LOS ANGELES -- Chicago Cubs second baseman Ben Zobrist laughed off sign-stealing accusations by Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Yasmani Grandal, while Dodgers manager?Dave Roberts?simply called it part of the game. Cheap Custom Raiders Jerseys .I think its hilarious, Zobrist said Monday afternoon. No, I was not stealing signs. But I appreciate him thinking my baseball IQ is that high. ... I dont know what he was looking at or what he thought he saw. But really, from second base at Wrigley, its very tough to even see the signs. Its so dark. All the lights are behind the hitter. ... But I think all catchers are probably a little paranoid about that.Grandal agreed, saying he is indeed paranoid about baserunners stealing signs. He thought Zobrist was relaying them from second base in Game 1 on Saturday while Addison Russell was at the plate. So the Dodgers switched the signs.All the sudden, Russell is not taking good swings at sliders, looking like hes looking for a fastball and in a certain location, Grandal told the LA Times over the weekend. Did we know Zobrist had the signs and was doing something for it? Yeah, we did. Thats why we do it.Roberts didnt seem fazed by the notion that an opponent would attempt to steal signs.I think when you watch baseball games, every teams going to try to get any advantage they can, so thats kind of the gamesmanship part of the game, Roberts said.Thats why catchers or guys on second base give multiple signs and change sequences. So if they are (stealing signs), it wouldnt be a surprise, and theres many clubs that weve played against that do the same thing. Thats part of the game.Zobrist continued to deny the charge even while admitting hes attempted to steal signs in the past -- just not the very recent past.Ive tried before, but its never worked out, Zobrist said.Im, like, trying to read them from back there. But its just never worked out. ... And thats the thing: You dont want to relay it to the hitter if youre not positive. Half the time Im not even looking because youre not ready. Im looking at the sign from the third-base coach. Im trying to pick up to where Im trying to see the ball off the bat to where Im getting a good jump, stuff like that. So even when I do feel like I have time to look at it and see if I can catch up with the sequence, I dont. Half the time, I have trouble following our own pitchers sequence.The Cubs and Dodgers resume the NLCS on Tuesday night. The series is tied 1-1. Authentic Nick Nelson Jersey . -- Team after team passed on Andre Ellington in the draft. Wholesale Raiders Jerseys . According to a report from the Winnipeg Free Press, the Bombers will name Acting GM Kyle Walters to the post full time. http://www.cheapraidersjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=authentic-maurice-hurst-jersey .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. CLEVELAND -- Trevor Bauer proved his manager right Saturday night.Indians manager Terry Francona said before the game that Bauer would relish the idea of facing Marlins ace Jose Fernandez.Bauer then overcame a shaky first inning and pitched into the ninth in Clevelands 8-3 win over Miami.He looked like he had another gear after the first inning, Francona said. Boy, that was impressive.Bauer (10-6) shut down the Marlins after giving up three runs and three hits in the first. The right-hander didnt allow another hit until Ichiro Suzuki led off the ninth with a single. He gave up three runs and four hits in 8 1/3 innings.I thought I threw the ball really well in the first, Bauer said. The offense came back and put up two real quick, which is great for the team psyche, especially facing a guy thats really good.Francisco Lindor was 4 for 4, Jason Kipnis hit a two-run homer and Coco Crisp -- playing his first game since being acquired from Oakland -- had three hits, helping the AL Central leaders to their fifth straight win.Lindor doubled in the first and third, singled in the fourth and added an RBI single in the sixth.Kipnis hit his 22nd homer in the first off Fernandez (13-8), who gave up a career-high 12 hits and seven runs in 5 2/3 innings.Crisp began his career with the Indians and was traded following the 2005 season. He doubled in the first and singled in the fourth and sixth, but admitted he had a tough sleeping Friday night.You dont want to come in and strike out four or five times, he said. You want to do something special.Miami, which committed three errors, has lost seven of eight and fell to .500 for the first time since May 1.Christian Yelichs two-run double and a sacrifice fly by Derek Dietrich gave Miami the early lead, but Kipnis home run ccut the lead to 3-2. Authentic P. J. Hall Jersey. Roberto Perez tied the score in the second with an RBI double.Lindor doubled to lead off the third and scored on Carlos Santanas single, giving Cleveland the lead. Abraham Almontes sacrifice fly added another run.Fernandezs night ended in the sixth. Lindors RBI single gave Cleveland a 6-3 lead. A throwing error by Suzuki from right field on the hit led to another run.Fernandez, who also allowed a career-high six extra base hits, fell to 3-6 on the road.I was thinking about rolling the ball to the plate and seeing maybe who they were going to hit it to, he said. I got hit. I got hit really hard, but you learn from it.THE DAY AFTERThe Marlins were unhappy with the umpires during Fridays 6-2 loss. Manager Don Mattingly thought Kipnis struck out on a 3-2 pitch in the first inning, but it was ruled he checked his swing and Cleveland scored three runs. First base coach Perry Hill was ejected in the ninth and Mattingly was still upset following the game.Mattingly took a much calmer approach Saturday.Ive talked to the league and thats just pretty much where Id like to leave it, he said. No reason to keep going. Youre mad about it last night. It doesnt help it today. Its time to move forward.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: OF Marcell Ozuna (sore left wrist) missed his third straight game.Indians: C Yan Gomes (separated shoulder) was 2 for 3 as the DH for Double-A Akron on Friday.UP NEXTMarlins: RHP Tim Koehler will start the series finale Sunday. He allowed five runs and 10 hits, including two home runs, in a loss to the Mets on Aug. 30.Indians: RHP Danny Salazar, who hasnt won since July 19, will start Sunday.

Wholesale Kings Jerseys .The Giants announced on Monday that they have named Jose Alguacil as their first-base coach and Phil Nevin as their third-base coach for 2017. They will replace?Bill Hayes and Roberto Kelly, respectively.Alguacil managed the Sacramento River Cats, San Franciscos Triple-A affiliate, in 2016. The former infielder originally joined the organization as a coach in 2007 after playing six seasons in the Giants farm system from 1993 to 1998.Nevin was also a minor league manager before joining San Francisco. He guided the Arizona Diamondbacks Triple-A affiliate in Reno for the past three seasons and also spent three seasons as skipper of the Detroit Tigers Triple-A team in Toledo. Prior to his coaching career, Nevin played 12 seasons in the big leagues, earning an All-Star selection with the San Diego Padres in 2001.Current Giants skipper Bruce Bochy was Nevins manager in San Diego for six seasons. Dave Taylor Jersey . Numbers Game looks into the Canadiens securing the services of Thomas Vanek in a trade with the New York Islanders. The Canadiens Get: LW Thomas Vanek and a conditional fifth-round pick. Trevor Lewis Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. http://www.cheaplosangeleskingsjerseys.com/?tag=adidas-tyler-toffoli-jersey . "No difference at all," chirped U.S. roommate and linemate James van Riemsdyk. "Its still the same cranky Phil. RIO DE JANEIRO -- When it was all over, when they had the title they had coveted for years, Serbias jubilant players hung the countrys flag over one of the floating cages in the pool.The soaked flag said it all. Serbia had finally conquered the Olympic mens water polo tournament.Dusan Mandic scored four times, Branislav Mitrovic made 12 saves and Serbia dethroned Croatia with an 11-7 victory at the Rio Games on Saturday.This is maybe the best feeling in my life, center Slobodan Nikic said. I feel like Im flying.It was Serbias first Olympic gold medal in perhaps its favorite sport. The former Yugoslavia won three gold medals and Serbia and Montenegro lost in the 2004 final in Athens, but Serbia finished third in each of the previous two Olympics.After winning the world and European championships, Serbias star-studded roster had to deal with the burden of expectations when it arrived in Brazil. Then the pressure intensified when the team opened with a pair of draws and a surprising loss to the host country.But Serbia eventually found its way and closed with five consecutive victories by a combined score of 53-38. No settling for bronze this time around.We want this from the whole beginning of our careers, said Filip Filipovic, who scored two goals in the final and was voted tournament MVP.We trained so hard and so much. We suffer so much for this gold medal. As we saw, the road to this Olympic gold was very tough and very stressful for us.There were hugs on Serbias side of the pool as the final seconds ticked off, and the players jumped right in when it was over.Coach Dejan Savic avoided the traditional swim with his team, even sneaking off the deck for a moment before returning to the bench to watch the celebration. He wagged his finger and blew kisses to his players as they beckoned him to join them in the water.This is it for us. Lets say its game over, a grinning Filipovic said.Sandro Sukno scored three times for Croatia, which won gold in London. Javier Garcia Gadea had two goals. Dustin Brown Jersey. Serbia was the better team, Croatia coach Ivica Tucak said. We tried everything we had against them but they were just too physical and strong. The result shows that.Marko Bijac, who was voted the tournaments top goaltender and played a key role in Croatias run to the final, made five saves before he was replaced by Josip Pavic after Filipovic scored to make it 8-4 with 2:14 left in the third.They got easy fouls and they are such strong shooters, its very hard to stop, Bijac said.Italy beat Montenegro 12-10 for the bronze medal. Stefano Tempesti led the way with 10 saves, and Christian Presciutti scored four times.Its the second straight Olympic medal for Italy, which lost to Croatia in the London final. Italy also became the only country to medal in each water polo tournament in Brazil, with the women taking home silver on Friday.Its a great moment for (the) Italian water polo team, Tempesti said.The 37-year-old Tempesti had surgery on his right eye after he got hurt in the final match of the Italian championship in May. He finished with 51 saves in his fifth Olympics.Asked if the victory over Montenegro was his final game, he responded: I think so. Im quite sure, yeah.To be here with my eye, all the surgery, everything, day by day I had to learn how to come back in this Olympics, Tempesti said, and winning this medal, its the right reward, the best reward for what I have gone through in the last few months.Valentino Gallo added three goals for Italy, which lost to Serbia in the semifinals.Montenegro finished fourth for the third straight Olympics.We must make some changes, put some new players (on the team), but in this moment we dont have a lot of good young players, Montenegro coach Vladimir Gojkovic said.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Coyotes forward Brad Richardson was carted off the ice on a stretcher in the second period of Arizonas 3-2 loss to Vancouver on Thursday night. Rickey Henderson Jersey .Richardson, 31, was taken to the hospital for further evaluation, and the Coyotes said they expect to update his condition Friday.Its a big hole we have to fill in the middle, goalie Louis Domingue said. He plays crucial minutes in crucial areas of the game, but just the fact he goes down like that, it is a big bummer for our team.Richardson injured his right leg on an innocent-looking hit from Canucks defenseman Nikita Tryamkin with 8:37 left in the second period. Richardson crumpled to the ice and threw his gloves off in agony under the 6-foot-7, 265-pound Tryamkin.Medical staffs from both teams attended to Richardson by the boards in the Canucks zone for several minutes before loading him onto a stretcher. His right leg was elevated as fans at Rogers Arena gave the former Vancouver player a nice ovation before he was placed in a waiting ambulance.Richardson opened the scoring earlier in the period with his fifth goal of the season.The Associated Press contributed to this report. Walt Weiss Jersey . -- There were a lot of firsts for the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Kendall Graveman Jersey . The 43-year-old closer, in his 19th and final big league season, has said hed like to play the outfield. Yankees manager Joe Girardi says hes thinking about allowing Rivera to do it this weekend, when the Yankees finish their season with a three-game series at the Houston Astros. http://www.cheapathleticsjerseys.com/?tag=cheap-rollie-fingers-jersey .com) - The red-hot Los Angeles Kings will try to extend their winning streak to a season-high seven games when they visit the Edmonton Oilers for Sundays clash at Rexall Place. At least three English county professionals planning to spend the off-season playing cricket in Australia have been refused entry to the country because of visa issues and deported by the immigration authorities.Ben Twohig, a Worcestershire left-arm spinner who has been a professional for only four months, has been the latest victim of an Australian visa clampdown. He follows two county professionals named by The Times?-- Ben Cox, also of Worcestershire and Durham seamer Chris Rushworth?-- in being refused entry in separate incidents.Gloucestershire have confirmed, however, that their batsman Ian Cockbain has not been refused entry, contrary to reports, and he is playing under the appropriate visa in Melbourne.With scores of England-based cricketers arriving in Australia - both from county and club cricket - the situation could yet worsen. Worcestershire alone have more than half-a-dozen players holding such deals.The difficulties have caused the Professional Cricketers Association (PCA) to contact its counterpart in Australia to discover whether there have been any changes in visa practice of which it is not aware.David Leatherdale, the chief executive of the PCA, reiterated: Our advice is to make sure they have the right visa, as you would expect, and follow the advice of the Australian Borders Agency.Brighton CC , in Adelaide, have said they may appeal against the refused admission for Rushworth, county crickets player of the year in 2015, who was not only sent home less than 24 hours after arriving at Tullamarine Airport but who was also banned from entering Australia for three years. David Alleyne, a former professional at Middlesex and Nottinghamshire, has taken over an emergency captaincy and coaching role at 40.County professionals are advised by Australias immigration department to apply for the Temporary Work (Long Stay Activity visa) which allows multiple entry for aa period of two years, sometimes extended to a maximum of four years. Mark McGwire Jersey. A Sports Visa has now been withdrawn and is closed to new applicants.Such a visa can be a long and arduous process which does not fit neatly with deals often struck at the last minute. It also needs a business sponsorship, which is easily obtained by a gun player of obvious repute heading for the Big Bash (where visa regulations, in any case, can be more accommodating), but less so by a young professional trying to make his name at a low-resourced, amateur club where financial assistance is often unreliable. And it potentially sets a limit on the number of times a young cricketer can visit the country.Over the years, it has become common practice for many players to enter Australia on simple tourist visas, but attitudes to a long-standing practice are becoming more unforgiving as a general climate of stronger border checks takes hold.Immigration officers are alerted by tourists carrying substantial amounts of cricket equipment into the country which has also led to cannier cricketers sorting their gear on arrival in Australia.Australias more stringent checks are also apparent in other countries, the UK a prime example. Lengthy visa delays have caused chaos in amateur and professional sport over recent years. The situation is exacerbated by the immigration authorities seeming inability to understand the world of amateur or semi-professional cricket. Asian cricketers face a further inbuilt suspicion that they may not return home after the expiry of their visa.The long-established cultural exchange between cricketers, amateur and professional, has never looked rockier as countries enter an era of stiffer border controls and crickets governing bodies need to find solutions.

The Dallas Cowboys cleared a big obstacle thanks to Ezekiel Elliotts hurdle of a defensive back in one of the more impressive and perfectly executed decisions of Week 3. Jason Hammel Jersey .There was also a heads-up play by Packers returner Ty Montgomery and two calls that didnt work out so well: a special teams faux pas by the Colts that ultimately didnt cost them anything but a delayed celebration, and a tweet from the Houston Texans that opened them up to mocking from their fans for celebrating yards over points.Elliott, the Cowboys rookie running back, reverted to his high school state champion hurdling form when he saw Bears safety Chris Prosinski in his way in the fourth quarter of Dallas 31-17 win that snapped an eight-game home losing streak.Right away, Elliott figured hed leap his would-be tackler .Whenever you get a DB in the open field with that much space, hes definitely going to want to cut-tackle, Elliott said. I thought I might have to pull the hurdle out.Elliott picked up 14 yards on the play, helping him finish with 140 yards on 30 carries.Elliotts mother tweeted that her sons hurdling gene comes from mamma!And even though his father, Stacey, played football at Missouri, Elliott agreed that he got his athleticism from his mother, Dawn, who was a track and field star at that school.My mom is the best athlete in the family, Elliott said. Shes the reason I started to hurdle, actually. One year I quit my baseball team and so I had to run track. I was like I might as well try hurdles because my mom did it.

And five years after Cobb pulled off the heads-up play on a kickoff, Montgomery followed suit Sunday. He wheeled around the pylon and stepped out of bounds when he saw an excellent Lions kickoff heading for the end zone.As the ball backed back to the 3, Montgomery reached for the live ball while keeping both feet on the sideline, giving the Packers 37 extra yards.Ingenious, said Mike Pereira, football rules analyst for Fox. That makes it a kickoff out of bounds. Its a loose ball touching a player out of bounds.Cobb pulled off the trick on Dec. 23, 2012, when the Titans kickoff stopped just inside Green Bays 5-yard line.Montgomerys awareness proved crucial.

But their last gasp didnt go too far, and all it ended up doing was delaying Indys celebration.You dont touch it until they blow it dead, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said in what will surely become a mantra at practice this week.MARKETING MAHEM : The week started with a 27-0 Patriots win over Houston.

DURHAM, N. Authentic Auden Tate Jersey .C. -- No. 1 Duke didnt have three of its top freshmen -- and still had more than enough to rout Marist.Grayson Allen scored 16 points and Duke opened its season by routing the Red Foxes 94-49 on Friday night.Were a little bit undermanned now, and nobody feels sorry for us because they think we have an excessive number of men, coach Mike Krzyzewski said. But we just have to keep getting better.Freshman Frank Jackson had 18 points in his debut with the Blue Devils while Luke Kennard added 16.Duke shot 44 percent and had an easy time against the Red Foxes despite playing without three big men from a freshman class widely considered the nations best.Chase Jeter finished with 11 points in his first career start and Matt Jones also had 11 for Duke, which pushed its lead into double figures for good before Marist managed its first defensive stop.Khallid Hart had 13 points to lead Marist, which was just 3 of 25 from 3-point range.Injuries in the preseason have left the Blue Devils short in the paint: Forward Jayson Tatum missed both exhibition games after spraining his foot during a practice last month, center Marques Bolden earlier this week was declared out of both games this weekend with a leg injury, and forward Harry Giles is recovering after having his left knee scoped in October to clean up some loose bodies and scar tissue.They didnt need them.Duke held a 56-33 rebounding edge against an outmanned Marist team that didnt have anyone taller than 6-foot-9 on the roster.It speaks for the talent that we have and the confidence that we do have in the guys on the bench, Allen said. Whoever we put out there can be a good group.BIG PICTUREMarist: The Red Foxes met a similar fate as the previous 125 nonconference teams to visit Cameron Indoor Stadium. No shame in losing like this to Duke because the nations No. 1 team is hardly a fair measuring stick for a young team that went 7-23 last season.I didnt think we played at our best, Marist coach Mike Maker said, but Duke had a lot to do with that.Duke: Jeter looked significantly more confident during his first start than he did at virtually any point during an uneven freshman season. With so many big men out, any production they can get from Jeter is a significant plus.INJURY REPORTKrzyzewski says theres no time frame for the injured players return, adding that were just going to shut those guys down for a while instead of rushing them back and risking re-injury.Im going to be really adamant about taking a longer time than a shorter time, no matter what, he added. Krzyzewski says Tatum may have returned to practice too soon and that hurt him.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe Blue Devils cant climb any higher than No. 1, and at no point during this rout did they look like they deserve a lower ranking.THANKS, ALBANYMarist has politics in North Carolina and New York to thank -- at least partly -- for this beating. The original schedule had Duke opening against Grand Canyon before playing Albany on Saturday, but the Great Danes had to back out of that game because of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomos executive order banning publicly funded, non-essential travel to North Carolina in response to a North Carolina law that limits protections for LGBT people. Organizers with the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off Classic moved the Grand Canyon game back a day, swapped in Marist -- which, as a private school, was not subject to the travel ban -- and sent Albany to play at Penn State.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Gregor Blanco has learned to think like a run producer. Nolan Arenado Jersey . Normally a leadoff hitter, Blanco has been used in the middle of the order more often. When he comes up with runners on, he has the mindset to drive in runs rather than just trying to get on base. Blanco had a pinch hit, two-run triple in the seventh inning, leading the San Francisco Giants to a 4-2 victory over the San Diego Padres on Wednesday. "When they want me batting sixth or seventh, it means they want me to drive in runs," Blanco said. "So when I came up to hit I told myself I had better drive these people in." With a big part of its offence on the disabled list, the Giants have turned to players like Blanco, a career .383 hitter with runners in scoring position, to pick up the slack. "Were getting good games from a lot of guys," Giants catcher Buster Posey said. Brandon Belt and Marco Scutaro also drove in runs as the Giants won their second straight following a three-game slide. Scutaro and Hunter Pence each had two hits. "Gregor has played well all season," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "He comes through in the clutch, has speed and is a tremendous defender. Hes just getting better and better." Will Venable and Jesus Guzman each hit home runs for the Padres, who have lost two straight after a seven-game winning streak. "Guzzie is a guy who is seeing the ball well and hes got the strength to hit it out of the park," Padres manager Bud Black said. Madison Bumgarner (7-4) won his third straight start after allowing two runs and three hits over seven innings. He walked four and struck out eight. Padres starter Eric Stults gave up two runs and seven hits over 6 1-3 innings. He walked two and struck out three. "Stults pitched great," Black said. "It was a well-pitched game by both guys. They have a good pitching staff and we feel ours is rounding into form." Luke Gregerson (4-3) did not retire a batter, giving up two runs and four hits. He took over for Stults after Tony Abreu singled with one out in the seventh. Pinch-hitter Hector Sanchez also singled ahead of Blancos triple, which one-hopped the fence in right-centre field. "I wanted to be aggressive," Blanco said. "I was looking for location and wanted to put a good swing on it." Scutaro followed with an RBI single and Posey singled before Tyson Ross came on to strike out Pence and Joaquin Arias. He also struck out the side in the eighth. Jake Dunning pitched the eighth and Sergio Romo worked the ninth for his 18th save in 21 chances. The benches cleared briefly in the second inning when Guzman took a few steps toward the mound after a pitch from Bumgarner sailed behind his back. "I was mad because it was just too obvious to me," Guzman said. "Its OK. I will forget about that moment. I play for my team and I play to win. Well just play and see what happens." Posey said it was nothing more than missed location. "Were trying to get inside on a guy who has hurt us out before," he said. "Thats all there was to it." Venable hit his 10th home run of the season, a solo shot leading off the third to put the Padres ahead. The Giants tied it with a run in the fourth. Belts looping fly ball down the left field line fell just out of the reach of the charging Kyle Blanks, allowing Pence to score from third. Guzman led off the seventh with his third home run of the season and second in two games. Hes a .304 career hitter against left-handers and .429 (12 for 28) against Bumgarner. Guzman, who made his major league debut with the Giants against the Padres, has hit four home runs in San Francisco, second only to eight in San Diego. He has no more than one in any other ballpark. NOTES: The Padres put INF Everth Cabrera on the DL with a left hamstring injury and recalled OF Jaff Decker from Triple-A Tucson. ... San Diego OF Carlos Quentin was not in the starting lineup for the fifth straight game. ... Guzman hit home runs in consecutive games for the first time in his career. ... Stults has pitched into the seventh inning in each of his last seven starts after doing so three times in his first eight. ... RHP Jason Marquis (9-2, 3.63) goes for the Padres when they open a four-game series at home against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday. Marquis is working on an eight-game winning streak that dates to April 28. ... RHP Chad Gaudin (2-1, 2.83) makes his fourth start of the season for the Giants Thursday, when the Miami Marlins visit to open a four-game series. ... Giants INF Brandon Crawford will likely miss two games as a result of swelling in two fingers on his right hand. ... OF Angel Pagan is scheduled to start a rehab assignment with San Jose on Thursday. Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Pagan could return as soon as this weekend. ... San Francisco INF Pablo Sandoval will join San Jose on a rehab assignment on Saturday and could join the Giants in Los Angeles on Monday night. ... The Giants, with 41,866 in attendance, recorded their 200th consecutive sellout. Cheap Colorado Rockies Jerseys . Louis Blues absence from top spot in the TSN. Jake McGee Jersey . -- Bryant McKinnie came out of his stance and lowered his shoulder into a practice squad player, causing a crisp thud to reverberate in the Miami Dolphins practice bubble. http://www.cheaprockiesjerseys.com/?tag=cheap-charlie-blackmon-jersey . There was no hesitation from the 40th-ranked Pospisil, from Vernon, B.C., who admitted that he cut back on his training sessions over the last few days to conserve energy as the long ATP season finishes next week at the Paris Masters. ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Boston Red Sox were down to their last strike when Will Middlebrooks made the most of a mistake. Middlebrooks had a three-run double off closer Fernando Rodney with two outs in the ninth inning that lifted the Red Sox past the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 on Thursday night. "He hung me a changeup and normally he buries that pitch, and he left it up," Middlebrooks said. Middlebrooks lined a shot to left on a 1-2 pitch from Rodney (1-2) with the base loaded, giving the Red Sox the lead. Rodney, who blew just two saves last year, is 7 for 10 in save opportunities this year. "This game is difficult," Rodney said. "Sometimes when you think youve got it in your hands, its gone. Thats how Im feeling tonight. Sometimes you lose control for a little bit, and you can find your way back to finish that inning." After walking Dustin Pedroia and David Ortiz, Rodney struck out Mike Napoli before loading the bases with a walk to Daniel Nava. Stephen Drew struck out, but Middlebrooks then came up with his bases-clearing hit. "The approach by everybody in the ninth inning ... we took some close pitches," Boston manager John Farrell said. "We load the bases via the walk. Even though were going up against a guy thats got tremendous stuff, there was no give up, there was not letdown." Rodney finished with four walks, which is a career high. Junichi Tazawa (3-2) pitched two scoreless innings for the win. He retired James Loney on a grounder with two on and two outs in the ninth. The Red Sox had been 0-12 when trailing after eight innings. "Awesome ... get us some momentum," Middlebrooks said. Felix Doubront gave up two runs, three hits, six walks and had seven strikeouts over five-plus innings for the Red Sox, who are 6-9 in May. He threw 104 pitches, including 54 strikes. Doubront pitched once in relief since his last start May 3 as the Red Sox have worked on the left-handers delivery. His 1-0 pitch in the third to Luke Scott slipped out his hand and ended up in foul territory between home and first. "I felt a lot better," Doubront said. Tampa Bays Alex Cobb allowed one run and three hits over 6 1-3 innings. He struck out six and walked two. Cobb struck out 13 in 4 2-3 innings last Friday night against San Diego, becoming the first piitcher in major league history to fan that many batters and fail to make it through the fifth inning. Cheap MLB Jerseys. The Rays went up 3-1 in the sixth on RBI singles by Desmond Jennings and Scott. Before the game, Tampa Bay put AL Cy Young Award winner David Price on the 15-day disabled list with a left triceps strain and recalled left-hander Alex Torres from Triple-A Durham. The Rays are hopeful that Price, who departed in the third inning of Wednesday nights game against Boston, will only miss two or three starts. Doubront was pulled after walking Loney to start the sixth. Clayton Mortensen entered, got an out before issuing a pair of walks to load the bases. Desmond Jennings then singled to put Tampa Bay up 2-1. Andrew Miller replaced Mortensen and allowed Scotts run-scoring single that made it 3-1. Ryan Roberts gave the Rays a 1-0 advantage on his homer in the second. Cobb retired his first 10 batters, including four on strikeouts, before Shane Victorino doubled down the right field line with one out in the fourth. Victorino scored to tie it at 1 on Ortizs two-out single. Victorino left after the eighth with lower back tightness. "Well check him tomorrow," Farrell said. "Hes a little banged up right now." Ortiz has 69 RBIs at Tropicana Field, which ranks second behind Manny Ramirezs 72 for the most by a visiting player. NOTES: Boston closer Andrew Bailey (right biceps strain) had a 15-pitch simulated game. The right-hander will make a minor league rehab appearance Saturday for Triple-A Pawtucket and could be activated from the 15-day disabled list on Monday. ... Red Sox RHP Joel Hanrahan, who had been the closer, had right elbow ligament replacement surgery and had his right flexor tendon repaired by Dr. James Andrews in Pensacola, Fla. .... Rays manager Joe Maddon said a decision has yet to be made on who will make Prices next scheduled start Monday in Toronto. Among the options are right-handers Jake Odorizzi and Chris Archer, as well as Torres, who made his major league debut in 2011, when he appeared in four games -- all in relief. ... Farrell said the team has not discussed moving struggling RHP Daniel Bard from Double-A Portland to extended spring training. Bard walked five and threw just 8 of 30 pitches for strikes in one-plus inning for Portland Wednesday.

He hustles . hes going to give you 100 percent every time hes on the field.Reds manager Bryan Price said Holts appearance was more of a necessity than a stroke of genius. Scott Scheblers calf started tightening up after getting hit by a pitch and second baseman Brandon Phillips was dealing with a tight quad making Holt and Ivan De Jesus substitutions a no-brainer.It just played out well, Price said. It was certainly no genius; it was just some good fortune.Adam Duvalls two-run single in the third broke a career high 0-for-18 skid and gave the Reds a 2-1 lead.Joey Votto had two hits, an RBI and a walk and has hit safely in 18 of his last 19 games.Reds lefty Brandon Finnegan struck out five, but walked six in six innings. Michael Lorenzen (2-0) gave up a run in two innings of relief and Raisel Iglesias picked up his first major league save.Weve had a lot of beer showers at the end of a win with guys getting their first hit or their first save or their first win, Price said. And thats the fun part of youth.Yadier Molinas solo home run in the second inning broke a career-high 13-inning scoreless streak for Finnegan. It also extended Molinas streak for reaching base safely to 22 games.Matt Hollidays solo homer in the fifth tied the game 3-3.Had a couple opportunities to get big hits to so it was just one of those nights where they outlasted us and we gave up a little on the back side which is pretty atypiical for us, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. Mason Cole Stitched Jersey. Cardinals right-hander Mike Leake failed to record a clean frame in six innings, surrendering a season-high four walks. Still, the three runs allowed were a much better showing than his two previous starts against his former club when he gave up six and seven runs, respectively.DAZZLING DEBUTHighly touted prospect Alex Reyes made his Cardinals debut in the ninth. The right-handers fastball topped out at 101 mph twice in a perfect frame that included a strikeout of Duvall.It was electric, Price said. Theyve got another good one.RUN BILLY RUNHamilton stole three bases and he has nine steals in his past three games. He has more stolen bases (48) than the Reds have wins (46).My main job is getting on base, Hamilton said. I got picked off today and a bunch of guys would have shut it down after that. Thats something I feel comfortable in. Im going to come out next time and get you.PARKING ISSUESThe Cardinals closed their locker room for about 10 minutes to discuss temporary parking arrangements in preparation for the Paul McCartney concert Saturday at Busch Stadium.TRAINERS ROOMReds: RHP Alfredo Simon (right trapezius) and RHP A.J. Morris (strained right shoulder) will continue their rehab assignment Wednesday at Triple-A Louisville. Simon is scheduled to pitch two innings and Morris one.Cardinals: RHP Michael Wacha (strained right shoulder) was placed on the DL and Reyes was promoted from Triple-A Memphis.UP NEXTReds: RHP Anthony DeSclafani (6-0, 2.94 ERA) is coming off a no-decision against Pittsburgh in which he gave up two runs in six innings. Last season, he became the first Reds rookie since Ewell Blackwell in 1946 to face St. Louis in consecutive starts and win them both.Cardinals: LHP Jaime Garcia (8-8, 4.04) is coming off eight shutout innings in a 1-0 win over Atlanta. He drove in the lone run of that game with a single and allowed just three hits.
