CHICAGO -- The White Sox were denied a sixth straight series win, despite James Shields best start since coming to Chicago.The Atlanta Braves beat the White Sox 2-0 on Sunday, though Shields turned in his third straight quality start going into the All-Star break.Even when I was struggling, I didnt put too much emphasis on each start, Shields said. But being consistent and on the same page with Navvy (catcher Dioner Navarro) back there has been great.Shields (4-10) allowed six hits, including two homers, in 7 2/3 innings. He struck out two as his record fell to 2/3 since his arrival from San Diego in a trade.The best (performance) since hes been here, manager Robin Ventura said.As good as Shields was, though, Mike Foltynewicz was better. The Braves right-hander allowed five hits in seven innings. Jeff Francoeur and Jace Peterson homered for all the runs he needed.Foltynewicz (3-3), who grew up in the far southwest suburbs of Chicago, had a career-high 10 strikeouts without allowing a walk. He struck out the side in the seventh on 12 pitches.He has great stuff, Ventura said. Any time you can get up to around 100 (mph) ... It didnt fall off, either. Our guys couldnt get on it. Every time we got something going, he snuffed it out.The 24-year-old right-hander won for the first time since beating the Giants on May 30. He was placed on the disabled list on June 4 with a bone spur and made his third start since returning.Chris Withrow pitched a scoreless eighth for the Braves and Jim Johnson finished for his second save in four chances.After retiring the first four batters, Shields was tagged for a solo shot by Francoeur in the second inning. It was Francoeurs fifth of the season and second in as many games. An inning later, Shields gave up Petersons fourth of the season.Ex-White Sox A.J. Pierzynski hit his 400th career double in the fifth inning. He became the fourth catcher in major league history with 400 or more doubles.BETTER LATE THAN NEVERWhite Sox LHP Jose Quintana has replaced Clevelands Danny Salazar on the AL All-Star roster. A first-time All-Star, Quintana is 7-8 with a 3.21 ERA, sixth-best in the AL at the start of Sunday. He joins teammate Chris Sale on the roster.When Robin talked to me, I couldnt believe that, Quintana said. Any goal for a player is to make the All-Star Game. Im so happy. All my preparation and work, when you get that, its really exciting for me.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: C Tyler Flowers reported improvement in his strained left hand. He received treatment before the game and was scheduled to be re-examined in Atlanta during the All-Star break next week. He will undergo an MRI on Monday. ... RHP Arodys Vizcaino was unavailable because of skin irritation on his right elbow. He was excepted to return immediately after the All-Star break.White Sox: 1B/DH Justin Morneau is 2 for 17 in his rehab stint with Triple-A Charlotte. The White Sox signed Morneau on June 9 as he recovers from offseason left elbow surgery. There is still no timetable for his White Sox debut. I think for him its always going to be about his pace and what he feels like he can handle and where hes at, Ventura said. Thats going to be the biggest thing, and were going to have to be patient with that, for him, knowing whens the right time to give a thumbs up.UP NEXTBraves: Atlanta will make a decision on Fridays starter after the All-Star Game on Tuesday. If RHP Julio Teheran (3-8), who was selected as a member of the NL All-Star team, doesnt pitch on Tuesday, he will likely start on Friday against Colorado.White Sox: Miguel Gonzalez (2-4) is scheduled to start against Angels in Anaheim on Friday. Shields will follow on Saturday. Josh Kline Jersey . "No difference at all," chirped U.S. roommate and linemate James van Riemsdyk. "Its still the same cranky Phil. Jayon Brown Jersey .

Paul Gallens State of Origin highlight was never going to be his debut.In the same match as the ill-fated Brett Hodgson pass, 24-year-old Gallens entry to the representative arena in game III, 2006 coincided with the beginning of the darkest era in NSW Origin history.Nor will he remembered most for the punch that ended all punches.A crushing blow to the forehead of Nate Myles in 2013 that brought an end to brawls in rugby league, but in his eyes represented a moment where the Blues showed they were ready to fight back.The crowning moment of his career so far - when he became the first NSW skipper to lift the shield in nine years in 2014 - is also by no means his most powerful.Although it was a fitting reward.Instead, Gallens legacy was created in Game II of 2011, when a colossal 80-minute, 212m performance in his second game as skipper put pride and starch back into the Blues jersey.In the four years that preceded that game, NSW had won just won just one live fixture.Since then, they have claimed six and Gallen has carried his NSW side both on the field and off it.As a kid I never followed an NRL team, Gallen said.But I always followed NSW.The numbers alone are not kind to Gallen.His 15 losses from 23 games are the most for any player in Origin history, however it says more about him that he has been selected consistently to play that many games in an era during which the Blues have churned through 97 players.ddddddddddddSo too does the fact he led the Blues forwards in average run metres in every series between 2010 and 2014.Further proof that Gallen gave Blues fans a reason to believe lies in attendance figures at ANZ Stadium which have not dropped below 80,000 since he became captain in 2011 - a figure they didnt reach in any of the games in the five years before that.Ive played the villain a bit to keep people interested, Gallen has admitted.And with every pre-Origin spiel, he showed not only an understanding of Origin football but the steel NSW required to rebuild from the ruins.Its also why Gallen understands how Wednesdays dead rubber is just as important for not only his legacy, but the Blues one that carries on after him.The young boys moving forward, they need some confidence going into next year, he said.Thats why we need to be totally desperate on Wednesday night in everything we do.PAUL GALLENS ORIGIN CAREERGames: 23Record: 8-15Games captained: 15Debut: Game III, 2006Tries: 1Average minutes: 63Average metres: 139.8Average tackles: 30.8* Statistics courtesy Fox Sports Stats Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China China NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Wholesale ' ' '
