One pitch, one swing and Mark DeRosa showed the kind of threat he can be for San Francisco's offense. DeRosa lined a sharp single over shortstop Omar Vizquel's head in his debut at-bat after being limited following October wrist surgery, and the Giants beat the Chicago White Sox 6-2 on Tuesday.

Last time manager Ozzie Guillen checked, Gordon Beckham was still wearing a White Sox uniform, Paul Konerko was still his team captain and first baseman, and Guillen was still set on his DH-by-committee plan this season.

No matter how much the rumor mill wants to churn up rumors about a trade with San Diego that would send Adrian Gonzalez to the Sox for a package headlined by Beckham, Guillen wasn't seeing it.

"Right now, the expectation about this guy and that guy, I like the team we have," Guillen reiterated. "We have a general manager (in Ken Williams) who keeps things quiet, thank God. And when he makes deals, it's for a reason. But we plan to have Gordon for a long time. I don't see why people are still talking about it."

Not just fans, either.

Carlos Quentin reminded everybody back in Chicago just how dangerous he can be when he's pain-free. Quentin homered on his first two at-bats and drove in five runs Saturday, leading a White Sox split squad to a 15-3 victory over the Cubs in the first of five spring exhibitions between the intracity rivals.

Vicente Padilla threw two hitless innings and Reed Johnson drove in a pair of runs, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to an 8-3 win over the Chicago White Sox on Friday. The Dodgers played most of their projected starters in their spring training opener at Camelback Ranch. Regular left fielder Manny Ramirez was the designated hitter and had a pair of singles in three at-bats.
