The Evolution Championship Series (Evo) is the mountaintop of fighting game tournaments. Brandon Scherff Jersey . As the biggest event on the Capcom Pro Tour, Evo represents the ultimate cherry on top for a players career if they emerge victorious. This year is the 20th anniversary of the tournament series and itll be the biggest turnout yet.With 5065 players registered for Street Fighter V, Evo is slated to be the largest fighting game tournament in history. The popularity of Street Fighter V at Evo has reached the levels of the World Series of Poker in participants. There will be approximately 53 countries represented for the marquee competition, with the United States boasting 4335 players, Canada following behind with 220 players, Japan with 160 players, Mexico with 64 players, and more.The final day of the tournament will be presented at the Mandalay Bay Events Center, a subtle nod to Evos roots when it was still called Battle by the Bay.JapanThe Land of the Rising Sun is a hotbed for Street Fighter talent and this year is no exception. If there were ever a region filled with superlatives like best player to use X character, it would be Japan. Players like Goichi Go1 Kishida, arguably the best Chun-Li and Necalli, YouDeal Majestic Athletics Tatsuya Haitani Haitani could make it very far in the brackets alongside the trinity of greatness: Twitch and Red Bulls Daigo The Beast Umehara, Hajime Tokido Taniguchi, and Team Razers Keita Fuudo Ai.Tokido is the worlds number two ranked player and the greatest threat to win Evo from his region. Hes the most consistent placer in the Capcom Pro Tour with five Top 3 placings at premier tournaments, including a victory at Community Effort Orlando. While his Ryu has plenty of game tape behind it for others to scrutinize, that wont slow down his momentum.Fuudo is the best Rainbow Mika in the world. His defensive and smothering style is perfect for large tournaments because he forces his opponent in a corner where they have no choice but to make mistakes. Hell come into Evo with little fanfare, but if his recent fourth place finish at G-League is any indication, hes ready for the big stage.Daigo Umehara is the peoples champion. It wasnt too long ago that he was considered a virtual lock for a Top 8 placement, but this is a different time and game. That said, hes still the face of Street Fighter V and the mans skills are second to none.North AmericaThe region with the majority of the tournaments participants may have a few contenders lying in wait. In the lead is Evil Geniuses Justin Wong. The marvelous one is the current leader in Capcom Pro Tour points (716) and may just boast the best Karin in the world. Hes the best bet to defend North American soil, but may still be considered a long shot to take it all down. This isnt a jab against Wong, whose pedigree is legendary, but an indication of just how difficult Evo will be. His running mates -- Kenneth KBrad Bradley, Eduardo PR Rog Perez, and Ricki Ortiz -- round up some of the best hopes for the country.After the boys in blue, theres honorable mentions for Panda Globals Ryan FilipinoChamp Ramirez, Team Liquids Du NuckleDu Dang (who has a good record against international talent), Team Naventics Peter Flash Susini, and Echo Fox Julio Fuentes. All are definite threats to snag a Top 8 spot.EuropeIn Street Fighter IV, the only player outside of Asia to take a championship was from Europe. Red Bulls Olivier Luffy Hay may not be the favorite from his region to win this year, but his Evo victory in 2014 proved that Europe may just be the dark horse in the race. Even without mentioning Luffy, Europe still boasts plenty of stars in BX3s Arman Phenom Hanjani, Benjamin ProblemX Simon, and Meltdowns Nathan Mister Crimson Massol.The latter three players already experienced Capcom Pro Tour success earlier in the year, with the big exclamation mark belonging to Phenom.Everyone elseThe favorite of the entire tournament still belongs to Team Razers Lee Infiltration Seon-woo from South Korea. Hes the worlds number one player with a play style that only one man could match and disassemble: Tokido. The Capcom Pro Tour is Infiltrations playground and Evo may very well be the next domino to drop.There are two other players remaining that deserve a nod: Qanba Douyus Zhuojun Xiao Hai Zeng and Team Razers Kun Xian Ho. Both represent the best shot for their respective regions, China and Singapore. For Xian, his mastery of unusual characters may benefit him the most in a large tournament setting because of the unfamiliarity and knowledge others might have in the matchup. For a talented player like Xiao Hai, the question was never if he could win a tournament, but when? Art Monk Jersey . Only three players drafted by NHL clubs were included on the Czech selection camp roster on Wednesday. Those players were Dallas Stars 2012 first-rounder Radek Faksa, Winnipeg Jets 2013 fourth-rounder Jan Kostalek and Phoenix Coyotes 2012 seventh-rounder Marek Langhamer. Tress Way Jersey .

The 39-year-old switch hitter, along with relievers Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman, could be moved by general manager Brian Cashman if the fourth-place Yankees continue to hover around .500.We need to start winning ballgames in order for us, for the organization to keep the whole team together, Beltran said, and hopefully, thats what happens.For his part, Cashman appears to be mulling his options.Obviously with the trade deadline approaching, organizations have to decide are they adding or are they subtracting, he said. Youll see over the next coming weeks, teams will obviously declare themselves by their actions.Beltran and relievers Andrew Miller and Dellin Betances were picked for the AL roster before the win, and White Sox ace Chris Sale joined the trio.Im fortunate, man, Beltran said. Every single one is special, and this one will be special also.Chicago (43-41) had won three in a row and six of eight, but it never recovered after Carlos Rodon (2-7) labored through five innings. The left-hander matched season highs by allowing six runs and 12 hits while dropping to 0-3 with a 4.93 ERA in his last six starts.Rodon flipped his glove into the stands as he walked off the field after his outing.Yeah. Give it to a fan is better thaan throwing it away, he said. Jonathan Allen Jersey. .Beltran singled in the first but was stranded at third when Headley struck out with the bases loaded. Beltran hit an RBI single in New Yorks two-run second, then doubled and scored in the fourth for a 5-0 lead.Tanaka allowed six hits and walked one in 7 2/3 innings. Chicago put runners on second and third with one out in the second, but Tanaka struck out Avisail Garcia and retired J.B. Shuck on a fly ball.Once they got the lead he just seemed to get into a nice little groove of throwing a few more fastballs but slowing it down, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. He had some that were in the 70s. Hes just able to keep you off balance.HELLO A-RODYankees slugger Alex Rodriguez served as the designated hitter in his first start since Thursday -- before a weekend series at San Diego. He went 1 for 6 with a first-inning double.TRAINERS ROOMYankees: OF Jacoby Ellsbury was held out of the starting lineup.

Get a MRI in the morning and see the severity, he said. ... 1B Justin Morneau, coming back from left elbow surgery, went 0 for 2 and was hit by a pitch in his second rehab appearance with Triple-A Charlotte.
