KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Jason Vargas makes his first start with the Royals since July 21, 2015 when Kansas City hosts the Chicago White Sox on Saturday.Vargas, who had Tommy John surgery after that outing, will be on a 45-pitch limit and three innings against the Chicago White Sox, who rallied to win the first contest of the four-game series 7-4.Manager Ned Yost said they hope to get Vargas three starts before the season ends and 10 to 15 innings heading into spring training.My arm feels good, Vargas said. Its what I do for a living, so Im looking forward to getting back out and doing my job.Vargas went 0-2 with a 5.85 ERA in six rehab starts with three different minor league clubs. In his final three with Triple-A Omaha, Vargas threw 58, 74 and 83 pitches. In his final start Sept. 1 against Round Rock, Vargas allowed two runs on five hits, including a home run, in 5 2/3 innings. He walked none and struck out 10.Its been a pretty smooth ride, Vargas said of the rehab not having any setbacks. I knew if everything went as it should, there would be the possibility I would have the opportunity to pitch this year.Vargas, 33, won 11 games for the Royals in 2014 and went 1-0 with a 3.52 ERA in three postseason starts. He was 5-2 with a 3.98 in nine starts last year before the surgery.The White Sox counter with right-hander Miguel Gonzalez, who is 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA in two September starts after coming off the disabled list with a groin injury. He is 1-4 with a 4.46 ERA in seven starts against the Royals, while walking six and striking out 25.Jarrod Dyson is 8-for-11 against Gonzalez. Catcher Salvador Perez is 6-for-17 with a home run. Eric Hosmer has only a .176 batting average in 17 at-bats against Gonzalez, but has a home run and five RBI.The White Sox trailed 4-2 in the eighth Friday when Chicago third baseman Todd Frazier ducked out of the way of Kelvin Herreras high and inside pitch. Frazier was upset and Perez stepped in front of him. Frazier eventually doubled in the at-bat, which began a four-run White Sox rally.When stuff like that happens, and a guy responds and gets on base, you dont know how much it affects the other side but on your side you zero in a little bit, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. I think it narrows the sights some.The inning also included Carlos Sanchezs three-run homer, his first home run of the season.The White Sox are 7-3 in their past 10 games, while the Royals have dropped five in a row to fall out of postseason contention.

South Sydney have leapt to the defence of coach Michael Maguire as they prepare to miss the NRL finals for the first time under his stewardship.Pressure is mounting on Maguire with the Rabbitohs losing their past six games and sitting six points outside the top eight in 13th with seven rounds remaining.The Rabbitohs equation is simple - win seven from seven or perish before the finals and standing in their way is a tough draw that includes five top-eight sides including Cronulla, Melbourne, Canterbury and Canberra.Despite being one of the big underperformers this season, the likes of George Burgess and Alex Johnston praised Maguires leadership and dismissed criticisms of his coaching style.Asked if Maguire was the man to lead them out of their lull, Burgess said: Weve got a lot of belief in Michael Maguire.Hes taken us to some great times. Theres highs and low in sport so youve just got to ride through them.The Rabbitohs have this year looked shades of the side that won the premiership twoo years ago under Maguire.ddddddddddddTheir 30-10 defeat to Brisbane on Saturday night was the 11th straight match in which they have conceded 20-plus points.During their premiership breakthrough season, they let in an average of just 15.1 points during the regular rounds, the lowest in the competition, and Burgess was at a loss to explain why their defensive resolve had abandoned them.Souths built their title win on the back of their dominance through the middle, but they are ranked 15th in the competition for metres made in 2016, only behind last-placed Newcastle.Maguire has at various stages of his career been accused of pushing his players too hard but Johnston said he had no concerns about burn out.He said it was up to the players to step up.It comes down to the boys. Weve just got to bring it all out on the field and bring it all together, Johnston said. ' ' '
