Deadspin | Angels, White Sox looking for offensive consistency <div id=""><section id="0" class=" w-full"><div class="xl:container mx-0 !px-4 py-0 pb-4 !mx-0 !px-0"><img src="https://images.deadspin.com/tr:w-900/28694862.jpg" srcset="https://images.deadspin.com/tr:w-900/28694862.jpg" alt="MLB: Chicago White Sox at Kansas City Royals" class="w-full" fetchpriority="high" loading="eager"/><span class="text-0.8 leading-tight">Apr 9, 2026; Kansas City, Missouri, USA; Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Anthony Kay (18) throws a pitch in the first inning against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Peter Aiken-Imagn Images<!-- --> <!-- --> </span></div></section><section id="section-1"> <p>One month into the season, the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Angels have experienced extreme positives at the plate to go with frustrating negatives.</p> </section><section id="section-2"> <p>As the teams begin a three-game set in Chicago on Monday, the aim remains to build consistency — with victories hopefully to follow.</p> </section><section id="section-3"> <p>After outscoring the New York Yankees and San Diego Padres 19-4 on April 16 and 17 to move a game above .500, the Angels managed just 17 runs in their next seven games before Sunday. Seven of those came in one contest.</p> </section><section id="section-4"> <p>While Los Angeles collected 16 hits on Sunday — including three each from Zach Neto and Josh Lowe — the pitching staff couldn’t deliver. The Angels squandered a 6-0 lead in an eventual 11-9, 10-inning loss to the host Kansas City Royals, who earned a three-game series sweep.</p> </section><section id="section-5"> <p>First pitch was moved up about three hours to avoid inclement weather in the forecast. The teams endured a rain delay of one hour, 29 minutes in the seventh inning.</p> </section><section id="section-6"> <p>“It is what it is,” Angels manager Kurt Suzuki said. “It’s better than coming back on your off day. As a player, it’s tough. You’ve got your routine and all that stuff, but at the end of the day, you’ve got to audible sometimes and you’ve gotta make things work.”</p> </section><section id="section-7"> <p>Chicago has scuffled on the heels of a recent power surge that saw first baseman Munetaka Murakami belt five home runs during a 4-2 road trip against the Athletics and Arizona Diamondbacks.</p> </section><section id="section-8"> <p>Murakami went deep again during Friday’s series opening 5-4 victory against Washington and is tied with Houston’s Yordan Alvarez for the major league lead with 11 homers. Still, Murakami was just 1-for-12 with six strikeouts in the series with the Nationals, as the White Sox lost two of three.</p> </section><br/><section id="section-9"> <p>Chicago collected only four hits during Sunday’s 2-1, 10-inning loss, as Tristan Peters drove in the lone run with a single in extra innings.</p> </section> <section id="section-10"> <p>The White Sox hope it’s merely a bump in the road as they try to stop a stretch of three straight home series losses.</p> </section><section id="section-11"> <p>“I’ve said a few times (it’s a) multi-faceted offense when this thing’s firing off at all cylinders,” Chicago hitting coach Derek Shomon said. “We have guys that can slug, we have guys that can move the baseball forward, we have guys that … can and will lay down a bunt.</p> </section><section id="section-12"> <p>“That’s cool. It’s not just a one-trick pony. Even though some nights it feels like it is, right?”</p> </section><section id="section-13"> <p>White Sox manager Will Venable had no update Sunday on the status of left fielder Tanner Murray, who left the game in the 10th inning with a left shoulder injury.</p> </section><section id="section-14"> <p>“We’ll evaluate him and hope for the best,” Venable said.</p> </section><section id="section-15"> <p>The Angels on Sunday placed catcher Logan O’Hoppe on the injured list with a fractured left wrist.</p> </section><section id="section-16"> <p>Left-hander Anthony Kay (1-1, 5.57 ERA), who has never faced the Angels, is set to get the call for the White Sox. Kay has worked in bulk relief twice in his five outings and he scuffled through his shortest start of the season in Wednesday’s loss at Arizona. He allowed eight runs and eight hits in 3 2/3 innings with three walks and a strikeout.</p> </section><section id="section-17"> <p>Righty Jack Kochanowicz (2-0, 3.10) will get the call for the Angels. After allowing six runs (five earned) in four innings in his season debut on March 29, Kochanowicz has pitched to a 1.80 ERA in four April starts covering 25 innings. He has made four starts against the White Sox in his career with no decisions and a 2.77 ERA.</p> </section><br/><section id="section-18"> <p>–Field Level Media</p> </section> </div> #Deadspin #Angels #White #Sox #offensive #consistency

Manu Bhaker’s confidence surges as Olympic qualification cycle nears <div id="content-body-70911934" itemprop="articleBody"><p>India’s double Olympic medallist shooter Manu Bhaker is brimming with confidence ahead of the new season, determined to reignite her competitive spark after a quiet spell following her Paris Olympics glory.</p><p>With the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics qualification cycle kicking off this year, Manu has her sights firmly set on the Asian Games and the World Championships—targets she believes will restore the competitive edge that powered her to two bronze medals at the 2024 Olympics.</p><p>“We have the Asian Games (in Japan) and the World Championships coming up at the end of this year, so definitely we are looking forward to the two major competitions,” said the 24-year-old pistol ace on the sidelines of an event, marking 75 years of the National Rifle Association of India (NRAI) on Monday.</p><p>“So, the preparations which me and my coach we have, we sat down sometime back and we planned what are the (upcoming) competitions and what is the preparedness. I feel we have all the things sorted and hopefully we will do very well,” added the Jhajjar shooter who has endured a relatively quiet spell since her 2024 Paris success, managing only a 10m air pistol World Cup silver last year and a 25m pistol silver at the Asian Championships in New Delhi this year.</p><p>Manu welcomed the return of shooting to the programme at the 2030 Commonwealth Games in India after the sport was left out of both the 2022 edition in Birmingham and the upcoming Games in Glasgow.</p><p>“My first breakthrough was in the Commonwealth Games that was in 2018 Australia (Gold Coast). It is sad (that it was not part of the CWG curriculum for two successive editions), but at the same time I am also looking forward to the 2030 Games.</p><p>“We will be hosting the Commonwealth Games so I am looking forward. I am sure India will do great,” she added.</p><p>Manu Bhaker also spoke about her personal growth, revealing a deeper spiritual side that took shape around the 2024 Paris Olympics.</p><p>“Yes, I am a very spiritual person. That journey began around the time of the Olympics, and I’m really happy to be continuing on that path.”</p><p class="publish-time" id="end-of-article">Published on Apr 27, 2026</p></div> #Manu #Bhakers #confidence #surges #Olympic #qualification #cycle #nears
