SANTA CLARA, Calif. - 49ers tight end Vance McDonald expects to play Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.The playing status of Vernon Davis is less certain.McDonald, recovering from a knee injury, went through a personalized workout Friday and then ran routes, and afterward said he was ready to go.Im confident I can go Sunday, McDonald said. Running routes felt great.McDonald hurt his knee during the 49ers loss to the Chicago Bears two weeks ago and has been limited to personal training as established by the team trainers.Its something I had to work through, McDonald said. Weve been using caution; its all about Sunday.The second-year tight end said he did well at Fridays workout, which tested his knee from every angle.Im pretty happy, McDonald said. I was impatient and wanted to do more work after I was finished for the day, but the trainers kept me on a schedule and theyve done a great job of getting me back in a timely fashion.McDonald, who has one catch for 9 yards on the season, would give the 49ers more options. They relied on a five-receiver set in last weeks loss to the Arizona Cardinals because of a lack of depth at tight end.Thats what I like about this team: we can line up two tight ends or go with a five-receiver set and still move the football, McDonald said. I thought they did a great job offensively.Davis refused to commit to playing, perhaps shying away after making a definitive statement last week and not playing.It will be more of a game-time decision, Davis said. Well keep working and hopefully I can be ready. I feel a lot better than last week.Davis is sore in the deltoid ligament region of his ankle, which is the area where the foot and leg meet. He said he feels it around the front of his ankle and will test it Sunday about an hour before game time.Its tough when the guys are all out there battling, Davis said. You want to be out there with them. But you cant get too overwhelmed. Ill just take it one day at a time.49ers coach Jim Harbaugh also expressed caution and optimism about Davis status, while extolling his talents in all phases of the offence.Hes one of the rare tight ends thats really good in the run game and really good in the pass game, Harbaugh said. Hes at the highest level in both.Davis also realizes his value as a run blocker.Definitely, when you can run or pass everyone gets a chance to get involved, especially Frank Gore, Davis said. We cant do too much without him. Weve got to get him going as well as Michael Crabtree and the other receivers.NOTES: Harbaugh said the reason a field goal attempt was blocked against the Cardinals, who only had nine men on the field at the time, was that half the team never got the signal that a fake was taken off. We didnt communicate the fake was off, he said. Half the line knew it was off and half the line was blocking like it was a fake. ... LB Patrick Willis said he never prepares anything ahead of delivering his pre-game speech each week. Its just something I feel during warmups as I look at the team, he said. I start to feel it and I go with whatever comes up. ... S Antonie Bethea (ankle) is listed as questionable and did not practice Friday, though its likely hell be ready to make his 100th consecutive start against the Eagles. ... C Marcus Martin (knee) is out, while CB Tramaine Brock (toe sprain) is listed as questionable, but is doubtful. T Anthony Davis (hamstring) is questionable, while Michael Crabtree (quad), Gore (back), Willis (wrist) and Justin Smith (non-injury related) are all probable.___Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Spurs Jerseys China . -- Jimmie Johnson has a sixth NASCAR championship in hand and two legends within reach.

One big swing by Adam Dunn changed that and the White Sox cruised to a 7-2 win over the Houston Astros. Dunn hit a three-run home run and Conor Gillaspie added two RBIs to lead the White Sox. The White Sox trailed by two and had managed just one hit off of Collin McHugh (2-2) through the five innings before Dunn launched his soaring homer into the second deck in right field with one out in the sixth to put Chicago on top. "That guy it just seemed like he was cruising," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "He was around the zone, a good curveball and thats what really kept everybody off-balance. You just stick with it. Dunns homer ... but then after that we put some stuff together to put it away." White Sox starter Jose Quintana (2-3) allowed two runs on seven hits in five innings for his first win since April 8. Hes pitched well between wins, but Chicago has had trouble scoring in his starts. "Hes done a lot for us to keep us in games and he hasnt won any games," Ventura said. "Hes notorious for coming out with a no-decision, so it was nice for us to get some runs after that and get him a win, because hes done a lot of work for us that doesnt go in the win column all the time for him." Dunn was happy he could help Quintana get a win after he had three no-decisions and three losses since his last victory. Quintana has been plagued by no-decisions in his career and set an American League record last season with 17. "It seems like every single game that he pitches we cant offensively get it going," Dunn said. "Then when we do, its when hes out of the game. He obviously wasnt as sharp as he has been lately or even since hes been up. But getting him that win was big." Tyler Flowers had an RBI in the sixth and Gillaspie drove in two runs with a double in Chicagos three-run eighth inning. Rookie George Springer and Jason Castro each haad an RBI for the Astros.dddddddddddd Chris Carter added a double and a single to extend his hitting streak to a season-high six games. He has improved in May after hitting just .153 in April. McHugh allowed four runs on three hits, striking out seven in 5 1-3 innings for his second straight loss after starting the season 2-0. "Coming in, from the get-go, I knew my stuff was good, but my command was spotty at best," McHugh said. "And it came back to bite me in that inning." Dunn, who was 0 for 11 before his home run, added a double in the ninth inning. "Hes got power with anybody in the league," Ventura said. "If he gets it its going to go. Its good. Hes walking and hitting balls hard so its a good night for him." Jonathan Villar and Jose Altuve hit consecutive singles to start Houstons fifth inning and Villar advanced to third on an error by Dayan Viciedo on Altuves hit. Villar scored on a groundout by Springer to put the Astros up 1-0. Castros two-out single made it 2-0. Matt Dominguez singled to put runners at first and second, but Quintana retired Jesus Guzman on a liner to centre to limit the damage. Alejandro De Aza singled to start the third inning for Chicagos first hit and Moises Sierra walked with one out. McHugh then retired nine of the next 10 batters, with the only baserunner coming on a walk by Flowers with two outs in the fifth. Gillaspie walked with one out in the sixth before McHugh plunked Jose Abreu. Dunns sixth homer of the season and the 446th of his career came next to give Chicago the lead. After the homer by Dunn, Viciedo doubled to chase McHugh. He was replaced by Josh Zeid, who intentionally walked De Aza with two outs before the RBI single by Flowers. NOTES: The series continues Saturday when Houstons Jarred Cosart opposes Hector Noesi. ... Ventura planned to give Abreu a day off to rest his sore left ankle. But Abreu didnt want to sit out so Ventura played him at designated hitter Friday night.
