Air Max Tavas Cheap .Todd Frazier homered for 
the second straight game, Adam Eaton had four hits and the Chicago White Sox 
pulled away to beat the Twins 11-4 on Friday night.Brian Dozier homered for 
Minnesota, which ended a 13-game losing streak Thursday. The Twins have the 
majors worst record at 50-85 and could be mathematically eliminated from 
postseason consideration Saturday.Gibson (5-9), who had given up one earned run 
in 12 2/3 innings against Chicago this season, allowed five in 5 2/3 innings. 
The right-hander has allowed 30 earned runs in 39 2/3 innings over his past 
seven starts, including an Aug. 17 complete game in Atlanta where Gibson allowed 
three earned runs.Gibsons ERA stands at 5.31. Only Ervin Santana (3.54) and 
Hector Santiago (4.93) have better numbers among Minnesota starters, although 
Santiagos ERA in five starts since being acquired at the trade deadline is 
8.17.I dont know, Gibson said. Its been kind of frustrating ever since in 
Atlanta. I thought I kind of turned the corner and made an adjustment. Its been 
a couple times this year where I feel like Ive been on the verge of kind of 
figuring something out and then a big inning happens or a bad start happens.Nine 
times in 20 starts this season, and five of his last six, Gibson threw between 5 
and 5 2/3 innings.Im not saying that Im going back to the drawing board, but its 
to the point where its like, `Man, Im working as hard as I can and Im not really 
reaping any benefits of it. Its a frustrating act to feel like you have the 
stuff to go deep into a game and feel like youve settled down and let it get 
away from you, he said.Doziers three-run homer gave the Twins a 3-1 lead in the 
third. It was the 33rd of the season for the second baseman, who hit 13 in 
August and has a majors-best 19 since the All-Star break.But Fraziers home run 
tied the game in the fourth and Chicago added runs in the fifth and sixth to 
chase Gibson, who threw 61 of his 101 pitches for strikes.Carlos Rodon (6-8) 
tied a season-high with seven innings pitched for his career-high fourth 
straight win as the White Sox ended a four-game losing streak.Rodon wasnt as 
sharp as his previous five outings when he was 3-0 with a 1.47 ERA, with each 
one a quality start. He allowed seven hits, four runs -- three earned -- and hit 
two batters, but was more successful later in the game, retiring eight of the 
final nine hitters he faced.Minnesota had just one hit in the final four 
innings.Leading 5-4, Jose Abreu singled up the middle on a less-than-full swing 
to score two runs in a three-run eighth. Eaton had an RBI single and Melky 
Cabrera a two-run single in the ninth.Chicago tied a season-high with 16 hits. 
It had 15 in Thursdays 8-5 loss.They got a lot of runs, a lot of hits. Too much 
for us to overcome, Minnesota manager Paul Molitor said.TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: 
SS Tim Anderson, who left Thursdays game with a bruised right calf, did not 
play. The rookie, who has hit safely in 21 of his last 24 games, is day to 
day.Twins: LHP Buddy Boshers was reinstated from the 15-day DL after missing 20 
games with left elbow inflammation. ... OF Robbie Grossman missed his fourth 
straight game with a sore oblique.UP NEXTChicagos James Shields (5-16, 5.86), 
who was 0-4 with a 11.42 ERA in August, but allowed just two earned runs in six 
innings Monday against Detroit, is to face Santiago (10-8, 4.93) on Saturday.

a 10.89 ERA in his first four starts with the Twins.

Patrick Reed got an early start in golf. HOUSTON -- When 7-year-old Will 
Erickson penned a letter to Jeff Luhnow imploring the Houston Astros general 
manager not to trade George Springer, he never dreamed hed get a response.The 
reason was simple.Because hes busy, Will told The Associated Press on 
Wednesday.Will decided to write the letter when he heard the Astros could be 
looking for pitching this offseason and might need to trade somebody like 
Springer to get it. His letter was straightforward. It said: Please dont trade 
George Springer these are the reasons. 1. He is my favorite player. 2. I get my 
hair cut like his. 3. He is a team player.It turns out that Luhnow wasnt too 
busy to take some time out to get back to the second-grader. He tweeted a 
picture of the letter with the words: Sound logic dont you think?Will said it 
took him about 15 minutes to write the letter and decided it would be cool to 
write one instead of simply sending an email after a letter-writing project his 
class did recently. He wasnt nervous about reaching out to a baseball executive 
despite being in elementary school.No, because it was just a letter not like 
talking, he said.Hes been to quite a few Astros games and loves the work of 
Springer, who is an outfielder.I like how he robs homers and hits home runs, 
Will said.During the week Wills bedtime is 8 p.m. so he isnt able to watch much 
of Astros games live since they begin at 7:10 p.m. But he DVRs every game and 
gets to watch his beloved Springers work from the night before after school each 
day.As for the hairccut, Will decided to change his hairstyle after seeing 
Springers cool do, which has shaved sides and is longer on top.

Max. It was only supposed to be for a little while according to his 
parents, but now they cant get him to change it and say its part of his 
personality.Theres no curls (on mine) but its the same, Will said.After Luhnow 
tweeted Wills letter it got a lot of attention on the internet, with scores of 
people retweeting it and dozens of news stories being written about it. There 
was even a segment on the local news in Houston where his father discussed the 
letter that Wills teacher played on Wednesday for his class.They called me 
famous, Will said about his classmates.Will hasnt met Springer, but is a little 
worried about how hell respond if he ever gets the chance.If I saw him I would 
faint, Will said.When he isnt talking trades with baseball executives Will is a 
typical elementary school boy. He plays little league baseball and fit his first 
interview in between school and a trip to see Santa Claus at a nearby Christmas 
village.Its not much of a surprise what he planned to ask Jolly Old Saint Nick 
for on Wednesday night. He wants real snow or a baseball lesson from Springer at 
Minute Maid Park.Both are a tall order, but since Will lives in a place where 
temperatures in December can soar into the 70s, his parents arent sure which 
wish is more unlikely. ' ' '
