CLEVELAND -- Now that the Chicago White Sox have gotten the monkey off their back, they can go about trying to win a series from the Cleveland Indians. Balenciaga Shoes Sale Online . The two teams will meet Thursday night at Progressive Field in the final game of a three-game series.The White Sox lost the first game 3-1 but won the second game in rousing fashion. Trailing 7-5 in the ninth inning, the White Sox scored five runs, four coming on a grand slam by Adam Eaton, giving Chicago a 10-7 victory.That win halted the White Soxs seven-game losing streak to Cleveland.Nobody gave up. Guys just kept grinding, all the way through, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said.In the ninth, it would have been easy to go one, two, three, and just lay down. But we didnt give up. It was a total team effort, Eaton said.The White Sox will try to carry that momentum into the series finale on Thursday. The White Sox will send lefty Carlos Rodon (3-8, 4.32 ERA) to the mound against Clevelands Danny Salazar (11-4, 3.38).Rodon has never lost to Cleveland. In six career appearances, five of them starts, against the Indians, Rodon is 3-0 with a 1.75 ERA.Salazar will be making his first start since Aug. 1, when he pitched just two innings in a 12-5 loss to Minnesota. He went on the disabled the next day with right elbow inflammation.Salazar was selected to the American League All-Star team but did not pitch in the game at the Indians request because of concerns about the elbow. In five starts in June, Salazar was 5-0 with a 1.91 ERA. However, in his last five starts, he is 1-1 with a 7.88 ERA, capped by the trip onto the disabled list.Thursday will be Salazars ninth career start against the White Sox. His career record vs. Chicago is 5-2 with a 3.19 ERA. In two starts against the Sox this year, he is 2-0 with a 2.25 ERA.When Salazar is activated, he will take pitcher Josh Tomlins spot on the roster. Tomlin was placed on the family emergency list on Wednesday and returned to his home in Tyler, Texas. The family emergency list is a 3-5 day list.The Indians are 5-2 on the first seven games of their 11-game homestand, their longest homestand of the season.One player who will be seeing less time in the lineup going forward is outfielder Abraham Almonte, who has done some good things offensively and defensively in the 29 games he has played.In 81 at-bats Almonte is hitting .284 with a home run, nine RBI and three stolen bases. However, he is ineligible for the postseason because of his being suspended for the first 80 games of this season for testing positive for steroids during spring training.There are going to be times in the next six weeks when Abe isnt an obvious choice (to be in the lineup) that well play some other guys, manager Terry Francona said. Because if were fortunate enough to move on (into the postseason), were going to have to do it without him anyway.That figures to mean more playing time for outfielder Brandon Guyer, who has given a boost to the lineup since being acquired on Aug. 1 in a trade with Tampa Bay.In 11 games with the Indians, Guyer is hitting .462 with a home run and eight RBI.

Jimmy Wilde, for many Britains best ever boxer, first became world champion on this day [Dec. 18] 100 years ago.The little Welshman, who was just 5-foot-3 tall, was known as the The Mighty Atom and The Ghost with the Hammer in his Hand.Born in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, the son of a coal miner, Wilde was sent to work in the pits from a young age. But he escaped a life underground when he started to box aged 16 in fairground booths.He turned professional later in his teens and went 93-0-1 before he lost his unbeaten record. He totalled 136 bouts, though it was probably far more, with just three recorded defeats.Wilde served as a sergeant PT instructor based at Aldershot during the First World War and in 1916 he put together a string of significant wins.Wilde had claimed a version of the world title when he stopped Joe Symonds earlier in 1916 and also had victories over Sid Smith and Tancy Lee, who he knocked out for the European title.But he was not recognised as the undisputed flyweight champion until he halted his Italian-American opponent the Young Zulu KKid -- whose real name was Frankie di Melfi -- in the 11th round at Holborn Stadium. Balenciaga Shoes Cheap Womens. Wilde hurt Kid with a left to the jaw and the American sunk to one knee after taking a pummelling on the ropes. Wilde seized his chance with more heavy blows and when Kid went down again the Americans corner threw in the towel.Despite looking frail and with long, skinny limbs, Wilde was a fearsome champion. By the time he climbed into the ring to face Young Zulu Kid -- also known as Fighting Newsboy -- he had suffered only one defeat to Tancy Lee, which Wilde avenged in June 1916.The world flyweight champion toured America from December 1919 with 11 bouts in six months. Wilde held on to his world title until 1923, when he lost it to Filipino Pancho Villa in New York. After the seventh round knockout defeat, Wilde announced his retirement.Wilde died aged 76 in 1969, after being mugged a few years earlier at Cardiff railway station.
