Sox pitcher Mike Vasil throws for first time since Tommy John surgery (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Injured right-hander Mike Vasil has been the White Sox’ most visible, boisterous cheerleader all season. Before the Sox’ game Friday against the Tigers, his teammates returned the favor. Vasil has been sidelined since spring training after tearing the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow in a Cactus League game March 14 and having Tommy John surgery April 2. On Friday, he threw a baseball for the first time since the procedure, making 20 tosses from 45 feet on the left-field grass at Rat

St. Louis went on to top the Cubs 8-4 and dealt the North Siders only their third loss in their last 12 games. All three of Báez’s drives, as well as Blaz

Cubs starter Clay Holmes shuts down Cardinals in 3-0 victory (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cubs newcomer Clay Holmes and his sinker were back in form. Holmes was dominant in his second start with the Cubs and in his home debut at Wrigley Field, tossing one-hit ball into the seventh inning and leading the North Siders past the Cardinals 3-0 on Friday. Seiya Suzuki hit his 21st home run, a three-run shot in the sixth, to break a scoreless tie and added a double in the eighth for his fourth two-hit game in his last six. The Cubs kept the pressure on the National League Central-leading Br
