CHICAGO 3, ANGELS 0: White Sox left-hander Sale dominates Angels for second time in a week

Los Angeles Daily News — ANAHEIM - C.J. Wilson sounded less frustrated than jealous. "I wish I threw 96 (mph), three feet across my body, but I'm just a regular-sized white guy," the Angels' pitcher said after being upstaged by Chicago White Sox starter Chris Sale for the second time in six days.

But while Kipnis’ power display off of hanging slider from Lucas Luetge was impressive, what really cost the Mariners a victory was speed. If not for the blazing speed of Drew Stubbs and Michael Bourn, Kipnis doesn’t come to the plate in the 10th inning and get to be a hero. “Their speed got us there at … Read more »

Giants lose wild one under Coors big top

San Francisco Chronicle — Giants lose wild one under Coors big top If you said Jordan Pacheco, whose fifth-inning grand slam off Madison Bumgarner broke a 5-5 tie, thanks for playing and better luck next time. Fowler's play stood in complete contrast to the Giants' defense, the real culprit in a loss that ended their 10-game win streak against Colorado - and for that matter, their 1-3 trip. The Bumgarner, Sandoval and Pagan throwing errors helped the Rockies overcome a 4-0 Giants lead and made two of Bumgarner's career-worst nine runs unearned. Errors aside, it was a 5-5 game when Bumgarner walked D.J. LeMaheiu wi...

But he knew what it meant to get the best of the Tigers' Triple Crown man in Friday's 2-1 loss to Detroit.
