LOS ANGELES -- Twenty points, 20 assists, zero turnovers -- what caught Chris Pauls eye first?The turnovers, the Clippers point guard said. Thats the first thing I look at every game.Paul was historically efficient on Saturday night, helping Los Angeles beat the New Orleans Pelicans 133-105 with its highest offensive output of the season.It was the first 20-20 game of Pauls career, and hes the first player since at least 1977-78 -- when turnovers were first recorded for individuals -- to have 20 points, 20 assists and no turnovers, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.As a point guard, Im like the quarterback, so a turnover is like an interception, he said. And when you have as much fire power as we have, a turnover takes away that opportunity.This was the fifth time this season Paul did not commit a turnover, but he averaged 7.8 assists in the first four games.He didnt have any turnovers? Los Angeles DeAndre Jordan said. He is a legend, man.The Clippers shot a season-best 57.4 percent from the field and made a season-high 17 3-pointers on 36 attempts to snap a two-game skid.We were just running the same play over and over, to be honest, Paul said.Jamal Crawford scored 22 points and Jordan had 19 points and nine rebounds for Los Angeles, which won for only the third time in eight games after opening the season 14-2. Austin Rivers had 18 points and J.J. Redick had 16.Coach played a lot of guys tonight, and everyone who stepped on the court did something, said Mo Speights, who chipped in 17.Coming off a tough loss to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night, the Clippers got back to work in practice on Thursday and Friday.A lot of times you have a great practice and it doesnt translate right away, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. I thought yesterday was the start of how we played tonight.The Pelicans, playing without resting Anthony Davis, lost their fifth straight. New Orleans gave up its season-high in points and has lost three consecutive road games, falling to 2-9 away from home.I thought we played well the first half. I thought we competed, did a good job, Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said. And the turnover thing reared its ugly head. The problem with our turnovers is that we have too many live turnovers. Fourteen is not an exorbitant number, but when you give up 22 points, that putss you in a tough situation. Jrue Holiday Jersey. .Tim Frazier scored 20 points to lead New Orleans. Cheick Diallo, playing his first extended time for the Pelicans, added 19 points and Terrence Jones had 18.Basically, Coach told me yesterday, `I want to give you a chance, Diallo said. I got a chance today so I had to take it. I just played hard every possession he wanted me to play.The Clippers led 61-55 at halftime, and then broke the game open with an 18-6 run over the opening 4:29 of the third quarter. Rivers hit a pair of 3-pointers and capped the stretch with a lefty layup off the glass, giving the Clippers 79-61 lead.This was the Clippers eighth consecutive victory over the Pelicans at Staples Center, a streak dating to 2012.NO A-DThe Pelicans elected to rest Davis, the NBAs leading scorer with 31.4 points per game. He had averaged 44 minutes over his previous three games.I think he just needs to take the day off, Gentry said.Through Friday night, Davis had averaged a league-leading 38.1 minutes per game.RIVERS RUN THROUGHRivers took a hard elbow to the jaw from a driving Jones with 4:22 left in the third quarter. Rivers returned late in the quarter, tried to play in the fourth, but had to be helped from the court early in the final quarter. He was taken to the locker room to be evaluated by team physicians, according to the Clippers.3,000 AND COUNTINGSaturdays game marked announcer Ralph Lawlers 3,000th regular season Clippers television broadcast.

                                      Jens Snute Aasgaard took down Tobias Showtime Sieber 4-2 to take the StarCraft II World Championship Series (WCS) Copa Intercontinental title this weekend. Jakub Vrana Stanley Cup Jersey . The field was stacked with championship hopefuls, with four players among the top-8 in the StarCraft II World Championship Series Circuit (WCS) standings.The favorite coming into the match was Milleniums Showtime (second in the WCS standings), a veteran German Protoss player. Other familiar contenders included Alex Neeb Sunderhaft (third in the WCS standings), Snute (fifth in WCS standings), Shin Hydra Dong (sixth in WCS standings), and Marc uThermal Schlappi (11th in WCS standings). The bracket results were deceptively one-sided on the surface because of the blowouts in the quarterfinals. Each player advanced with a 3-0 score despite the thin margin between each victory; only four series went beyond the minimum amount of games, including the grand finals.The grand finals between Snute and Showtime was not lacking in star power, with Snute a consistent top player with three grand finals appearances this year. Showtime, however, was the favorite player to take it all. And while these players were also considered the best in Europe, the grand finals was a battle of adaptations. Showtime countered Snutes slower pace with greedier compositions and late-game technology. Snute shored up his bases and defenses to out-micro Showtimes ability to quickly change army types.There were plenty of player-specific strategies from both players. Showtime showcased an immortal all-in to counter Snutes nonexistent pressure game, adept pushes, aggression and even a carrier armada to control the skies. Snute countered with his unique base configurations and queen positionings to prevent Showtimes aggression, roach counter plays and surprise mutalisk rush. In the end, it was Snutes complete play that allowed him to dominate the competition and continue a magical year.The third place match was the Neeb show. Despite uThermals best efforts to come back and bridge the gap between the early game, it was too large a mountain to climb. Neeb wasnt necessarily the better mechanical player, but his macro in the early game provided enough of a cushion to overlook the stalemate in microplay. Because uThermals playstyle was mostly on the defensive side, the ending of every game was up to Neebs execution and ability to close out. What was a strong matchup on paper ended in a fizzle for the third place standing. Dmitry Orlov Stanley Cup Jersey .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. T. J.

                                      LYNCHBURG, Va. Samuel Morin Jersey . -- Ian McCaw, former athletic director at scandal-plagued Baylor, is the new athletic director at Liberty University.The school made the announcement on its web site Monday. McCaw replaces Jeff Barber, who resigned abruptly on Nov. 18.McCaw spent 13 years at Baylor, and the school won four national championships and 56 Big 12 championships on his watch.He resigned in May after being sanctioned and placed on probation by the university when its athletic program became embroiled in a sexual assault scandal that led to the dismissal of football coach Art Briles and the demotion and eventual departure of university President Ken Starr from the administration.Baylor, which hired a law firm to conduct an investigation, said McCaw and Briles, among others, failed to report an alleged gang-rape in 2012 by five members of the football team against a female student-athlete to the universitys judicial affairs office.Just last week, two other women who reported being gang-raped by football players in 2012 reached settlements with the school, and Baylors regents said 17 women have reported domestic violence or sexual assault involving 19 football players since 2011. The school also is facing several federal lawsuits by women who say the university ignored or tried to suppress their allegations of sexual and physical assault.Baylor, like Liberty, is a Baptist university.Liberty made no mention in its announcement of McCaws reason for leaving Baylor, but noted that he guided the athletic program to unprecedented success.Ians success really speaks for itself, Liberty President Jerry Falwell said in the announcement. You look at what Baylor was able to do during his tenure, it fits perfectly with where we see our sports programs going. This is an exciting time for us.McCaw, who said elevating Liberty to Football Bowl Subdivision status is very much at the forefront, is eager to get started.My vision for Liberty is to position it as a pre-eminent Christian athletic program in America and garner the same type of appeal among the Christian community as Notre Dame achieves among the Catholic community and BYU garners from the Mormons, McCaw said.Liberty to me represents a pinnacle of professional and personal opportunity where were going to be able to develop champions for Christ, develop a world-class student athlete experience, and achieve victory with integrity. We certainly want Christian student athletes to grow up dreaming of competing for Liberty University. Sean Couturier Jersey .

Jordan Lynch, the all-purpose Heisman Trophy finalist from Northern Illinois, failed to make it into that exclusive club. LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson shrugged off chants of Heisman! Heisman! from Cardinals fans and seemed satisfied knowing he had played a role in one of the programs biggest wins.A very big role worthy of all the adulation.Jackson ran for four touchdowns and threw for another as No. 10 Louisville poured it on for a 63-20 victory on Saturday, the most points ever allowed by Florida State.His performance helped Cardinals establish themselves as a title contender in the Atlantic Coast Conference -- and the national crown -- by dismantling the second-ranked Seminoles in one of the worst defeats in FSU history.What was billed as an ACC showdown quickly turned into a rout. And after blowing second-half leads against Florida State the past two years, Louisville kept the pressure on.Jackson ran for 146 yards and four TDs and passed for 216 yards and a score to lead the Cardinals (3-0, 2-0 ACC).The quarterbacks performance raised his season TD total to 18 and drew high praise from none other than NFL free agent Michael Vick, a dual-threat QB himself not long ago at Virginia Tech.Vick tweeted, Lamar Jackson 5x better than what I was at V-Tech....Enough said!! (hash)futureJackson was flattered but took it in stride, I guess its just helping us win, you know? I dont really look at that.Louisville coach Bobby Petrino talked about his quarterbacks poise.Im just proud of how he prepared for the game, how he was able to stay calm, he said. He was able to focus and concentrate.Jackson wasnt the only star in Louisvilles domination.Louisvilles defense chipped in with five sacks. The Cardinals also held FSU (2-1, 0-1) to 284 yards and forced two turnovers. The Seminoles only bright spot was 10 straight points to get within 14-10 before Jackson took over.Florida State scored another 10 points late and avoided its worst loss ever.Give credit to Louisville, they did a great job, FSU coach Jimbo Fisher said. You dont play with fire and let teams get ahead of you.Jaire Alexander contributed two 60-yard punt returns -- including a 69-yarder for a TD -- and a fumble recovery leading to another Louisville score. Brandon Radcliff rushed for 118 yards and a score and Jeremy Smith ran for two TDs.Jackson added to his collection of highlights as he faked one defender and spun off another en route to his final TD run of 47 yards. It followed his interception on the previous series, one sign that he is human. Michael Raffl Jersey. I told my team I owed them four touchdowns, he said. I was like, Im determined to score right here.THE TAKEAWAYFlorida State: The Seminoles seemed out of synch on both sides of the ball but especially defensively, possibly due to the absence of injured defensive back Derwin James . Without him available as a spy, FSU appeared helpless in its efforts to contain Jackson. Dalvin Cook wasnt a factor in rushing for 54 yards on 16 carries.Louisville: The Cardinals seized their moment on the national stage by stepping on the gas instead of wilting in the second half. With so many players stepping up to help Jackson is an encouraging sign as Louisville looks to keep opponents from keying on him.CONCENTRATIONA pause followed Florida States Tarvarus McFaddens apparent breakup of a right sideline pass for James Quick. But the Cardinals senior stayed with the ball, controlling it between his knees and running 44 yards to FSUs 2 to set up a Jackson 1-yard TD run. When I looked down I saw the ball and said I gotta run, Quick said.ALI TRIBUTELouisville paid tribute to late heavyweight champion and hometown hero Muhammad Ali. The Cardinals red chrome helmets featured a white butterfly sticker with Ali in the middle; The Greatests daughter, Laila, was ESPNs celebrity picker; and the school presented Alis family with a framed No. 75 jersey honoring his community service initiative.POLL IMPLICATIONSFlorida State: The Seminoles were never in the game after their first TD and will fall in the Top 25, the question is how far. They had hoped to establish themselves as division favorites and national contenders in the game.Louisville: This was a signature win for the program and now its just a matter of how far the Cardinals will jump in the Top 25 after positioning themselves to contend for a playoff spot.UP NEXT:Florida State: The Seminoles stay on the road and will visit South Florida, seeking redemption along with their third win in four meetings against the Bulls.Louisville: The Cardinals head east on I-64 to face Marshall, looking to end a four-game losing streak against the Thundering Herd.----AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys NFL China Cheap Jerseys 2019 NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Jerseys 2019 Cheap Jerseys Wholesale ' ' ' 

LAS VEGAS -- When I told people this week that I was working on an NBA season betting guide, the most common response was Why?The conventional wisdom is that we should just skip the regular season because the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers are on a collision course to meet again in the NBA Finals. http://www.steelersrookiestore.com/Steelers-Chris-Boswell-Jersey/ . Any future-book bets on any other teams are seen as throwing money away. My ESPN Chalk colleague Erin Rynning even says that the only way to bet futures on any other team is if you can predict injuries to LeBron James or to one of the Warriors stars (and in the case of the Warriors, who added Kevin Durant to an already loaded roster, you might need to take away more than two stars to keep them from contending).But were going ahead with this NBA betting guide anyway because, as I like to tell the naysayers: Even if we concede that the Warriors (prohibitive 2-7 favorites to win the Western Conference) and Cavaliers (1-4 to win the Eastern Conference) are destined to meet in the Finals, there are still plenty of betting opportunities this season, as there are 1,230 regular-season games and between 60 and 105 playoff games (the former if all series are sweeps; the latter if all go the maximum 7 games). Besides, nowadays more people bet their futures on over/under season win totals. With traditional futures, if you like a team, they have to win the title (or their conference if youre betting that way), but with over/under season win totals they just have to exceed expectations to cash the bet. You also have the option to face a team by betting them to fall short of the season win total.So Ill start with a quick note on future bets for this season, then Rynning and I will give our best over/under season win totals and some teams were looking to bet and fade in games early this season. http://www.steelersrookiestore.com/Steelers-Coty-Sensabaugh-Jersey/ .

It is a cliché dragged out by fans and pundits regularly when discussions take place around which teams are better than others. TOURS, France -- Marcel Kittel overtook Mark Cavendish at the line to win the 12th stage of the Tour de France on Thursday, while Chris Froome avoided a late crash to protect his big lead. Cavendish attacked first but Kittels late burst got him to the finish first by half a wheel to earn his second stage win in three days, and third of this race. "As we say in Germany, good things come in three," Kittel said. "It was a real sprint today, thats why Im so happy." German riders have won five stages so far -- with Tony Martin winning Wednesdays time trial and Andre Greipel also winning a sprint stage. Beating Cavendish for pure speed, a rare feat, will further boost Kittels confidence. "Its a big achievement for me, my team, and for German sprinters as well," Kittel said. It has been a nervy Tour so far and about 20 riders were caught in a crash near the end. Froomes Sky teammate, Edvald Boasson Hagen, broke his right shoulder blade and dropped out of the tour. Froome was close enough to "hear the crash" but just far ahead enough to avoid it. "Its always like that at the end before a sprint," Froome said. "Its scary for everyone." Froome still leads Alejandro Valverde by 3 minutes, 25 seconds and is 3:54 ahead of two-time former champion Alberto Contador. "At the moment Im trying to save as much energy as possible for Mont Ventoux at the end of the week and then the Alps next week," said Froome, who dominated the first big mountain stage of the race in the Pyrenees last Saturday. "Mont Ventoux will be the next really hard day for the general classification," he added. While Froome is firmly on track to become the second British rider to ever win the race -- Bradley Wiggins won it ahead of Froome last year -- countryman Cavendish has had a frustrating race. The Tours best sprinter two years ago, he looked well set to clinch his 25th career stage win as his Omega Pharma QuickStep teammate Gert Steegmans got him in a great position. Surprisingly, Cavvendish did not have the legs to hold on. Blank Jersey. "I could jump onto his wheel and it worked out really well for us," Kittel said. "Im very proud of that victory. I showed today that I can beat the best sprinters." Cavendish did not look for excuses. "I can go back and look over it but he was just faster," he said. "(My teammates) delivered me at the right time. I was just beaten by a better guy." Peter Sagan finished third and holds a comfortable 96-point lead in his bid to retain the best sprinters green jersey. Cavendish was second, Greipel third and Kittel fourth. The peloton rolled through vineyards and alongside the Chinon forest on a 218-kilometre (135.5-mile) route from Fougeres to Tours in the Loire valley, a picturesque region dotted with imposing chateaux such as the spiral-towered Chateau dUsse, which dates from the 11th century, and the 16th century Chateau dAzay-le-Rideau, which rests on the water. Keen to keep their riders near the front of the main pack and limit the risk of crashes, Froomes Sky and Contadors Saxo-Tinkoff squads took turns pushing from the front. "That is the best position to be in because there are crashes everywhere," Froome said. "I did hear the crash behind me." Saxo-Tinkoff tried to pull away with about five kilometres (three miles) left, but Ian Stannard helped Froome catch them. Moments later, Norwegian rider Boasson Hagens tour ended when he was the worst affected in a pile-up of 20-odd riders who were sent flying backwards, upwards and sideways off their bikes. "Its a real shame for Edvald and a setback for the team," Sky manager Dave Brailsford said. "But ultimately were still confident that, with the riders weve got left, we can pull together and see the race through." Then, with the finish in sight, Froome survived a delicate moment when he appeared to be nudged by Tom Veelers. "I must have hit 10 guys on the run-in today," Froome said. "Thats the way it is."

Detroit general manager Ken Holland is working on re-signing Mrazek to a multiyear contract.The 24-year-old Coreau played for the Grand Rapids Griffins in the American Hockey League the past two years.

On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111.REGINA -- Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Darian Durant took another step forward Friday but not enough to earn head coach Cory Chamblins approval. Durant practised a second straight day after suffering a sprained right foot in Saskatchewans 39-28 road win last week over the Toronto Argonauts. It was another positive sign for Durant, who wore a walking boot earlier in the week and didnt practise before Thursday. But Chamblin continues to take his time deciding whether Durant or backup Drew Willy will start Sunday nights home game against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. "He (Durant) did take two days in a row so that looks good," Chamblin told reporters. "He did have a little bit of pain after (Thursdays) practice and he fought through it. "If hes healthy I guess hell probably get that but I cant say 100 per cent hes the quarterback right now at this point. Too many other things can happen between now and then." Durant, 30, has been excellent for the unbeaten Riders (3-0). He has completed 54-of-75 passes (72 per cent) for 674 yards with eight touchdowns and no interceptions and has a league-best efficiency rating of 135.1. With Durant, the Riders offence leads the CFL in scoring (38 points per game) and rushing (173 yards) and is second in total yards (398.7). Running back Kory Sheets is the leagues rushing leader with 442 yards and is averaging an impressive 6.4 yards per carry. Thats not good news for a Hamilton defence allowing 147.3 yards per game rushing and 8.8 yards per carry this season. The unit is also giving up 29.7 points per game. But Saskatchewan can do more than just run as Taj Smith has a team-high 11 catches for 200 yards and three TDs. If Durant cant play, sophomore Willy will make just his second CFL start. He was 22-of-34 passing for 225 yards and a TD with two interceptions in a 28-17 loss to Montreal last September. On Thursday, Durant said his foot didnt bother him when he ran straight ahead or dropped back to pass. That wasnt the case when he rolled out of the pocket or tried to execute play-action pass plays but Durant added hes played through worse pain. "Im a competitor and theres not one game I want to sit out," he said. "It will take a lot to hold me back. "I feel like I have a high tolerance for pain so Ill be fine." Chamblin is trusting Durant to be honest with him regarding his foot. "He knows how much pain he has," Chamblin said. "Darian and I have a good relationship that hed tell me if it was that bad." SSundays game will also mark the return of Hamilton coach Kent Austin to Regina. Cheap Air Jordan 10 Retro Yellow. . Austin spent his first seven CFL seasons as a quarterback with Saskatchewan, leading the club to a wild 43-40 Grey Cup win over Hamilton at Rogers Centre in 89. He became Saskatchewans head coach in 2007, guiding the Riders to a 12-6 record and 23-19 Grey Cup win over Winnipeg. Two months later, Austin left to become the offensive co-ordinator at his alma mater, Ole Miss, before being named Cornells head coach Jan. 26, 2010. He returned north of the border Dec. 17, 2012 as Hamiltons head coach, GM and director of football operations. Earlier this week, Austin said some of his most cherished football memories came while in Regina but the game was more about the two teams on the field than his return to Saskatchewan. But theres no shortage of other storylines Sunday. Slotback Geroy Simon, 37, acquired from B.C. in the off-season, will make his Riders debut. The CFLs all-time receiving yards leader missed the first three games with a leg injury needs 29 catches to break Ben Cahoons league record of 1,017. Riders linebacker Renauld Williams faces the Ticats for the first time since they released him this off-season. Williams amassed 185 tackles over two seasons with Hamilton after spending his first three years with Saskatchewan. Hamiltons roster features quarterback Henry Burris, slotback Andy Fantuz and defensive end Shomari Williams, all former Riders who left Saskatchewan to sign with the Ticats as free agents. Fantuz is injured but Chamblin is well aware of how dangerous the elusive Burris can be. "Hanks just always going to give you troubles," he said. "If you cover them all in the pass, hell run and if you do the run, hell pass. "Hanks a pretty good player." Saskatchewan drafted Williams first overall in 2010 and the 28-year-old Toronto native played three years there before signing with Hamilton this off-season to be closer to home. The former Queens star is looking forward to playing before the Riders rabid fans. "The crowd is pretty crazy, probably one of the craziest crowds they have in the CFL," he said. "I have a lot of friends there and it will be nice to go back but its another game, really, at the end of the day." Williams said Hamiltons top defensive priority will be containing Sheets. "We want to be a great run-stopping defence so we can set things up for the pass," he said. "We definitely have to stop Kory Sheets first."

CHICAGO -- Penn State athletic director Sandy Barbour said opposing programs are lying to recruits by telling them the Nittany Lions could be put on probation by the NCAA in the wake of recent allegations in the Jerry Sandusky scandal.Its not factual, she said Tuesday at Big Ten Media Days. Its one thing to take facts and skew them a little bit. Its another thing not to be factual.Barbour said the NCAA is very pleased with how Penn State handled the matter and that the governing body as well as the Big Ten considers the matter closed.Penn State is free of sanctions and back to the full 85 scholarships, but it cant escape a shadow cast by one of the biggest scandals to hit a college program.The Sandusky case has been in the headlines again lately because of recently disclosed allegations from men who have accused Sandusky of sexual abuse that raised new questions about what his fellow Penn State assistant coaches might have seen or known before his November 2011 arrest -- and why they have largely kept quiet. The allegations have also raised questions about just how far back late coach Joe Paterno knew of the situation.Negative recruiting is nothing new and its hardly a surprise that other schools in recent years might have used the Sandusky case against Penn State. But if what Barbour is saying is true, thats taking things to a different level. And coach James Franklin said there are issues that might need to be addressed at the conference level.Barbour would not reveal which schools -- or how many -- have been lying to recruits about potential sanctions in the wake of the recent Sandusky developments.

                                      ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Texas Rangers seemed to have everything lined up perfectly going into the postseason, with their two aces ready to go at home for the start of the AL Division Series. Dennis Rodman Jersey .Instead, the AL West champions are headed to Toronto facing the possibility of getting swept in the best-of-five matchup after Cole Hamels and Yu Darvish both struggled.Weve got a good team. We all believe in each other, All-Star center fielder Ian Desmond said. Just keep on fighting.Darvish allowed four homers, three in the same inning, and the Rangers lost 5-3 on a dreary, misty Friday afternoon in Texas.That came a day after All-Star lefty Hamels, the MVP of the World Series and NLCS for Philadelphia in 2008, allowed seven runs in 3 1/3 innings in his worst-ever postseason start in a series-opening 10-1 romp by the wild-card Blue Jays.But the Rangers also remember what happened last October, when Toronto lost the first two games of the ALDS at home before rallying to win the series.Why cant we do it this year, too? You never know until the last out, shortstop Elvis Andrus said. We still believe that we can win this series.Game 3 is Sunday night.Were up against it. Weve got to win three in a row, second-year Rangers manager Jeff Banister said. Weve got to start with one.Kevin Pillar, Ezequiel Carrera and Edwin Encarnacion, who ended the AL wild-card game with a three-run homer in the 11th inning, hit solo homers in a five-batter span in the fifth to go up 5-0. Troy Tulowitzkis two-run drive in the second put 20-game winner J.A. Happ and the Blue Jays ahead to stay.I was struggling with the strike zone and then was getting behind in the count and they were looking for the fastballs, Darvish said through his interpreter. And when I left it on the plate, they got it.It was only Darvishs second postseason appearance in his five seasons with the Rangers after coming from Japan. The right-hander lost the 2012 AL wild-card game to Baltimore, and missed all of last season after Tommy John surgery.Darvish had as many strikeouts (four) in his five innings as homers allowed, becoming the first pitcher in the postseason to allow four homers in a game since Minnesotas Rick Reed against Oakland in Game 3 of the 2002 ALDS. He started upward in disbelief after the balls landed in the seats.Texas outhit the Blue Jays 13-6 and had multiple runners on base against Happ in each of the first four innings. The only time they scored off the lefty was on Ian Desmonds RBI single in the fourth.The Rangers have lost five straight ALDS games to Toronto since winning the first two games in Toronto last October. Texas dropped to 1-11 in ALDS games in its home ballpark.Texas scored twice in the eighth, including Carlos Gomezs single that struck Francisco Liriano near the back of the head. The pitcher walked off the mound, and an ambulance was waiting after the game to take him to the hospital for what Gibbons referred to as some further tests.The ball off Gomezs bat was measured at 102 mph, and Liriano turned away just in time to avoid being hit in the face.Its tough to see that, but its part of the game, Gomez said. Just wait for the good news that hes OK.Roberto Osuna, the 21-year-old closer, then came on to get the final five outs, the first when Desmond greeted him with an RBI grounder. Adrian Beltre had a leadoff double in the ninth, but got stranded there.OUT AT HOMEDesmond had a leadoff double in the seventh, but later thrown later was thrown out at the plate when third baseman Josh Donaldson fielded a grounder and threw home. The out call stood after a replay challenge by the Rangers.The fact that were talking about that is kind of what the issue is. ... That shouldnt have been a make-or-break, Desmond said. Obviously, Ive got to score. It was a tough play.COOL DOWNAt first pitch, it was overcast with a temperature of 67 degrees, but the game started on time after rain fell overnight and in the early-morning hours at Globe Life Park. It was 90 degrees Thursday at the start of the series opener that was played under bright, sunny conditions.UP NEXTBlue Jays: One of the two losses by RHP Aaron Sanchez, the AL ERA leader at 3.00, was to Texas. He gave up a season high-matching six runs and was the loser in that May 15 game with the bench-clearing brawl after Toronto star Jose Bautista was punched by Rougned Odor.Rangers: RHP Colby Lewis is 4-1 with a 2.38 ERA in nine career postseason games (eight starts) for Texas. In 2010, he won the AL Championship Series clincher to get the Rangers to their first World Series, and beat San Francisco in Game 3 for their only victory in that series.o Joe Dumars Jersey .Y. -- Sabres defenceman Tyler Myers had no intention of changing his hard-hitting style before taking part in a disciplinary hearing for his illegal check to New Jersey forward Dainius Zubrus head.

Victorino is batting sixth and playing right field after missing two games because of back tightness. Michael Cheika is reluctant to heed fresh calls to shift Israel Folau to the centres as the Wallabies travel to Wellington striving to arrest their worst losing streak in more than a decade.The Wallabies havent won a match since Cheika was named world coach of the year last November, while Saturday nights humiliating 42-8 loss to the All Blacks was Australias heaviest defeat on home soil in 113 years.Cheika is taking full accountability for the World Cup finalists alarming fall from grace, but has also placed his under-performing troops on notice that none is safe from the axe as they regroup to face New Zealand again on Saturday.Ill have a look at the whole team as far as the set-ups concerned and once weve had a good review of the match, both today and tomorrow, give the opportunities to the players that want to stand up and put themselves on the line for Australia in Wellington, said Cheika on Sunday.Major strike weapon Folau had little opportunity or impact from fullback, prompting further calls to play him at outside centre where incumbent Tevita Kuridrani had a poor night and has failed to impress this season.But Cheika indicated it was unlikely.Hed be an option, yeah. Well have a look at it, said Cheika. Hes always in the selection mix that way.But Ive always seen Israel as in the fullback role and thats been his main role and its probably somewhere Id like to see him keep playing.Tournament-ending injuries Matt Giteau, who suffered a broken ankle in Saturdays Rugby Championship opener, and Rob Horne, who likely requires a shoulder reconstruction, will likely force Cheika to at least find a new inside centre.Matt Toomua, who replaced Giteau on a disastrous night at ANZ Stadium, must pass a series of concusssion tests before being considered for the return bout in New Zealand, where the Wallabies must win for the first time in 15 years to keep their Bledisloe Cup hopes alive. Jerry Stackhouse Jersey. With Giteau and Toomua used as second playmakers, Cheika said Quade Cooper was a definite inside centre option, along with rookie Reece Hodge and fellow squad member Samu Kerevi.Cheika has numerous other worries, including a horror tally of 38 missed tackles.Blindside flanker Scott Fardy could gain a recall after surprisingly being relegated to the bench before the Wallabies lost five lineouts on their throw in Saturdays drubbing.Cheika accepted responsibility for not having the Wallabies in the right mindset but hoped the six-tries-to-one rout served as a wake-up call.Theres no better reality check on that than what happened yesterday, he said after the Wallabies slumped to five straight Test losses for the first time since the 2005 team under Eddie Jones.Weve got to keep building after last year ... We got to a high point, which maybe a lot of people didnt expect, including perhaps some of the players (who) didnt understand the potential they could reach when they really dug in.Maybe theyre dealing with that, maybe theyre battling with that, getting back to that level, but they will.Cheika, though, is under no illusions as to what level is required immediately for the Wallabies to stop the All Blacks from retaining trans-Tasman bragging rights for a 14th straight year.Were going to have to improve by 40 points if we want to do that in the turnaround, he said.Thats what were going to try to do this week.
