PRETORIA, South Africa -- A South African police officer swung a cricket bat at Oscar Pistorius bullet-marked bathroom door during his murder trial on Wednesday, using two key pieces of evidence to re-enact the night he killed his girlfriend. Josh Harrison Jersey . Police Col. J.G. Vermeulen faced tough questioning from Pistorius defence lawyer, who tried to discredit the police investigation of the shooting and alleged that Vermeulen, a forensic expert, made glaring missteps in his analysis. Pistorius lawyers secured bail for him last year after contending that police contaminated or tampered with evidence from the home where he fatally shot Reeva Steenkamp, firing through the bathroom door as she cowered inside during the pre-dawn hours of Valentines Day 2013. Pistorius says the killing was a mistake; the prosecution alleges the 27-year-old double-amputee intentionally shot Steenkamp after an argument. The actual door that Pistorius shot through a year ago was erected in the Pretoria courtroom Wednesday, and the bat he used that night was used in the demonstrations. There was even a toilet cubicle behind the door, recreated to the exact specifications of the small area of Pistorius bathroom where the 29-year-old model was fatally shot, Vermeulen said. Below the doors handle, four bullet holes were clearly visible. Steenkamp was hit three times in the hip, arm and head. One shot missed, the court has heard. Pistorius says he used the bat to break down the door after realizing he shot Steenkamp, mistaking her for an intruder. Kneeling, Vermeulen swung the bat to show how he believed Pistorius struck the door from a low angle, indicating he was on his stumps at the time. Defence lawyer Barry Roux insisted Pistorius was wearing his prosthetic legs, saying the bat marks on the door were low because he swung with a bent back. The back-and-forth over whether Pistorius, the first amputee to run at the Olympics, was on his prosthetic limbs or not is important because it could match parts of his story that he accidentally shot Steenkamp, or expose inconsistencies in it. Last year, prosecutors maintained Pistorius was on his prostheses when he fired through the door, arguing the runner planned the killing while putting on his artificial limbs. But in a reversal, prosecutor Gerrie Nel said in court Wednesday that he did not dispute the defences contention that the runner was on his stumps when he opened fire. The athlete has said he fearfully approached the bathroom on his stumps and shot Steenkamp by mistake, thinking she was an intruder hiding behind the door. According to his account, he then put on his prostheses and tried to kick down the locked door, striking it with a cricket bat in a panicked attempt to reach his girlfriend. Roux turned up the pressure on Vermeulen, saying the police investigator failed to properly look at another mark on the door the defence says was made by Pistorius prosthetic leg as he tried to kick it down, leaving a piece of sock fabric lodged in the wood. The defence lawyer also indicated that police investigators might have left a shoe print on the door, the door itself might have been kept in a policemans office and not in proper evidence storage, and missing fragments from the door werent examined. Vermeulen said the door was kept in a "body bag." In an evidence photo, a faint footmark on one of the door panels could be seen. "It looks like a police shoe print," Vermeulen said. "How did that come about?" Roux asked. Vermeulen said he did not know. Earlier, Vermeulen also said a metal panel on the wall of the main bathroom in Pistorius home had been damaged by being hit with a "hard" object. The panel was new evidence. A photo of the damaged plate was shown. Pistorius faces a possible life sentence if convicted of murder for killing Steenkamp. The judge, who watched the demonstrations Wednesday, will ultimately decide on the verdict. There is no trial by jury in South Africa. Pistorius was born without fibula bones because of a congenital defect, and his legs were amputated when he was 11 months old. He ran on carbon-fiber blades and is a multiple Paralympic medallist . He also competed at the London Olympics but didnt win a medal.

CHICAGO -- For one night, the Chicago White Sox had all facets of their game working together. Adam Dunn and Conor Gillaspie homered while Gordon Beckham had three hits, John Danks pitched into the eighth inning and the White Sox snapped the Baltimore Orioles four-game winning streak with a 5-2 victory Tuesday night. Gillaspies homer snapped a 1-1 tie in the sixth, and Dunns 22nd, a two-run homer in the seventh, gave Chicago a 5-1 lead. Addison Reed pitched a scoreless ninth for his 22nd save in 26 attempts. Chicago ended a five-game losing streak and avoided falling a season-high 16 games below .500. And the White Sox managed to win by playing the kind of clean game they havent for most of the season. The White Sox made no errors, their bullpen was solid, the pitching was strong, and the offence produced. It all added up to a needed victory against one of baseballs hottest teams. "Its nice," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "Weve had some tough nights here the last few." The White Sox have lost 23 of their past 32 and are in last place in the American League Central. Danks (2-5), who earned his first win since beating Oakland on June 8, allowing two runs and six hits and seven innings with four strikeouts, knows what kind of hole the White Sox have dug for themselves. "We know how good we are. We know weve got a hell of a road ahead of us. We did it to ourselves," Danks said. "But at the same time, we know how capable we are of going on a run. We just hope that were able to do it starting now. We know were running out of time." Baltimore took a 1-0 lead with one out in the third when Brian Roberts hit his first home run of the season after coming off the disabled list Sunday. Roberts homer, on Danks first pitch of the at-bat, was his first since April 13, 2011, against the Yankees. That was all the production Baltimore got off the White Sox until a run in the eighth. "(Danks) didnt present many opportunities. He had a good tempo and we knew what he was going to try to do and he did it," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. "Thats a tribute to him and the good stuff he took out there tonight. He had a good change-up." Chicagos offence gave Danks more than he needed. Chicago tied the game in the bottom of the fourth on Beckhams one-out single to left. The White Sox took a 2-1 lead on Gillaspies onee-out homer in the sixth. Francisco Cervelli Jersey. On a 1-0 pitch, Gillaspie hit his sixth homer of the season, a line drive that landed in the right-field corner. Chicago scored three times in the seventh, capped by Dunns 427-foot, two-run homer. The homer was Dunns 428th of his career, passing Mike Piazza for 45th all time, and gave Chicago a 5-1 lead on the second of two homers off Jason Hammel (7-5), the 17th and 18th hes allowed this year. "I dont really know how to answer that. Its just balls that are up in the zone that get hit out this year that werent last year," said Hammel, who pitched seven innings and gave up five runs and nine hits. "Its kind of just the way Im going right now. The mistakes are being amplified." Tuesdays game capped a busy day for the Orioles, who acquired starting pitcher Scott Feldman and catcher Steve Clevenger from the Cubs for starter Jake Arrieta, reliever Pedro Strop, and two international signing bonus slots. Feldman, who signed a one-year deal with the Cubs last off-season and is 7-6 with a 3.46 ERA, is expected to start Wednesday for the Orioles. Beckham hopes Tuesday is the start of a run for the White Sox, one they need to get back into the race. "Show up tomorrow and try to win tomorrow and see what happens," Beckham said. "Ten game winning streaks have happened before, so well continue to show up and do the work and hopefully get on a roll here." NOTES: Paul Konerko was the White Soxs designated hitter and went 0 for 4 after missing six games with lower back tightness. ... The White Sox signed 16-year-old Dominican outfielder Micker Adolfo Zapata to a contract that included a $1.6 million signing bonus, the largest in team history for an international signing. ... The White Sox appointed former slugger Jim Thome to a position as special assistant to general manager Rick Hahn. Thome, who last played for Baltimore in 2012, will work with players at all levels throughout the organization. ... With Feldman pitching Wednesday against Chicagos Hector Santiago (3-5, 3.59), the Orioles will start Zach Britton on Thursday and push Miguel Gonzalez to Friday in New York against the Yankees. ... Baltimores Wei-Yin Chen will make a rehab start Thursday for Double-A Bowie and the team hopes he will get to 90 pitches. Chen has been on the disabled list since May 14 with a strained right oblique.
