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. ...

On the other hand, we believe very strongly in patriotism in the NFL. I personally believe very strongly in that.Goodell added that NFL players have a visible platform for their viewpoints. With that comes responsibility to use those platforms properly.SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Colin Kaepernick was encouraged that President Barack Obama recently weighed in on his national anthem protest by praising him for generating conversation about social issues.Obama said Monday that he had no doubt that the San Francisco 49ers quarterback is sincere and cares about some real, legitimate issues. He also said approvingly that Kaepernick has generated more national conversation about issues that need to be talked about since his refusal to stand for the anthem became public less than two weeks ago.Kaepernick did not stand for the national anthem all preseason and his protest became public after he sat before a home game against Green Bay on Aug. 26. Kaepernick has cited racial injustice and police brutality among the many reasons for his actions and said he plans to continue to not stand for the anthem during the regular season.BOYDS, Md. -- The Washington Spirit prevented Seattle midfielder Megan Rapinoe from kneeling again during the national anthem by altering its pregame ceremonies rather than subject our fans and friends to the disrespect we feel such an act would represent.The National Womens Soccer League team moved up the anthem, playing it while the teams were off the field at the Maryland SoccerPlex.On Sunday before the Reigns match in Chicago, Rapinoe knelt during the anthem in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick -- the San Francisco quarterback who has refused to stand during the anthem to protest racial injustice and minority oppression.

That finished the countdown and shattered more stereotypes about what athletes with disabilities can do.The president of the International Paralympic Committee, Philip Craven, made a similar point with his speech. Craven, who lost the use of his legs in a rock-climbing fall at the age of 16, reminded Brazilians they have their own problems to overcome.Brazil is mired in its worst recession in generations. The country just removed its elected president, and these games needed a government bailout of almost $80 million to make it to the starting line.WRESTLINGMINNEAPOLIS -- Longtime Minnesota wrestling coach J Robinson was fired after the university said an investigation into an alleged drug ring within the program revealed he wasnt forthcoming to school officials and made unauthorized promises of amnesty to his athletes.Robinson coached the Gophers for 30 years and led the team to three national championships, developing a reputation as a hard-nosed, outspoken and occasionally combative figure on campus. His teams had as much success as any Gophers coach of his era, but he became embroiled in the drug scandal this spring when police investigated allegations that more than a dozen wrestlers sold and used the anti-anxiety drug Xanax.Police previously declined to file charges in the case, citing a lack of evidence.
