CHICAGO -- James Shields is keeping his contract with the Chicago White Sox rather than become a free agent after tying for the big league lead in losses.The 32-year-old right-hander was acquired from San Diego on June 4 for pitcher Erik Johnson and shortstop prospect Fernando Tatis Jr.An All-Star in 2011, Shields was 13-7 in his first season with the Padres in 2015, then went 2-7 this year before the trade. He finished 6-19 with a 5.85 ERA, tying Tampa Bays Chris Archer for the most defeats.Shields agreed in February 2015 to a $75 million, four-year deal with the Padres that called for a $10 million salary in the first season and $21 million in each of the next three years. The agreement includes a $16 million club option for 2019 with a $2 million buyout.As part of the trade, San Diego sent Chicago $8,770,492 this year. Because he kept the contract, the Padres must send the White Sox an additional $11 million in each of the next two years, raising the total to $30,770,492.Game notes The White Sox claimed left-handed reliever Giovanni Soto off waivers from the Oakland Athletics. The 25-year-old Soto spent the 2016 season with Class AAA Iowa in the Chicago Cubs organization, going 1/3 with a 5.14 ERA (28 ER/49.0 IP) and 55 strikeouts over 33 appearances.

CHANTILLY, France -- The 6-1 shot Found won the Prix de lArc de Triomphe on Sunday, leading home a 1-2-3 for Irish trainer Aidan OBrien in one of Europes most prestigious flat races.Ridden by Ryan Moore, Found remained well positioned throughout and overhauled pacesetter Vedevani inside the final two furlongs and never looked like being caught at Chantilly.Weve had our eye on this for a long time, OBrien said. When Ryan rode (Found) as a two-year-old and said she could win an Arc, he was obviously right.Highland Reel, winner of the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot this summer, was second and Order Of St George, ridden by Frankie Dettori, was third.Im so delighted for everyone. Its a big team efffort, OBrien said.dddddddddddd Its a privilege to be here and be part of it. How can you see anything higher (in his career) than this? I couldnt dream this would happen. You know how difficult the Arc is.The Roger Varian-trained Postponed was the 15-8 favorite and arrived unbeaten this campaign, but never challenged and finished fifth, while Japanese hope Makahiki was never in contention.Its a feeling of disappointment as we went in hoping we would win, but the main thing is we still have a horse to go to war with and we can take him home and see how he comes out of it, Varian said.
