"With the exception of some "general soreness," Carlos Quentin said he feels good.

That was evident Saturday from the two home runs he hit off Carlos Silva in vaulting the White Sox to a 15-3 victory over the Cubs before 12,712 fans at HoHoKam Park.

Quentin played in only 99 games last season because of plantar fasciitis in his left foot and admitted his recovery was slow until December when he was able to perform more explosive work.

"(The foot) is no sorer than it would be if I was healthy three years ago," Quentin said. "It's fatigue. Soreness as in maybe my feet just ache. That's just from being in cleats.

"It's not a thought in my head where I'm concerned about that specific location. I'll clarify that. So besides spring training, it's standard soreness. … It has been very good so far.""
