CHICAGO -- The Chicago White Sox have had a roller-coaster season, and James Shields has experienced as many sudden drops as anyone.Shields allowed four home runs Sunday before being pulled in the second inning, and the White Sox lost to the Baltimore Orioles 10-2. Baltimores Manny Machado became the second player in major league history to homer in the first, second and third innings, driving in a career-high seven runs.Today I was pretty much bad all around, Shields said. I wasnt hitting my spots. I was leaving the ball over the plate, and they were capitalizing on it. You cant do that against this team.Machado hit a two-run homer in the first and a three-run shot in the second off Shields, who got only four outs.Machado hit another two-run homer in the third off Matt Albers. According to STATS, the only other player to do that was Carl Reynolds of the White Sox on July 2, 1930, at the Yankees.Its awesome, Machado said. Its tough to do. First off, you dont get at-bats every inning. To go out there and more or less get three homers, its pretty cool. Its pretty awesome, Im not going to lie.Chris Davis followed Machados second homer with his own and J.J. Hardy added a two-run shot before Shields (5-14) left to boos. The Orioles have hit a major league-best 168 homers this season.Dylan Bundy (5-3) stuck out a career-high nine in six innings in Baltimores fifth win in seven games.One night after Machado couldnt come up with a popup that drove in the winning run for Chicago, the 24-year-old slugger became the first Baltimore player to homer three times since Davis on May 20, 2014, against Pittsburgh.The All-Star third baseman pulled all three shots to left field on the warm, breezy day to make it 10-0 and give him 25 homers on the season. Hes ninth player in big league history to homer in any three consecutive innings.I know (Shields) is upset about the first one that Manny hit, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. It came back over the plate, but (when) youve got a guy who was extremely hot and is one of the best players in the game, you cant make mistakes like that. (Machado) just single-handedly put us in the hole.Machado grounded into a double play in the fifth, lined to center in the seventh and grounded to third in the ninth, failing to become the first Baltimore player to hit four homers in a game.The Orioles, who sat home run leader Mark Trumbo (31) for the first time this season, showed the depth of their power as they opened a one-game lead over Toronto in the AL East.Most of the damage came against Shields, who had improved after a rough start with the White Sox following a June trade with San Diego. He was charged with eight runs and six hits with two walks and two hit batters, marking the sixth start the right-hander has allowed at least six runs.Jose Abreu hit his third homer in four days for the White Sox, who have dropped eight of 11.Bundy, a rookie reliever-turned-starter, allowed two runs and four hits.TRUMBO SITSTrumbo, 0 for 9 with six strikeouts against Shields, was out of the lineup for the first time in 110 games.Im trying to get everybody a day (off) on this trip, manager Buck Showalter said.Davis, who homered for the first time since July 10, was back at cleanup after being dropped to sixth Saturday.TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: CF Austin Jackson (knee surgery) visited teammates Saturday and is off crutches, but isnt close to beginning baseball work. ...

I had a little bit more time because of the defeat at Wimbledon to spend quality time with family, regroup a little bit and start training on hard courts that I obviously enjoy playing the most. So I look forward to it.In early July, the world No. 1 fell to Sam Querrey in the third round of Wimbledon, a loss that stopped a stretch of four straight Grand Slam titles for Djokovic.Djokovic is a three-time champion in Canada and holds the record for most Masters Series wins all time with 29.If the draw holds form, Djokovic would play?Stan Wawrinka?in Sundays final. The route to the championship match became far more seamless for both last week when Andy Murray, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal all withdrew from Toronto.Barring another letdown, Djokovic should get in much-needed reps -- especially with the Rio Olympics and US Open looming.Thats the kind of my thinking right now -- just ennjoy, play well, play singles and doubles, get as many hours on the court as possible, Djokovic said.ddddddddddddDjokovic said he didnt get to dwell much on his Wimbledon loss, the first time he has not reached the second week of a Grand Slam since becoming No. 1 in July 2014.Obviously, I didnt enjoy losing in the first week of a Grand Slam, but on the other hand, next day it was already behind me, Djokovic said. I had so much things to do in my private life, off the tennis [court], that I was very much engaged in the other activities. First of all with being a father and a husband, and everything else aside [from] that, so I didnt really think too much about it.Djokovic has put the setback in perspective, understanding that with six titles this season, including his first at Roland Garros, he has been utterly dominant in 2016.Winning the French Open was very special, very emotional, Djokovic said. Im just glad I was able to go through that part of the season in that way and experience the up and downs, and now its a new beginning. ' ' '
