Smoke signals

• Before Carlos Santana even stepped to the plate on Monday at Target Field, he added a hit to his season total. An appeal by the Indians to Major League Baseball led to the overturning of a fielding error handed out to White Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez in the fifth inning of a game at Progressive Field on July 30. That extra hit bumped Santana's average to .266.

• Josh Tomlin's latest rehab outing yielded more positive results, as the veteran recovering from Tommy John surgery tossed 2 1/3 scoreless innings, allowing a hit while striking out three for Class A Lake County. According to Francona, Tomlin will continue his rehab working on regular rest.
