| Ospreys teenager Keelan Giles has been described as an X factor player after being called into Wales autumn Test squad.The 18-year-old uncapped wing replaces Hallam Amos, who suffered a shoulder injury during Wales 32-8 capitulation to Australia three days ago and now faces probable surgery.While Giles, who had been training alongside the squad as an additional player before Tuesdays development, appears unlikely to feature against Principality Stadium visitors Argentina next Saturday, a Test debut looks inevitable sooner, rather than later.Giles starred for Wales Under-20s last season and he has scored eight tries in five Ospreys appearances this season, prompting many pundits to make comparisons with Wales all-time record try scorer Shane Williams, given his blistering pace and dazzling footwork.We have got a lot of good players, a lot of good wingers, Wales skills coach Neil Jenkins said.Keelan has got to take his chance with both hands and show the coaches and the players involved what he is all about. He has already done it with the Ospreys, and I am sure he will do that in our environment.He has got a little bit of X-factor about him. He is a different player to some of the other guys weve got. I know a lot of people will bring similarities with Shane [Williams] and stuff.Keelan is not the biggest of players, but hes electric on his feet and he is brave. We will see how the next couple of weeks go, and you never know.Amos, who impressed when he went on as a second-half substitute last weekend, has been released back to his region Newport Gwent Dragons.Wales interim head coach Rob Howley is due to name his team for the Pumas visit on Thursday, and there will be changes following Australias demolition job.Gareth Davies is expected to replace injured scrum-half Rhys Webb, while skipper Sam Warburton, lock Alun Wyn Jones and centre Jonathan Davies should all be back in the mix, and Liam Williams will strengthen Howleys back-three options if he has regained full fitness.The Wallabies inflicted a heaviest home defeat on Wales for 10 years, and Jenkins knows from some of his experiences as an international player just how bad the feeling is.Its what you dream of, representing your country, performing well and winning, but when things dont go to plan, its not the best day and it does take quite a few days to get over it, he added.Sport gives you a chance to go again, a chance to redeem yourself and put the wrongs right. I think a lot of us would liked to have played [again] on Saturday night if we could have done.It is hugely disappointing. You dont want to let yourself, your country, your team-mates, your family, your friends or the fans down.You give your all for your country. There is a big build-up to matches and there is a lot of pressure. When it doesnt go to plan, its hugely disappointing.Wales have beaten Argentina in four of the countries last five meetings, but Jenkins knows their danger and has been impressed with how they have modified their game.After our performance on Saturday, they will certainly come here fancying their chances, he said.It is up to us to make sure that we play like we can play, and if we can do that, we are more than capable of doing a job on Saturday and winning the game.They [Argentina] play a high-risk, high reward game now.There are an incredible number of off-loads in their game, quick tap penalties, quick lineouts and the like. They play at a high tempo, and we are going to have to be on the money on Saturday.They have evolved and improved their game over the last three or four years. Cheap Celtics Jerseys .

The breaks went the other way in his third outing. Minnesota misplayed two fly balls by losing them in the sky and Albers scoreless streak to start his career was snapped at 17 1-3 innings as the Chicago White Sox beat the Twins 8-5 Saturday. Dayan Viciedo hit a three-run homer off the North Battleford, Sask., native and Alejandro De Aza added a two-run shot in the ninth after the Twins had climbed back within a run. "I was able to catch the breaks those first two nights, and tonight didnt quite catch as many," Albers said. "Things change, and then you make one bad pitch, and you pay for it. Its a fine line in this game, and sometimes, thats how things go." Chris Sale (9-11) won his third straight start for the White Sox, giving up three runs and nine hits in seven innings with eight strikeouts and Addison Reed earned his career-high 30th save in 35 chances. Albers (2-1) was dazzling in his first two starts, making use of a mid-80s fastball, changeup and slow curve to get ahead of hitters. But he struggled to get strike one against Chicago early Saturday and allowed five runs and eight hits in seven innings. Chicago snapped Albers scoreless streak -- a record for a Twins starter to begin a career -- with a run in the first after Alexei Ramirezs fly ball to centre field was lost in the sun. De Aza, who opened with a single, went to third on the play and scored on Paul Konerkos RBI groundout. "The sky played a little havoc with us today and cost us a couple of runs, and there you have it," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. Albers had two outs in the fourth before allowing four straight runners to reach base, concluding with Viciedos homer to left. But he retired nine of the last 10 batters he faced to reach the seventh inning for the third time in three starts. "The streak was greatt while it was going on," Albers said.dddddddddddd "It was awesome to have those two nights. Theyre pretty special, and who knows if that will ever happen again. You see today how quickly things can change, and its one of those things where youve got to get some breaks for it to happen like that." Adam Dunn had three hits for the White Sox after left fielder Josh Willingham lost another high pop-up in the eighth, giving Chicago a 6-3 lead. "Just didnt see it," Willingham said. "Some unfortunate stuff," Gardenhire said. "What are you going to do? You lose the ball. You cant see it, its hard to catch. Thats the way it is this time of night and both teams have to deal with it, and we end up losing." Ryan Doumit hit a two-run homer in the Twins eighth off Nate Jones. Minnesota homered for the 10th straight game, its longest streak since 11 consecutive in August 2007. Joe Mauer doubled and drove in two runs for the Twins, who lost for the fourth time in five games. Willingham, Brian Dozier and Pedro Florimon all finished with two hits and scored a run. Florimon had just one hit in his previous 26 at-bats. NOTES: Twins 1B Justin Morneau pinch-hit in the ninth, but didnt start for the first time since July 11 with Sale on the mound. ... Minnesota agreed to terms with INF Brad Boyer of the St. Paul Saints independent league team on Saturday. Boyer, 29, is hitting .337 with seven home runs and 50 RBIs in 78 games.

The Twins have had success with independent league signees, including Albers, LHP Caleb Thielbar also from the Saints and recently demoted Chris Colabello. ... Hector Santiago (3-7, 3.37 ERA) will try to win for the first time since June 21 as he takes the mound for the White Sox on Sunday. The lefty is 0-2 in his last nine starts. The Twins will counter with Samuel Deduno (7-6, 3.54 ERA).
