TWINS-WHITE SOX

 

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Dylan Cease spun a one-hitter over seven innings as the Chicago White Sox walloped Minnesota 11-0 on Sunday to surge into the All-Star break by winning three out of four games against the first-place Twins. The Sox outscored the Twins 32-10 in the series. Cease (9-4) allowed only a fifth-inning single to Alex Kirilloff and two walks. Lowering his ERA to 2.15 with his fifth scoreless start of the season, Cease struck out eight to become the fastest pitcher in White Sox history to record 500 career strikeouts. He got there in 399 1/3 innings, well ahead of seven-time All-Star Chris Sale (472 1/3).

 

Tim Anderson’s two-out, two-strike, two-run single gave Chicago the lead in the fifth inning against Twins starter Chris Archer (2-4), who was cruising in his return from the 15-day injured list for left hip tightness until a two-out walk to Seby Zavala. Vaughn followed with a two-run double four batters later to prompt Baldelli to pull Archer. The White Sox then roughed up right-hander Joe Smith in a six-run seventh inning with a two-run homer by Moncada, a solo drive by Vaughn and a three-run homer by Harrison. The 38-year-old Smith did not allow an earned run in his first 16 appearances of the season. In 14 games since May 23, Smith has surrendered 23 hits, 16 runs and six homers. The Twins don’t play again until Saturday at Detroit to start a two-game series. Their next home game is not until Aug. 1.

BRITISH OPEN

 

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — Cameron Smith made eight birdies on the final day of the British Open. His 8-under 64 was the lowest closing round at St. Andrews by the champion golfer of the year. His name on the claret jug includes his score of 268, the best ever on the Old Course. Cameron Young played with Smith and finished one shot behind him. This was a big one. And it was a big disappointment for Rory McIlroy, who along with Viktor Hovland started the final round tied for the lead. Smith and Young were four behind and by the end of the day, one had the silver claret jug and the other had a silver medal.
