ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Matt Shoemaker once joked about a curse that plagued him every five days. It appears as though the curse has been lifted.Shoemaker scattered six hits and struck out a career-high 13 in his first complete game in the majors, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Chicago White Sox 1-0 on Saturday night.Matty has talked about trying to get over that hump and trying to get outs late in the game to close out, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. Certain times this year he hasnt been able to close the door. Tonight he did.James Shields threw a two-hitter but was outdueled by Shoemaker, who walked none. Shoemaker (5-9) has allowed only four earned runs in his last five home starts.Adam Eaton doubled to lead off the ninth and Melky Cabrera singled with one out to put runners on the corners. Shoemaker hoped for a double-play ball with Todd Frazier at the plate but couldnt get it. Instead, he struck out Frazier and Justin Morneau to end the game.Just trying to execute a really good pitch, Shoemaker said. Strikeouts are good, but in that situation a double play is the best-case scenario.Shields (4-11) allowed a leadoff triple to Yunel Escobar in the first inning but wouldnt allow another hit until the eighth. He walked two, struck out two and threw just 91 pitches.For the most part, I was pounding the strike zone, Shields said. I got behind the count in a few innings and then got myself back into it, got some ground balls. Me and (catcher Dioner Navarro) were on the same page rhythm-wise and it was good.Mike Trout drove in Escobar with a groundout in the first. It was the second straight game and the second time this season the Angels have won without Trout or Albert Pujols hitting safely.Theres not very many times that the leadoff hitter decides the game, Shields said. Its a tough loss right there. We need to win these games, theres no doubt about it, but we need to move on.Chicago has now been held scoreless in its last three games and hasnt scored since July 9 against the Atlanta Braves.White Sox manager Robin Ventura said the frustration is visible and its starting to wear on hitters. However, Ventura isnt worried that it will become a long-term problem.You wear it if its just one game, let alone three, Ventura said. Weve got to figure it out and well get there.The Angels won the three-game series with the victory and the White Sox have won just one series against Los Angeles since 2010.The White Sox optioned infielder Carlos Sanchez to Triple-A Charlotte following the game. A corresponding roster move will be announced Sunday.TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: LHP Carlos Rodon played catch from 60 feet on Saturday. Rodon said hed like to return within the next week but is still unsure of his timeline and Ventura said he would likely need a rehab start. The White Sox placed Rodon on the 15-day disabled list on July 10 with a sprained left wrist.UP NEXTWhite Sox: RHP Jacob Turner will make his first major league start since 2014 on Sunday when hes recalled to take Rodons spot in the rotation. Turner missed most of 2015 with elbow issues and has gone 4-7 with a 4.71 ERA in 18 starts for Triple-A Charlotte.Angels: RHP Jered Weaver looks to continue his career dominance of the White Sox in Sundays series finale. Weaver is 11-2 with 1.94 ERA in 14 career starts against Chicago and 7-0 since 2011Mike Edwards Youth Jersey . -- Stanfords Kevin Danser knelt on one knee and hardly moved on the sideline as Michigan State celebrated its Rose Bowl victory and his Cardinal teammates made their way to the locker room.

Custom Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jerseys . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Mike Alstott Youth Jersey . -- Lou Brocks shoulder-to-shoulder collision with Bill Freehan during the 1968 World Series and Pete Roses bruising hit on Ray Fosse in the 1970 All-Star game could become relics of baseball history, like the dead-ball era.BERKELEY, Calif. -- After the celebration quieted and the meeting room emptied, California center Chen Yue popped her head around the corner to offer congratulations to her coach.Chen, youre going to be a big sister, the coach, Lindsay Gottlieb, told the grinning, 6-foot-7 sophomore -- an only child from Beijing.Gottlieb pulled a big surprise on her players after practice Saturday: She told them she is pregnant.Oh baby, what a moment for these women.Im going to be a big sister! Chen responded, noting she and the baby might even share a May birthday. Im so excited!Gottlieb has been holding periodic big-picture sessions with players, calling them Lessons with Geezy. The theme for Saturdays post-practice meeting was, fittingly, family.After the players iced down and grabbed a snack, they were greeted on a big screen by the message FAMILY ... LESSONS WITH GEEZY -- NOVEMBER 5, 2016.Gottlieb scrolled through baby photos of each player, coach and staff member, and the group guessed who was who. At the end, Gottlieb began describing the youngest sibling in the family and showed an ultrasound photo of her own baby on the screen.The image was met with confusion -- until Gottlieb tapped her tummy and got emotional.And the next one is the youngest sibling. Can anyone guess the next picture? It is so young. ... Its all your sibling, coming in May! Gottlieb said, bringing her players out of their seats in celebration.Gottlieb is 13-plus weeks along, due May 9, andd she will welcome the baby with longtime partner Patrick Martin.dddddddddddd. Her Golden Bears will open the season Friday at Saint Marys.After the sly reveal, Gottlieb got hugs and cheers from players -- some stunned, some already suspicious given that Gottlieb, 39, was often sick during the first trimester. She held a bouquet of flowers in her right hand from director of operations Jill Culbertson and held her left hand over her belly.Stop! Thats not funny! Is this a joke? senior KC Waters hollered from the back row.I called it! I called it!
