Frank Thomas kept quiet about the White Sox this time.

With his former team in town to play Oakland, the Athletics’ new slugger declined to offer any more opinions Monday about his acrimonious split with Chicago this offseason.

“I’ve got nothing to say about the White Sox. Frank has left the building,” Thomas said in Phoenix before Oakland’s 9-8 victory over the World Series champs.

He did say his left foot was coming along fine and he hoped to be ready by April 1, when the A’s entertain San Francisco in an exhibition game. But he was not in the lineup against his ex-teammates.

At Port St. Lucie, Fla., the New York Mets’ spring training game against the Washington Nationals was called in the top of the seventh Monday night because the stadium lights partially cut off.

At Surprise, Ariz., Kevin Millwood faced opposing hitters for the first time, allowing one run in four innings for the Texas Rangers.
