CHICAGO -- Jose Abreu has been at his best since reuniting with his young son.The slugger hit the first of four White Sox home runs and Jose Quintana threw 7 2/3 solid innings to lead Chicago past the Seattle Mariners 9-3 on Saturday night.Avisail Garcia and Alex Avila hit consecutive homers during a four-run fifth and Tyler Saladino added a two-run shot in the seventh, all off struggling reliever Vidal Nuno.Abreu extended his hitting streak to 10 games and his on-base streak to 23 with a solo shot during a two-run first against Ariel Miranda (1-1).Abreu, who defected from Cuba in 2013, went more than two years without seeing his son Dariel until a December trip to the island nation organized by Major League Baseball.Dariel, now 5, traveled to the U.S. for the first time earlier this month. They were reunited in Miami, and Dariel will be with his dad for another week or so before returning to Cuba.Abreu is hitting .351 with four homers in his past 10 games. Coincidence?We know hes happier. That part is pretty obvious, that he has a little more to him, manager Robin Ventura said. This game does enough to beat you down that if you can find something like that, it just helps you when you come to the ballpark.Abreu had already dressed and dashed off to be with his family when reporters were allowed in the clubhouse.When he talks he seems relaxed, Quintana said. He talks a lot about his family. Its fun. Im happy for him.Quintana (11-9) allowed two runs -- one earned -- and five hits, struck out eight and lowered his ERA to 2.77 in Chicagos fifth win in seven games.After a hot August start that got them into playoff contention, the Mariners have lost four of five.The left-handed Miranda pitched four innings, allowing three runs and five hits while throwing just 47 of 90 pitches for strikes.The biggest thing was fastball command. He wasnt locating it great, manager Scott Servais said. Thats his pitch.Quintana allowed a leadoff double to Leonys Martin in the first, and he scored an unearned run thanks to Avilas passed ball. But Avila made up for it in his first game off the disabled list with a solo shot in the fifth.Left fielder Melky Cabrera, back after missing two games with an illness, added a first-inning sacrifice fly and threw out Robinson Cano trying to stretch a single to help squash Seattles best rally off Quintana.Justin Morneaus first triple of the season in the fifth scored Todd Frazier. Garcia followed with a two-run shot off Nuno. Garcia also doubled twice.TRAINERS ROOMMariners: 3B Kyle Seager went 1 for 4 after missing three games with a bruised right foot. Seagers return, along with an upcoming schedule heavy with left-handed opposing pitchers, led Seattle to option OF Norichika Aoki to Triple-A Tacoma. ... Servais said RHP Tom Wilhelmsen (back spasms) was not crazy about going on the disabled list. We really dont have time where were at in the bullpen right now to give him five or six days, Servais said.White Sox: RHP Miguel Gonzalez (groin) threw a simulated game. Hes eligible to come off the disabled list.OOPSSeattles Chris Iannetta took ball three, tossed his bat and jogged all the way to first in the fifth before realizing he hadnt walked. Quintana struck him out on the next pitch.NEW FACESAmbidextrous pitcher Pat Venditte, a reliever acquired from Toronto this month, joined Seattle with his special glove after a stint in Triple-A.Splits have said Im a little bit better from the left side, Venditte said. So I would imagine thats how Ill be used here.Also arriving in a flurry of moves were INF Dae-Ho Lee from Tacoma and reliever Dan Altavilla, who was wide-eyed after getting called up from Double-A Jackson.Altavilla hit 100 mph in a perfect eighth and struck out Frazier in his major league debut.My family in the stands just going crazy, it was tough to hold back my emotions there, he said.UP NEXTSeattle RHP Taijuan Walker (4-8, 4.14 ERA) faces LHP Carlos Rodon (4-8, 4.02) to close the four-game series Sunday.

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France -- South Koreans In Gee Chun and Sung Hyun Park shot 8-under 63 on Thursday to share the first-round lead in the Evian Championship, the last of the LPGA Tours five majors.Top-ranked Lydia Kos bid to defend her title -- and win a third career major by the age of 19 -- got off to a rocky start with a 70.It was tricky for me because on the back nine I was not hitting fairways, said Ko, who has 14 career wins on the U.S. LPGA Tour. Hopefully Ill be able to hit some fairways tomorrow.Chun, the 2015 U.S. Womens Open champion, said she felt nervous after missing the cut here last year but hardly let it show.I could see the putting lines and I was good rolling the ball on those lines, she said. The greens are getting softer this year.While Kos play was patchy, with a bogey and only two birdies, second-ranked Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand had a day to forget with a 2-over 73 featuring a triple bogey.Ko and Jutanugarn have a good chance at Evian of taking the Annika Major Award, which rewards the major winner with the best combined record at all five majors of the season, and is named after 10-time major winner Annika Sorenstam.American Annie Park had an eagle and five birdies to match Chinas Shanshan Feng at 64.Parks performance caught the eye; and not least because her mother was caddying for her.That was fun. It was good to have my mum back on the bag. The last time she caddieed was Hawaii in April, she said.dddddddddddd She keeps things light and does some dances out there.Ranked 201st, Annie Park joined the tour this year. She showed good composure in overcast and somewhat drizzly weather conditions on the picturesque course perched over Lake Geneva, enjoying a run of birdie-birdie-eagle on her front nine, then starting and finishing with birdies on the back nine.American Angela Stanford had a 65, and South Koreans So Yeon Ryu and Eun-Hee Ji shot 66.Starting in muggy afternoon conditions, Ko played in a group with South Korean Hyo Joo Kim, the 2014 champion, and Norways Suzann Pettersen, the 2013 winner.When Ko sank her first birdie of the day, a 45-foot effort on the fifth hole, it drew a rueful smile from Pettersen, who had just missed with her birdie attempt from a similar distance.Ko bogeyed the eighth hole and she was again in trouble on the 10th when her tee shot landed in the rough between two trees.She saved par with a good escape shot close to the green.Its a good thing my wood shots and chip shots were good enough, said Ko, who last year became the youngest man or woman to be ranked No. 1.Womens PGA champion Brooke Henderson of Canada had a 69.U.S. Womens Open winner Brittany Lang had two double bogeys and three bogeys in 76.
