Thirteen runs is always good, from corse178's blog

Disciplinary chiefs have admitted Malakai Fekitoa should not have been on the field to score the winning try in New Zealands 21-9 victory over Ireland. Ua Speedform Phenom Black.All Blacks centre Fekitoa has been suspended for one week for his high tackle on Simon Zebo that only drew a yellow card in Saturdays feisty Dublin clash.Referee Jaco Peyper merely sin-binned Fekitoa in a controversial match that later drew 12 citing referrals, 11 pertaining to All Blacks players.Fekitoa scored two of New Zealands tries, but avoided a red card that disciplinary bosses have now conceded should have been issued.The disciplinary committee found that Fekitoas actions would have warranted a red card, albeit that he had acted recklessly rather than intentionally, read a statement from the autumn international disciplinary authorities.New Zealand flanker Sam Cane was also up before a disciplinary hearing on Tuesday, for the high tackle that left Robbie Henshaw unconscious but was only punished by a penalty on Saturday night.Team manager Mick Kearney admitted on Monday that Ireland were disappointed with the officiating fall-out.Governing body World Rugby issued a stark warning before the November Tests that any dangerous or head-high tackles would be punished harshly.Players were warned that red cards could be issued, but New Zealand managed to avoid such censure in their three-try win in Dublin at the weekend.Tuesdays admission that Fekitoa should have been sent off must act as a source of embarrassment for the games law makers, and raises further questions about the standard of officiating in Dublin.Fekitoa will now miss New Zealands final autumn Test, the clash with France in Paris on Saturday.When considering sanction, the disciplinary committee concluded that the offending merited a low-end entry point based on World Rugbys scale of seriousness, which carries a two-week playing suspension, continued the statement on Fekitoa.The disciplinary committee further found that there were no aggravating factors and that there were a number of mitigating factors; including Mr Fekitoas immediate acknowledgement of wrongdoing, his previous clean disciplinary record and his good conduct at the hearing.And as such his playing suspension should be reduced to one week.Fekitoa is therefore suspended from playing rugby for a total of one week, up to and including Sunday 27 November 2016. Under Armour Clearance Sale .

LOUIS -- Attorneys for the St. CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Three players made the All-Star team. A seldom-used player drove in three runs. All in all, a pretty good day for the Reds. Cesar Izturis drove in three runs, matching his season total, and Mat Latos doubled home two more on Saturday, rallying Cincinnati to a 13-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners. It was Cincinnatis second victory over Seattle in interleague play. The Mariners are 9-2 overall in the series. "It was one of those days," Izturis said. The day will be remembered more for what happened just before the game began. The Reds learned that first baseman Joey Votto had been voted by fans as an All-Star starter for the second straight year, the first time thats happened to a Cincinnati player since Barry Larkin in 1999-2000. Joining him in the starting infield is Brandon Phillips, the first time a Reds second baseman has been voted to start since Joe Morgan in the 1970s. They became only the fifth set of teammates to start an All-Star game at first and second base. "Its a real honour," Votto said. "This year it will be special because Im playing beside Brandon. "Everything is finite. There will be an end to my career. I want to enjoy as many of these experiences as I can." Phillips played in the All-Star games in 2010 and 2011 as a reserve. "I want to thank the fans for voting for me," Phillips said. "Its a dream come true. Its something that I can check off my goals." Closer Aroldis Chapman also was chosen for the second straight year. The Reds overcame another early deficit to get their second win over Seattle. Manager Dusty Baker decided to give Izturis his ninth start at shortstop so he could get some at-bats and stay sharp. Izturis singled home a run in the second and doubled home two more in the fifth off Jeremy Bonderman (1-3). Baker had told Izturis on Friday that hed be in the starting lineup for the second game of the series. "Dustys always good about letting you know," Izturis said. "And thats good, especially when you dont play every day. Its definitely all mental. Its not that easy, but we know what were here for." The Reds scored more runs than in any game since a 13-7 win over Milwaukee on Mayy 11. Ua Scorpio Chrome. . It was the second-most runs allowed by the Mariners, trailing a 16-9 loss to Houston on April 9. Latos (8-2) matched his season high with four walks in six innings, but also doubled his RBI total by driving in a pair of runs with a double. He allowed six hits and fanned 11 while throwing 111 pitches. Kyle Seager drove in three runs off Latos with a homer and a sacrifice fly. Bonderman was coming off his shortest start since 2007, going only 3 1-3 innings during a 7-6 loss to the White Sox on June 30. He lasted longer, but didnt fare much better. The right-hander went five innings, allowing seven hits, five walks and six runs. Five of them scored with two outs. For the second day in a row, the Mariners got a two-run homer in the first inning to jump-start the offence. Nick Franklin had a two-run shot off Mike Leake during a 4-2 win on Friday night. Endy Chavez singled and Seager followed with his 13th homer. Seattle has 21 homers in the first inning this season, most in the majors. Latos helped the Reds pull ahead to stay with two outs in the fourth. He doubled home two runs and scored from second on Shin-Soo Choos single for a 4-3 lead, sprinting around third to beat the throw from centre fielder Dustin Ackley. "That was a good time to get a hit," Latos said. "The offence picked me up. Thirteen runs is always good, especially when I put us in 2-0 hole." Izturis doubled home two more in the fifth, and Jay Bruce added a two-run double during a three-run sixth that put it away.
