JOHN DEERE CLASSIC

MLB All-Star Kinsler paces Rangers ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — All-Star second baseman Ian Kinsler extended his majors-best hitting streak to 25 games with three hits and drove in three runs for the Texas Rangers, who held on for a wild 12-11 victory over the AL Central-leading Chicago White Sox on Sunday. Marlon Byrd hit a tiebreaking RBI double in the seventh that finally put Texas ahead to stay, and Michael Young, one of four Rangers going to Yankee Stadium for the All-Star game, added a two-run single to push his hitting streak to 15 games. The Rangers (50-46) won for the ninth time in 13 games. Carlos Quentin and Jermaine Dye homered for Chicago (54-40), which had a season-high 22 hits. The 1 White Sox maintained a ⁄2 game division lead over Minnesota despite their third Amy Andrews/The Daily Iowan loss in four games. Kenny Perry lines up a putt on No. 3 at the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Ill., on Sunday. Perry three-putted the hole for a bogie. Chicago scored three times on five hits in the ninth off Rangers closer C.J.
