inning rally with an RBI double off struggling Arquimedes Caminero before Fraziers two-out ground single off Steve Cishek tied it.Paxton gave up five singles and three runs in the first, then scattered two hits in four scoreless innings before leaving after 90 pitches in his first start since getting hit on the elbow by a comebacker Aug. 7.It was just a little bit of rust, Paxton said. I was missing the middle a little bit and they were finding some holes. As it went al png made some better pitches.Ketel Martes fielding error on J.B. Shucks leadoff grounder in the seventh led to three unearned runs for Chicago.Ranaudo was charged with six runs and five hits in 5 1/3 innings in his third third start with the White Sox.Against a lineup like that, your mistakes get exposed, Ranaudo said. I think that happened, but luckily weve got a good team and were having some fun right now.TRAINERS ROOMMariners: 3B Kyle Seager (bruised right foot) missed his second straight game, with manager Scott Servais saying its 50-50 if hell play Friday. Mike Freeman was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma for infield depth, with RHP Tony Zych sent down. ... DH Nelson Cruz hit a sacrifice fly in the first a day after leaving with back spasms.White Sox: LF Melky Cabrera (illness) sat out. ... GM Rick Hahn said CF Austin Jackson (knee surgery) and INF Matt Davidson (broken foot) wont return this season. ... An MRI on 2B Brett Lawrie, out with hamstring, calf and knee issues, came back clean.UNRULINESSTwo men initially ran on the field, with one removing his shirt. One was tackled on the field, while another jumped back into the stands before he was taken by security. Then before a pitch was thrown, another man ran on the field and also took off his shirt.Robertson treated it like a replay challenge delay.Seemed like getting the guys off the field, at least it was something to watch instead of just watching the umpires holding the headphones and just listening, he said.STARTING OVER?White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf hasnt authorized rebuilds in the past. But with Chicago on pace for a fourth straight losing season, Hahn reiterated a roster teardown is possible.Everyone in that front office is looking for the best path to get us on an extended period of success, Hahn said, even if that involves a short-term step back.UP NEXTA showdown of aces Friday night, as Seattle RHP Felix Hernandez (8-4, 3.26 ERA) faces LHP Chris Sale (15-6, 3.15).Cameron Wake Jersey . "Theyve both been real good," said Babcock. "Havent changed our minds." A decision has seemingly been made - Sundays Group B-deciding tilt against Finland ahead - but it could not have been an easy one. Price opened the tournament with a sturdy 19-save performance against the Norwegians, yielding just one goal. Bob Griese Womens Jersey .B. - Sebastien Auger made 44 saves as the Saint John Sea Dogs edged the visiting Acadie-Bathurst Titan 2-1 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action. http://www.dolphinsrookiestore.com/Dolphins-Mark-Duper-Jersey/ .Y. -- Sabres forward Drew Stafford has witnessed plenty of turmoil during his eight seasons in Buffalo. Mark Clayton Youth Jersey . Most important, perhaps, it went off without a hitch. Organizers poked a little fun at the now-infamous opening ceremony gaffe that saw only four out of five snowflakes open up into rings, leaving the Olympics logo one ring short. Christian Wilkins Jersey . Cote was eligible to become a free agent Feb. 15. Cote helped running back Jon Cornish run for a league-high 1,813 rushing yards en route to being named the leagues most outstanding player.CARMEL, Ind. -- Roberto Castro kept pouring in birdies and expanding his lead in the BMW Championship until he finished with another 7-under 65 and led by as many as five shots as the other players at Crooked Stick were finishing their rounds.By the end of the day, U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson had set the course record at 63 and was tied for the lead.Johnson was asked to put himself in Castros place. If he had never won in 125 starts on the PGA Tour, had a big cushion when he finished Friday, and then saw someone like Johnson charging into the share of the lead, would he be nervous.Yeah, I would be, for sure, Johnson said.Castro, the Georgia Tech grad who needs a big week just to get home to Atlanta for the Tour Championship, is a practical sort. Hes not as long off the tee as Johnson (not many are) but hes playing well and golf rewards all manners of good play.I think if you look at the tour, it sure helps to be long, Castro said. But the guy who is striping it usually wins.They were at 14-under 130. Next up is round three:DUSTINS PUTTER: Johnson was getting frustrated by not seeing enough putts fall, so he decided to mix it up and try the TaylorMade Spider. The oversize head of the putter is designed to increase stability. Johnson was asked about the physics behind it, and he wasnt going there.I dont go into that stuff -- as long as it goes where Im looking, he said.The putts were going in the hole, including a 25-foot eagle putt on the 15th and a 30-foot birdie putt on the 14th that sent him soaring to the course record.Johnson didnt know he had the course record until Tony Pancake, the golf director at Crooked Stick, informed him.As for the physics? Johnson says he took a physics course in high school.I got an A, too, bud, he said.CASTRO AND EAST LAKE: Castro is at No. 53 in the FedEx Cup and figured he would have to win the BMW Championship to be among the top 30 who advanced to the Tour Championship at East Lake, about 15 minutes from where he lives.Its not that dire. A fourth-place finish might be enough, dependinng on other players.dddddddddddd Third place would all but secure it.Castro is just trying to hit fairways and greens, make a putt or two and see where it takes him.He qualified for the Tour Championship in 2013, and the next year he ended up losing his PGA Tour card.CASEYS BACK: Paul Casey is trending in the right direction. One week after he had the 54-hole lead in the TPC Boston (he finished two shots behind Rory McIlroy), he played bogey-free for a 66 on Friday and was three shots out of the lead.If you can put it on the right side of the flag, it makes your week really, really easy -- or easier, Casey said. So Ive done so far a really good job of that and I would like to continue it over the weekend.He is No. 10 in the FedEx Cup. He is No. 22 in the world. He is not eligible for the Ryder Cup because he didnt want to take European Tour membership, so the FedEx Cup is really the only thing on his mind. That and winning, which Casey hasnt done on the PGA Tour since 2009.MOVERS: J.B. Holmes shot a 65 despite a bogey on the last hole. He was four shots out of the lead, and his name on the leaderboard could -- or should -- only help his cause for becoming a captains pick on Monday for the Ryder Cup.Bubba Watson, the No. 7 player in the world, overcame his fear of blind shots and shot a 67 to tie for 10th. He also needs a captains pick. He only cared about two tournaments this year -- the Olympics and the Ryder Cup. He was in Rio. He would like to be at Hazeltine at the end of the month.DJ AND DAY: Jason Day and Johnson are Nos. 1 and 2 in the world ranking. They started 1 and 2 in the FedEx Cup. And they are 1 and 2 in the Vardon Trophy for lowest adjusted scoring average. And they have played together the opening two rounds of all three FedEx Cup playoff events.The advantage goes to Johnson, who is a collective 13 shots better than Day and sure to take over the Vardon Trophy lead if he keeps it up.
