CHICAGO -- John Danks wanted to pitch deeper into the game. Nevertheless, he was still happy with the results. Danks was solid in his season debut and Jeff Keppinger drove in the winning run on a single in the 11th inning and the Chicago White Sox beat the Miami Marlins 4-3 on Friday night. Danks allowed three runs and four hits in six innings in his first start since undergoing shoulder surgery in August to repair a capsule tear and remove debris in his rotator cuff and biceps. He struck out five, walked none and hit a batter in the opener of the interleague series. "It was a good first one," Danks said. "I did as much as I had hoped to do. Obviously, as the game went on, I wanted to go further, but I totally understand the move, totally agree with the move and Im glad we got the win." Danks went 3-4 with a 5.70 ERA in nine starts last season as the teams opening day starter. He last pitched May 19, 2012, against the Cubs. The left-hander made four minor-league rehab starts before debuting Friday. He threw 76 pitches, allowing a two-run home run to Derek Dietrich in the fourth. "The best part was his command and keeping everything in check and doing everything he needed to do," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "He was getting people to swing and miss. Its what you would expect of him coming back and being at full strength." Paul Konerko started the White Sox rally with a one-out single in the 11th. Pinch runner Tyler Greene moved to third when Dayan Viciedo singled off the glove of second baseman Dietrich. After Ryan Webb (1-2) intentionally walked Conor Gillaspie, Keppinger singled to left field. "It just feels like our offence is starting to do a little bit more and were still getting good pitching," Keppinger said. Nate Jones (1-4) pitched two-thirds of an inning for the win. Marlins starter Tom Koehler gave up three runs in six innings in his first career interleague start. He struck out three and walked one. Koehler remained in the game after a Keppinger line drive struck him on the back of his right shoulder in the third inning. Koehler said the ball struck him underneath his shoulder blade. "It actually hit me in a pretty decent spot," Koehler said. "As far as affecting the way I threw, it had no bearing on anything, which was nice. It will be a little sore tomorrow, but it shouldnt be anything to worry about." The Marlins tied it 3-3 in the seventh. Marcell Ozuna led off with a double, forcing Danks from the game. Ozuna advanced on a Justin Ruggiano single off Matt Lindstrom and scored on a Miguel Olivo sacrifice fly. After a Nick Green single loaded the bases, Lindstrom got a double play to end the inning. Konerko hit a go-ahead, two-out single off Koehler for a 3-2 White Sox lead in the sixth. Alex Rios scored after extending his career-high and AL-leading hitting streak to 18 games with a one-out single. Dietrich hit a two-run homer off Danks for a 2-0 Marlins lead in the fourth. Placido Polanco scored after leading off with a single for the Marlins first hit. "I felt great. I felt really good," Danks said. "I felt like I was able to make the ball move and do what I wanted to do for the most part. There were a few pitches I would like to have back. I felt like I made a good pitch to Polanco, and he got a knock and the homer. I should have thought more about that one." The White Sox scored two runs to tie it 2-2 in the fifth. Keppingers RBI groundout scored Viciedo, who reached on a force out and advanced on a Gillaspie double. Hector Gimenez hit a two-out single to tie it. The White Sox threatened in the 10th. Keppinger led off with a single before Chad Qualls hit Gimenez with a pitch. Both runners advanced on an Alejandro De Aza sacrifice bunt. After Qualls intentionally walked Alexei Ramirez, Rios hit into an inning-ending double play with a close call at first that brought out Ventura to talk to umpire Angel Hernandez. Replays showed Rios foot on the bag before the throw arrived. "You have to put it behind you," Ventura said. "Fortunately, you get somebody on, and Paulie gets on and Tank (Viciedo) got that hit (in the 11th). Stuff happens. You just have to roll with it." NOTES: The White Sox are hopeful LHP Chris Sale will make his scheduled start on Tuesday against the Cubs. He missed his start Wednesday against the Red Sox because of shoulder tendinitis. "In my mind, Im going for sure, but I dont know what (the team has)," Sale said. "Thats the target. Thats what were shooting for, but just like anything else, its out of my hands." Sale said he felt good going through his shoulder program and he plans to play long toss Saturday. ... White Sox 2B Gordon Beckham wont play in his rehab assignment at Triple-A Charlotte until at least Wednesday because he is experiencing soreness in his left hand, general manager Rick Hahn said. The hamate bone in Beckhams left hand was removed April 16, and he began a rehab assignment May 18. "Its nothing to be alarmed about," Hahn said. ...

Dr. Patricio Maldonado said a second, 2 1/2-hour autopsy performed after Benitez body was flown home from Qatar found that the athlete died due to problems "that cannot be detected even with very sophisticated exams." "Medical science is not 100 per cent effective," said Maldonado, "and we are left with painful incidents such as this." The 27-year-old player died Monday in Qatar, a day after playing his first game with the El Jaish club. He had been admitted to the hospital with severe stomach pains after the match. Benitez joined El Jaish last month after spending several years in Mexico, where he helped America win the Mexiican championship last season.dddddddddddd Maldonado reminded reporters that Benitez had passed through a number of clubs where medical checkups are mandatory, "but this problem was only detected post-mortem." The president of Ecuadors soccer federation, Luis Chiriboga, attributed the problem to a flawed coronary artery. Thousands of people filed past Benitez casket on Friday in the Ruminahi sports arena in the capital before a funeral service in which relatives and fans wept inconsolably for the one of the biggest stars of Ecuadorean soccer. Benitez began his career with Ecuadors El Nacional club and later played for Santos and America in Mexico. He was briefly with Birmingham City in England. He played for Ecuadors 2006 World Cup team and looked to be on his way to participation on the squad in next years World Cup in Brazil. ' ' '
