Peavy looks sharp in first start for White Sox

TEMPE, Ariz. — Jake Peavy’s first spring training outing looked more like a regular-season start.

He was that sharp, and showed no signs of fatigue from jamming at his late-night “Woodjock” charity concert Thursday that drew some 1,200 people.

The Chicago White Sox also looked impressive at the plate in a 10-7 victory against the Los Angeles Angels on Friday, getting two-run homers from Gordon Beckham and Alex Rios in a split-squad game.

Peavy finally got to take the mound in the desert. His first scheduled start Sunday was rained out, though he still made the most of the day by throwing a bullpen session in the cage against live hitters.
