CHICAGO -- Jeff Samardzija was at home pitching on the South Side. Samardzija threw a complete game, two-hit shutout and Julio Borbon hit a two-run home run and the Chicago Cubs beat the Chicago White Sox 7-0 on Monday. Samardzija (3-6) pitched the Cubs first complete game shutout since Randy Wells shut out the Giants on Aug. 29, 2011. The last time the Cubs shut out an opponent as a team came against the Rockies on Aug. 26, 2012. The first White Sox hit came from Conor Gillaspie in the third inning. Samardzija then got Jeff Keppinger to hit into a double play as he faced the minimum through four innings. He struck out Alejandro De Aza to end the sixth. He then retired 12 straight before giving up a walk to Tyler Flowers in the ninth inning. He bounced back by striking out De Aza, then after a single to Alexei Ramirez, he got Alex Rios to pop out to end the game. The once anticipated interleague series in Chicago lost some of its lustre with the fans as the Cubs entered the game in last place in the NL Central and the White Sox are struggling to play .500. The announced attendance was 30,631 at U.S. Cellular Field. Samardzija who grew up in Northwest Indiana, enjoys pitching against the White Sox. "I love this place," Samardzija said. "I loved coming here to watch games here as a kid. I loved watching these guys play for a long time. "Ive always been a fan, so to come here and to have my whole family here, 30 minutes from home from my backyard, its fun. I love being here. I love the atmosphere here. I love these games against the White Sox, they are always fun, unfortunately they cut them down to four. This is what baseball is all about, these rivalry games," "You got the smell of the steel mills in the background, its not the most beautiful scent in the world, but it smells like home." Anthony Rizzo doubled and hit a two-run triple in his first Crosstown Classic and Alfonso Soriano added three hits as the Cubs won two in a row after losing six straight. Cubs manager Dale Sveum was impressed by how Samardzija featured his fastball. "Sometimes he reverts back to probably thinking a little too much instead of just knowing what he is. He is a big-time power guy," Sveum said. "You guys saw his split-finger pitch tonight, it is pretty much a non-hittable pitch when he is committed it and throwing it like that. Not that hes not a pitcher, but sometimes he wants to be this pitcher that is pitching like a Greg Maddux. He is not that kind of a pitcher." It was Samardzijas first career shutout. "I am going out with the mindset to pitch deep in every game. If you want to be one of the guys the team turns to in a big situation, thats the number one thing, pitch deep into games and give your offence a chance to win the game. We saw what happened tonight." White Sox starter Jose Quintana (3-2) allowed four runs and four hits. He struck out five and allowed three walks. The White Sox lost for the second time in seven games. With one out in the first inning, Quintana walked Starlin Castro then struck out Rizzo as Castro was attempting to steal second. Flowers was unable to throw to second because Ramirez forgot to cover second base. Soriano followed with a single off the left field wall to score Castro. "Again, I dont know if it was the pitcher who made us flat, but there was enough of a lack of focus that needs to be there," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. In the fifth inning, Borbon hit a two-run shot to right on the first pitch. It was his first homer and the first RBIs of the season. Rizzo led off the sixth with a double and scored on Scott Hairstons sacrifice fly to make it 4-0. In the seventh, Rizzo hit a two-run triple off the centre field wall and scored on Sorianos single to extend the Cubs lead to 7-0. White Sox reliever Nate Jones allowed three runs and four hits in the seventh inning. "Right now he needs to fix it here," Ventura said. "Weve seen it. Its there. I dont know if its the lack of confidence or what. Stuff-wise, its not a velocity issue at all. Its going to be more location and the confidence of being able to continue to do that." NOTES: White Sox ace Chris Sale is on schedule to start Tuesday night against the Cubs after missing his previous start because of tendinitis in his left shoulder. The left-hander had no setbacks after a bullpen session on Sunday. ... RHP Edwin Jackson is the Cubs scheduled starter Tuesday.

China Shoes Outlet . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide.Henrik Stenson vowed to put in extra work on the practice range in Dubai as he reflected on a second-round 69 featuring two bizarre incidents at the DP World Tour Championship. Stenson carded four birdies and just his second bogey of the tournament despite not playing great, and he will go into the weekend on three under alongside Danny Willett, his closest rival for the Race to Dubai crown.The Open champion looked perplexed when calling for a ruling on the second hole when somebody picked up his ball, and he was shaken on the 13th when a blocked his tee shot into the gallery, where a female spectator was struck on the head. Henrik Stenson tees off on the second, where he would later have his ball stolen As the Swede offered his apologies before she headed off for treatment, the unfortunate spectator informed him that he was her favourite golfer, and Stenson said: I didnt expect her to say that after being hit!It was a very unfortunate circumstance. I flared my five-iron right and Im standing there thinking, is it going in the bunker or flying over the bunker, and next thing, I see it go into the crowd and hit someone. It was actually a miss-hit up into the wind into the right and it went further than the pin number, so something was quirky there.

But I had some reports later in the round that she was doing okay, and of course, you get shocked when you get hit like that and its painful. Yeah, Im just making sure that were going to get her details so I can send her something nice.On the bizarre incident on the second, he added: I dont know if it was a marshal or who it was, but we hit it right short right of the green, and then we heard someone picked it up. Stenson hit a female spectator with his tee shot at the 13th So I dont know why anyone that enters a golf tournament is picking up a golf ball insides the ropes, that seems a bit weird to me. But it happens, unfortunately. I had to call for a ruling and then we estimated where it was supposed to be and dropped it there and on we go. McIlroy back on form Rory McIlroy bounced back from a flat opening day with a second-round 68 in Dubai Stenson made only one birdie in his opening 72 that included 16 parss, but he attributed his second effort to a vast improvement on the greens as he moved to three under for the tournament.ddddddddddddIm definitely not playing great, but I had some more chances today and the putter was behaving a lot better than yesterday, he said. I holed out nicely and made a few for birdie, so it was definitely the putter that kept it together.Its a bit of a grind, were not playing our best but Im hanging in there and fighting hard. I know the guys are going to come at me. I know its going to be a long weekend and they are going to keep on pushing me. So Im just trying to do my best, and Im going to do a bit of practice; its needed. Danny Willett reflects on a number of missed chances during his second round 70 in Dubai Willett, who trails Stenson by almost 300,000 points in the Race to Dubai standings, birdied two of the first three holes only to give both shots back with bogeys at five and seven.But the Masters champion negotiated the remainder of his round error free and picked up further shots at the 14th and 16th to return a 70 that he believed should have been far lower had it not been for some poor putting. Danny Willett was frustrated by his poor form on the greens I hit it good again, but Ive been very bad with the putter on the back nine, he said. Just a shame to only take two out of the last six or seven holes so its a bit frustrating, but there are two rounds left.Last week I was hitting it bad and that was frustrating, and this week Im hitting it good and its frustrating because the blade is not working. Things need to get back to going our way a little bit and theres a really good score not that far away.Upgrade to Sky Sports now to watch Man Utd v Arsenal this Saturday and get the first six months half price!
