SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Torrey Smith entered the season as one of the few San Francisco receivers with any proven track record in the NFL.One quarter of the way through the season, the Niners have struggled to get their best deep threat the ball.Smith has just nine catches for 106 yards and one touchdown through four games with the NFLs least productive passing offense and the frustration was apparent when he threw his helmet on the sideline after one failed attempt last game.Im fine being patient, Im completely fine not getting the ball as long as were moving the ball and were scoring points, Smith said Tuesday. Ill never complain about that. Its tough when Im waiting and I know we have an opportunity to change a game like that and we miss. Its tough.Smith had a couple of outbursts during Sundays loss to Dallas when he was targeted just twice all game. The most notable came when he threw his helmet on the sideline after Blaine Gabbert badly underthrew a deep pass, turning a possible go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter into an interception.I feel like if we hit that, we win the game, Smith said. I was frustrated. I shouldnt probably show it as much but I want to win. Im passionate about winning. We work too hard not to win here and I know that we can. It was just a little frustration moment but it wont happen again.That was the first time all game that Gabbert even threw the ball in Smiths direction. The only other pass to Smith came on San Franciscos final drive when he caught a 3-yard pass on fourth-and-6 that ended the Niners hopes for a comeback.But the rest of the day most of the passes went toward slot receiver Jeremy Kerley and tight end Garrett Celek.Were not trying to force anybody the ball, offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins said. Torrey is going to get his looks. Thats going to happen. Were confident in that. Torrey is confident in that. What the defense tells us is kind of where the ball goes and hes going to get his fair share as the season goes on. Im confident in that.Smiths biggest strength as a receiver is his ability to get deep and that has not meshed well with Gabberts abilities. Gabbert has completed just one of 10 pass attempts at least 20 yards down field -- a 28-yard TD catch by Smith against Carolina -- and his 33.3 rating on those attempts is the second worst in the league, according to SportRadar.The Niners had their best success a year ago throwing to Smith, generating a 116.9 passer rating on those throws in 2015, according to Pro Football Focus. That has not been the case this year when that rating has dropped to 37.7Smith was targeted 16 times the first two games -- catching just five of those passes -- but has been rather invisible the past two games with just six targets and four catches for 38 yards.A lot of it just depends on how people play us and what theyre doing, coach Chip Kelly said. Weve gotten a lot of man coverage out there. Sometimes people are leaning safeties toward his side. So, were taking advantage of whats going on.Game notesDL DeForest Buckner (left foot) and CB Jimmie Ward (quadriceps) did not take part in practice. ...

The Celtics closed out their first preseason under Stevens on Wednesday night with a 101-97 victory over the Brooklyn Nets, who rested a lot of their lineup including former Celtics Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.CHICAGO -- Justin Masterson was able to rely on his defence in his major league-leading third shutout of the season. The Cleveland Indians turned four double plays for their first four-game sweep in Chicago since 1948, beating the Chicago White Sox 4-0 Sunday. Masterson (10-6) gave up six hits, struck out eight and walked one. He blanked the White Sox for the second time this year. "Weve had such great defence, (you) try and let them hit it," he said. "They were aggressive, took a real aggressive approach swinging early. ... We made a lot of double plays and they were pretty double plays." Masterson faced the minimum through six innings thanks to two double plays and a pickoff. "Once he got through the first inning, then he kicked it in gear and started getting the velocity back up and using all his pitches," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "He was terrific." After Masterson began the ninth with two strikeouts, he allowed a single to Alejandro De Aza and hit Alexei Ramirez with a pitch. Masterson struck out Alex Rios looking to end the game. "I felt like at the point where we were at, no matter how good I felt, Rios was probably my last hitter, so I better get him out," said Masterson, who threw 112 pitches. The win moved Cleveland into a virtual tie with Detroit atop the AL Central. "When we can win a game like that today, where we rest a couple guys, try to stay away from guys in the bullpen, thats a good team win," Francona said. Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis and first baseman Nick Swisher had the day off. The White Sox have lost 23 of 31 and fallen a season-high 15 games under .500. Yan Gomes got three hits as the Indians won for the 10th time in 13 games. Chris Sale (5-7) struck out 10 while allowing three runs in eight innings. He recorded double-digit strikeouts for the fourth time this season. Sale was perfect through the first three innings before Drew Stubbs led off the fourth with a bunt single. Sale went 0-5 with a 3.19 ERA in June -- the White Sox scored a total of nine runs during his six startss in the month.dddddddddddd Sale hasnt won since May 17 against the Los Angeles Angels. The Indians scored twice in the fourth. Ryan Raburn hit a two-out double that drove in Stubbs, and Carlos Santana added an RBI single. "When you face Sale, you got to figure youre not going to get a whole lot of runs," Francona said. "His stuff is so filthy. (Stubbs) laying down that bunt was so big, made him pitch out of the stretch, and Rayburn hits a double. We did a really good job getting what we got." The Indians added a run in the fifth. Michael Brantley led off with a single and later scored on Lonnie Chisenhalls groundout. Stubbs hit an RBI double in the ninth. The White Sox put two on in the seventh before Rios hit into a double play and Adam Dunn struck out. "If hes throwing what hes capable of like today, hes tough on lefties and righties," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "You would think where he delivers from it would be easier for lefties. But when you can move it around and have a slider like that, a slider and a sinker, it doesnt make it easy on either side." NOTES: The Indians placed OF Michael Bourn on the three-day paternity list and recalled LHP Nick Hagadone. Bourn, who went to Houston after Saturdays game to be with his wife, will be eligible to return to the roster Wednesday. Bourn is hitting .299 as the Indians primary leadoff hitter. Hagadone is 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA. ... White Sox GM Rick Hahn said he hopes the team gets on a roll. If not, changes could occur as the July 31 trade deadline approaches. Hahn said his staff has been receiving "a pretty healthy pace" of calls from other teams over the last few weeks. He indicated no player is untouchable for a possible deal ... 1B Paul Konerko remained out of the White Sox lineup with a sore back for the sixth straight game. He said he hopes to play on Tuesday. The team has Monday off. ... Ramirez will eventually get a day off, Ventura said. The shortstop is the only player in the majors to play every inning this year. He has committed an AL-leading 14 errors. ' ' '
