LOS ANGELES -- The streaking Clippers are playing with purpose. Cheap Air Max 2017 . Even after handling a quality opponent, they hardly sounded satisfied.Chris Paul had 26 points and 12 assists, Blake Griffin also scored 26 and Los Angeles beat the Toronto Raptors 123-115 on Monday night in a matchup of early-season division leaders.We got stops early in the beginning of the second half and got in transition and got buckets, Griffin said. We havent been as good in the last three games in my opinion, but its still great to start out like this.DeAndre Jordan added 17 points and 15 rebounds for the Clippers, who improved the NBAs best record to 13-2 with their 10th victory in 11 games.J.J. Redick scored 20 points as Los Angeles snapped a four-game losing streak to Toronto. Jamal Crawford had 12 and Luc Mbah a Moute chipped in with 10.We still have to be better. There was a lot of turnovers, fouls, and we gave up easy buckets for Toronto down the stretch, Paul said.The Clippers led by 17 in the second half but the Raptors cut the margin to 119-115 on a 3-pointer by Kyle Lowry with less than a minute to play.Redick made four free throws down the stretch to seal it.We scrapped and fought and didnt lay down even after what happened to us last night, Toronto coach Dwane Casey said, referring to a close loss at Sacramento that ended with a disputed call.We got enough offense but until we improve on defense and get stops, we arent going anywhere. It seems like every game we play lately is an offensive slugfest.Lowry led Toronto with 27 points and DeMar DeRozan, averaging 31.4 per game, added 25. Jonas Valanciunas scored 15 for the Raptors.The Clippers outrebounded Toronto 42-32.Blake is doing everything for us. The fact that he can bring the ball up and make decisions gives us another dimension offensively, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said.It was the second time this season Toronto (8-6) dropped both ends of back-to-back games. The Raptors, who played for the fifth time in seven nights, have lost four of five.The teams traded 10-0 runs late in the second quarter. Redicks three free throws with less than a second remaining gave the Clippers a 54-45 lead at halftime.TIP-INSRaptors: Lowry, DeRozan and Jordan were teammates on the 2016 USA Olympic Mens Basketball team that won the gold medal in Rio.Clippers: Entering the game, Los Angeles led the NBA with a plus-13.7 points per game differential over its opponents and was second in the league in scoring defense, giving up 95.4 points per game. ...

Jordan shot 9 of 14 on free throws and has made 1,007 in his career.CAMEROON CONNECTIONMbah a Moute and Raptors F Pascal Siakam are two of the three active NBA players from Cameroon. The game marked the first time in league history two players from Cameroon faced each other.CONTROVERSIAL CALLAt the end of Sunday nights Toronto-Sacramento game, Terrence Ross 3-pointer at the buzzer off an inbounds play would have sent the game to overtime, but after a replay review the basket was disallowed and the Raptors lost 102-99. The play was ruled a clock malfunction because the inbounds pass was deflected, and officials said the clock should have started once the ball was touched.I thought it was unfair. I think the game is human error. I dont think you should be able to go over and look at the clock and do that, Rivers said. I thought it was awful. I really do. I know they, meaning the league, came back and said it was the right call, but I still disagree. If they reviewed every play, our games would take 16 hours.Casey wasnt seeking any sympathy.Sometimes bad things happen in life to you. Its how you bounce back after a game like that that counts. There are 29 other teams that dont feel sorry for us, he said.UNMATCHED PRODUCTIONPaul is the only NBA player since 1983-84 with 120 assists, 42 steals and only 28 turnovers in the first 14 games of a season.UP NEXTRaptors: Toronto continues a five-game road trip, its second-longest of the season, on Wednesday at Houston.

He bears down and its been really impressive to watch him pitch lately.The Rockies first-round draft pick out of Oklahoma in 2013, Gray went without a win in his first 13 starts -- the longest streak at the start of a career in team history.

You want to keep going and then you end up screwing it up for weeks. They checked him out. Did everything, but felt theyd get a better read (Saturday).Teheran left after trying to run down Mark Reynolds infield hit, though the pitcher said he may have tweaked the muscle throwing a pitch in the previous inning.I was feeling a little discomfort and there was some pain, he said. I decided to come out of the game. I didnt want to make it worse.Teheran walked off the field under his own power and was relieved by Joel De La Cruz.Trailing 1-0 in the sixth, the Rockies went in front behind a four-run burst. DJ LeMahieu started the sixth with a walk and Arenado, coming off a scheduled rest day Thursday, drove a 2-2 offering from De La Cruz (0-3) into the bleachers in left-center field for his 24th home run.

The last thing Sean Williams needed on Wednesday was to get the flu. Authentic NFL Jerseys China . It was the day before his Test comeback, if you can call it that given his career had only featured two Tests before this one. Perhaps its better to say it was the day before his restart, because thats how Williams saw this series.It was another chance for him to prove himself after years of yo-yoing into and out of the selectors minds, especially for the longer format. They knew he was talented and tough enough - his performances in limited-overs cricket proved that - but they werent sure he was level-headed enough, mature enough, or even committed enough to don the whites.Such was their uncertainty that Williams was not under serious consideration for this series after being left out of the Zimbabwe A side to play South Africa A earlier this month. Despite being summoned to Bulawayo from a training camp in Harare specifically for the second fixture of the A series, Williams was excluded from the XI and told to work on his mindset instead if he wanted to be considered for the Tests. Then, he was left off the squad list anyway. Rumour has it that it was only on captain Graeme Cremers insistence that Williams was eventually included. Then the flu struck.So although Williams was coughing heavily, feverish and weak, he owed it to his captain, if no one else, to fight through it on the first day. He was needed just after an hours play, his team already in a precarious situation. Zimbabwe were 35 for 3 and had been stunned by a barrage of short balls from Neil Wagner, who greeted Williams with his most hostile one. It struck him on the helmet and broke the grille.Williams had barely had time to recover from that moment when Wagner did it again and hit him again. With the same result. Except that the second time, Williams had played a pull and umpire Paul Reiffel thought his bat, not his helmet, had sent the ball to midwicket. Williams was given out. He did not move. He pointed to his helmet as though to offer an explanation but only saw a raised index finger. As he walked off, Williams continued to look at and gesture to the helmet, blaming it and himself and knowing he had made the wrong impression on the powers that be, though not entirely through his own fault.If they were uncertain about his desire to play Test cricket before, what happened next would have strengthened that assumption. Williams could not be at the ground the next day. Or for most of the one after that. Racked by chills and injected with antibiotics, Williams best option was to stay in bed to avoid passing it on to his team-mates, some of whom had already started to show symptoms. Regis Chakabva also could not take the field for New Zealands innings, although he was diagnosed with tonsillitis, which is not contagious.Both men were summoned from their sick beds towards the end of day three. Even though both would only be able to bat after five wickets had fallen because of the time spent off the field, at 17 for 4 that was imminent. Not only would they have to bat, they would have to save the team from major embarrassment. When the fifth wicket fell, Zimbabwe had stabilised and Cremer opted to take one for the team instead of send his ailing team-mates out. He saw the day to the close and, for the second time, he batted for Williams.That night, Williams wife Chantelle, who had also had the illness passed on to her, became worse. She almost fainted from the symptoms and even thought she may have had a small fit. With that on his mind, Williams travelled to Queens on Sunday morning. Chantelle, her voice rasping from coughing, her throat hoarse, was there with her sisters. The family had come to rally around their man and their team. And they were not disappointed.Williams entertained from the get-go, with shots that the rest of the line-up, barring Sikandar Razas carefree cameo, seemed too hesitant to play. He drove and swept and used his feet. He found gaps in the field and went both through and over it.The only moments that gave away that he may not have been feeling up to scratch came when he called for water five minutes before lunch because he simply couldnt wait that long and when, in the drinks break in the second session, he went down on all fours in a part-stretch, part-retch with the look of a knackered man plastered across his face. For the rest of his innings, Williams was in complete control.With Cremer playing the perfect foil at the other end, Williams gave Zimbabwe hope they could make New Zealand bat again. He gave them the belief Makhaya Ntini has been trying to drill into them; the kind of belief that only comes with performance. What they should realise is that they are better than what they think they are, Ntini said. They can do anything like any other team. They need to be given the space to understand that they can compete. Zimbabwe is going somewhere.For a minute short of three-and-a-half hours, Williams was in the space where he understood that. He repaid his captains faith in him and he proved to his doubters within the administration that he is capable and confident player, a scrapper that they should savour having around and a talent they should not take for granted in a country where the player pool remains shallow. So even though the last thing Williams needed was to get the flu, it will be the first thing he thinks of when he looks back on how he broke through and proved that he belongs. China Jerseys .ca.

ATLANTA -- The Atlanta Braves are thrilled with the job that interim manager Brian Snitker did this season. Tre Mason Auburn Jersey .Theyre still going to look at other potential candidates to lead the team in 2017.Less than 24 hours after the Braves finished a last-place season with a flourish, team president John Hart said former managers Bud Black and Ron Washington would be interviewed for the job, and other outside candidates may be considered as well.That doesnt mean Snitker is out of the running.Brian Snitker did a tremendous job, Hart said Monday. The year was spiraling out of control. He restored order.The Braves won 50 of their last 97 games, including their finale at Turner Field on Sunday. The team is moving to a new stadium in the suburbs next season.Atlanta was 9-28 when manager Fredi Gonzalez was fired and stood at 18-46 when it began a dramatic turnaround under Snitker.Hart and general manager John Coppolella both said Snitker was a strong candidate to keep his job based on the way the team responded to his leadership.Snitker even attended an end-of-the-year media session, insisting hes comfortable with the process and doesnt mind waiting for the Braves to make a decision.If I was them, Id be doing the same thing, Snitker said.Hart said it was imperative to look at all potential options before deciding who should be in the dugout for the first season at SunTrust Park.Black spent nearly 8 1/2 years as San Diegos manager, going 649-713 before he was fired during the 2015 season. He had only two winning records and never led the Padres to the playoffs, though he was picked as NL Manager of the Year in 2010.Black appeared to be in line for the Washington Nationals job going into this season, but negotiations broke down and Dusty Baker was hired instead.Washington spent nearly eight seasons as Texas manager, guiding the Rangers to consecutive World Series appearances from 2010-11 and capturing a pair of AL Manager of the Year awards. He surprisingly resigned during the 2014 season, revealing later that he stepped down because he had been unfaithful to his wife of 42 years.Washington spent the last two seasons as a coach with the Oakland Athletics, but his ties to Hart go back to when both worked for the Rangers.When you go outside and talk (to candidates), you learn things, Hart saId. There are a lot of smart guys out there. It would be shame on us if we didnt take this opportunity to take a look at the landscape and get a feel for what people think about our club, our players.In addition to Snitker, the Braves have also interviewed coaches Terry Pendleton, Eddie Perez and Bo Porter. But Coppolella seemed to rule them out when he said it was unlikely the team would hire someone with no managerial experience over Snitker, especially off his own coaching staff.Besides the managerial search, here are some things to watch for as the Braves head into the offseason:---BIG SPENDERS: After several years cutting payroll and bulking up the farm system, the Braves plan to be a player in the free-agent market this winter. The team took on much of Matt Kemps $21.75 million annual salary through 2019 in a midseason trade, and the move paid off handsomely. Kemp (35 HRs, 108 RBI) paired with slugger Freddie Freeman (.302, 34 HRs, 91 RBI) to lead Atlantas resurgence. With the move to SunTrust Park and an expected boost in revenue, team owners have cleared the way for a payroll increase.WHERE TO SPEND: The Braves are likely to go mostly for starting pitching. Julio Teheran has ace-like stuff, though a lack of run support left him with a 7-10 record. Mike Foltynewicz (9-5, 4.31 ERA) looks as though hes finally ready to hold down a spot in the rotation, and Matt Wisler (7-13, 5.00) showed flashes of potential but needs to be more consistent. Coppolella said the team is looking to add at least two new starting pitchers and maybe three for 2017.STANDING PAT: The Braves are happy with their everyday lineup. Rookie shortstop Dansby Swanson is a star in the making, and Adonis Garcia (.273, 14 HRs, 65 RBI) returned from a stint in the minors to nail down the third base job. Tyler Flowers did a solid job at catcher, though the Braves would like to sign another veteran to share the job. Also keep an eye on second base, where top prospect Ozzie Albies is on the verge of breaking through, though a late-season injury in the minors could set him back.THE BACK END: Jim Johnson agreed to a two-year contract extension on the final day of the regular season and will go into 2017 as the expected closer. His presence gives the Braves a chance to bring along some of their younger pitchers in less-stressful roles, including hard-throwing Mauricio Cabrera and Jose Ramirez. Former closer Arodys Vizcaino could be in the mix if he can bounce back from shoulder problems that shut him down this season.---Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pnewberry1963 .

Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview. "We just dont know what the results from Torino will be," Budgett said. Pakistan had to wait a week following victory over England at The Oval to have their rise to the No. 1 Test ranking confirmed and they will get only a couple of days to enjoy the accolade before walking out at the Ageas Bowl, on the ring-road-and-retail-park outskirts of Southampton, with the slightly less awe-inspiring billing of ninth-best ODI side in the world.Thats life in the tightly scheduled world of international cricket, as Frank Sinatra didnt quite sing: Riding high in August, shot down in August. Azhar Ali, Pakistans ODI captain, played his part in the Test sides success, spanking the six that effectively took them to No. 1 (once the elements had nixed Indias chances of a 3-0 win in the Caribbean) and he is hopeful that some of the positivity engendered by the first leg of the tour will bleed through into the rest.Misbah-ul-Haq has been rightly hailed for his leadership in Tests but even he had his struggles with Pakistans 50-over cricket and since handing over to Azhar after the last World Cup results in ODIs have continued to be indifferent. They managed to hold off West Indies as Bangladesh surged through to make the Champions Trophy cut-off last year but now sit outside the top eight, with qualification for the World Cup at stake.Nevertheless, Azhar was able to enjoy the south-coast sunshine and bask briefly in a little reflected success before turning his attention to the challenge ahead in the five-match series against England.Confidence is very high and belief is there, obviously coming in from the Test series, we had a very good couple of months here. We take that confidence into the one-day internationals as well, Azhar said.It is a massive boost and a proud moment for Pakistan cricket and the whole nation is very happy about it, as players the team is really happy about it. Its definitely a good thing for us, our one-day ranking is not great right now but we will take the opportunity the way the team is performing, hopefully we can convert it into ODIs as well. He could also point to the low expectations people had of Pakistans chances of Test success in England - where they had not played in six years - when the team turned up to make the Ageas Bowl their base for a preparatory camp two months ago. No one rated us very highly [when we arrived] - a few people said we would be competitive but there were doubts if we could win the Test matches here. The boys really believed in the Test matches so here also, we believe we can do it.Pakistan were handed a 3-1 defeat by Eoin Morgans side in the more familiar environs of the UAE last winter but this series will take on greater significance, with the next two ICC 50-over trophies to be contested in England. Mike Williams Clemson Jersey. Azhar described it as a good opportunity for us to keep in touch with the conditions and was also hopeful of ending a personal run of 12 innings and more than a year without passing 50 in ODIs.When you play international cricket, pressure is always there, he said. Ive had a few starts in recent months but I didnt convert into big scores so I will focus on that. As a batsman I need to score some big runs.Morgan would doubtless concur about the twin demands of captaincy and scoring heavily. He has not played for a month, after chipping a bone in his finger while playing for Middlesex, but proclaimed that a lack of matches doesnt bother me at all. His last half-century in either limited-overs format came in the UAE last November but he did find some form with an unbeaten 47 when England last played at the Ageas Bowl - an eight-wicket T20 win against Sri Lanka - and it is a ground where he averages 65.85, with two hundreds, in ODIs.Morgans style of captaincy has largely been free of prescriptions, preferring to grant his side the freedom to play in the way that suits them best, and he is also wary of predictions. Englands No. 5 ranking in part reflects how far they had slipped by the time of the World Cup (when they did even worse than Pakistan), as well as their inconsistency despite a year of record-breaking performances, and Morgan was grateful that the ECBs professed commitment to the one-day game extended to providing him with a full-strength side at the end of long summer.Ben Stokes is set to return after suffering a calf tear in the second Test against Pakistan, initially only as a batsman, while Mark Wood should make his first international appearance since the UAE tour, having recovered from ankle surgery. Alex Hales, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Moeen Ali and Chris Woakes have all been included after playing in the majority of Englands fixtures across this season.Yes, delighted, Morgan said of selection. I think its hugely important playing against Pakistan who are flying high at the minute, in Test cricket, but that rubs off on any side doing well. Also when teams tour places they dont come to that often they get better as they go along, so thats another challenge … With the way weve been performing wed like to think we are progressing nicely but we have a tough series ahead and a tough winter.

The problems that plague Andrew Luck are the same that hinder Carson Palmer and pretty much any other quarterback or team that was expected to light it up this year but hasnt. Cheap NFL Jerseys .As much as an ailing receiver, hurting running back or bad play calling, a patchwork offensive line can carve into a teams efficiency, confidence and, ultimately, its win total.Indianapolis and Arizona were among the teams expected to reach the playoffs this season, but are now dealing with losing records in large part because of uncertainty in their offensive lines. They have given up the second and third-most sacks this season, respectively. Minnesota (11), Carolina (11) and Miami (12) lead the league in number of linemen used this season; only the Dolphins are playing well heading into December.Looking back to last year, I think we got through most of the year with the same guys, said Palmer, whose current line includes two players who werent starters when the season began and a third lineman playing out of position. This year, its been the exact opposite. Its been different guys, different spots, different weeks.Each team has 53 roster spots, and once coaches and GMs move beyond their main playmakers, they look for multi-faceted players who can back up in some positions and play special teams. Because offensive linemen arent common on special teams, the number of spots available for them are often limited -- usually seven or eight on a roster.Injuries are inevitable. That leads to juggling, shifting positions and adding new players. How well the new pieces fit into whats designed as a finely tuned machine, with centers shouting out play calls to the line much the way the quarterback does to the entire offense, can dictate whether injuries equal big trouble or a minor setback.It seems like its a broken record every year, said Colts coach Chuck Pagano, whose team has allowed 38 sacks so far -- one more than all of last season -- en route to a 5-6 mark. Luckily we have a bunch of guys that have some position flexibility and can play multiple spots, but it affects you.Aware of the beating their quarterback was enduring, the Colts used their first-round draft pick this year on a center, Ryan Kelly. He started the first 11 games, but injuries piled up around him. The Colts have used six different line combinations and one player, rookie Joe Haeg, has started at three different spots.It works the other way, too.The Titans started seven different tackles in 2014, en route to a 2-14 record, all of which put them in position to draft Marcus Mariota in 2015.But it was moves the Titans made last offseason that helped put Mariota in the position hes in today -- a half-game out of first place with the leagues third-best rushing attack and just 18 sacks allowed after giving up a league-high 54 last year.Tennessee signed free agent center Ben Jones, used the No. 8 pick on tackle Jack Conklin and traded receiver Dorial Green-Beckham to Philadelphia for tackle Dennis Kelly. None of these moves made headlines the way Mariotas selection did in 2015.But the Titans depth on the offensive line has made a difference.Getting (Kelly) with that trade was as big a trade as we had this year, coach Mike Mularkey said.Heading into Sundays game against Miami, Ravens coach John Harbaugh was asked about the Dolphins shuffled offensive line -- three starters have missed all or part of the last two games -- and immediately reflected on his own teams problems.We were ... cobbling together an offensive line and guys were playing out of position. Its very challenging, Harbaugh said. The really great offensive line coaches prepare for that.The Ravens started the same offensive line for the first three games of the season and went 3-0. Injuries set in, and Baltimore lost four straight -- part of a stretch of eight straight games in which they started a different line combination. They head into Sundays game having won three of four, as the idea of not knowing who theyre going to line up next to has become less jarring.Its definitely easier to have someone youve been playing with because you build chemistry over a period of time, said Ronnie Stanley, the Ravens first-round pick this season, who missed four games earlier this season with a foot injury.And yet, sometimes chemistry isnt all its cracked up to be. The Bengals have started the same offensive line all 11 weeks this season. But Cincinnati has given up 32 sacks -- fourth most in the league -- and is on pace for its worst rushing attack since 2010. Last week against Baltimore, four of Andy Daltons final eight passes were batted down at the line and Cincinnati fell to 3-7-1.---AP Sports Writers Michael Marot in Indianapolis, Steven Wine in Miami, Teresa Walker in Nashville, Bob Baum in Phoenix, Joe Kay in Cincinnati and David Ginsburg in Baltimore contributed to this report.

PHILADELPHIA -- Adam Wainwright and Adam Morgan will be looking to snap slumps of varying degrees on Friday when the St. Air max Outlet . Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Phillies open a three-game series at Citizens Bank Park.Wainwright (9-7, 4.72 ERA), the Cardinals 34-year-old right-hander, matched the shortest start of his career in his last time out -- working just two innings in a 13-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs. The three-time All-Star allowed seven runs on six hits and walked three, and afterward called his outing embarrassing, according to Major League Baseballs official web site.Wainwright, who is winless in his last five outings, also surrendered six runs on nine hits over six innings in losing his previous start to Atlanta.Morgans struggles are much more pronounced. Philadelphias second-year left-hander is 1-7 with a 6.62 ERA, and hasnt won since beating the Braves for his lone victory on May 10. In the meantime, he has gone 0-7 with a 7.46 ERA over 12 starts, a drought interrupted by a stint at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in which he went 5-0.Morgan returned to the parent club last weekend but was forced to depart Sundays start against Colorado after three innings when he was hit on the elbow by a line drive off the bat of Nick Hundley. Morgan reported no ill effects.Morgan was saddled with a no-decision in his only start against St. Louis this year, allowing three runs on six hits over four innings. He is 1-0 with a 3.72 ERA in two career starts against the Cardinals.Wainwright, who is 6-2 with a 2.72 ERA in 13 career outings against Phillies, told reporters after the loss to the Cubs that he was feeling a little under the weather, but did not wish to use that as an excuse. He also denied that he was tipping his pitches, as was suspected in his previous outing.Today, the way I was tipping is that when they got in the batters box, they knew I was going to throw something in the middle of the plate, Wainwright said, according to MLB.com. You do that against a good team, and theyre going to hit it really hard.The Cardinals, who hold a one-game lead over Pittsburgh in the race for the National Leagues second wild-card berth, have won four in a row. The Phillies, who beat the Dodgers 5-4 on Thursday night to salvage the finale of a three-game series, have won four of six.Maikel Francos two-run homer off Dodgers reliever Grant Dayton in the seventh inning proved decisive.Fastball, right down the middle, said Franco, who jumped on a 1-1 offering. Put a good contact on it, nothing else. I just go try to put the ball in play, put good contact on it.It was Francos 11th game-winning RBI, which leads the Phillies and is tied for fourth in the National League. It was also his team-leading 19th go-ahead RBI.With all the swings and misses and expanding the strike zone, he comes up big an awful lot, manager Pete Mackanin said.

They reached the 100-point plateau for the fourth time in five games, bested the visiting Trail Blazers by 34 in the paint and scored 19 of the final 25 points in regulation.BALTIMORE -- Early Saturday morning, Shug McGaughey was walking back and forth in front of the stakes barn at Pimlico. The trainer of Orb said he had experienced a variety of emotions during the week, and those mixed feelings remained as the race drew near. "Im thrilled and excited to be in this position," he said. "I am also a bit nervous." As well he should be. With Orb, McGaughey became a Kentucky Derby winner for the first time. With his first career victory in the Preakness, the 62-year-old would keep alive his bid to win the Triple Crown -- a feat that hasnt been accomplished since Affirmed in 1978. Asked whether hes allowed himself to think about the enormity of his situation, McGaughey said, "I try not to, but I wouldnt be telling you the truth if I told you I hadnt. Ive been reminded about it quite a bit. Id like to get by today and get back to Belmont and give it a whirl." Regardless of how Orb fared Saturday, McGaughey would always have the memory of keeping his horse in Stall 40, reserved annually for the Kentucky Derby winner. "Its a thrill to have the Derby winner and to be able to come into that stall," McGaughey said. "Its got a lot of significance. The last time I was here was in 1989. I had the favourite (Easy Goer) but there was another horse in that stall. I wanted to be in that stall." ------ BAFFERT HOPEFUL: Five-time Preakness winner Bob Baffert revealed the secret to his success Saturday. "Ive brought some really good horses," he said. "If you bring the best horse, you usually win." Standing outside the stakes barn nearly 10 hours before the Preakness, Baffert acknowledged that his entrant, Govenor Charlie, didnt have the credentials of the competition in the nine-horse field. "Hes never run against this calibre of horses before, so its going to be a big step up for him," the Hall of Fame trainer said. "But he looks like hes up for it. Hes working well and looks happy." Govenor Charlie came in with only three career races on his ledger. He won twice, including the Grade 3 Sunland Derby on March 24. Whether that prepared the dark brown colt for the Preakness remained to be seen. "Were going to learn more about the horse today," Baffert said. "Hes a lightly raced horse but hes doing well. Its going to be a class check. Hes bred for it; well see what the pace is." ------ RETURN TO BALTIMORE: With three horses in thhe field, Hall of Fame trainer D. Cheap Air Max Sale. . Wayne Lukas didnt get much time to enjoy Baltimore, one of his favourite cities in the country. "I was talking to my girlfriend and said that its really unfair that Im not able to run you down to the (Inner) Harbor and let you see some of the sights and do some of the stuff that Baltimore has to offer," he said Saturday. "I said maybe when we dont have so much going on, or if I have only one (horse) in and we dont have to be so tied to the barn, if youll come back well try to do a little more." Standing in front of the corner stall that has become his usual spot at Pimlico for the Preakness, the 77-year-old Lukas hoped the work he put in this week would translate to success in the Preakness. "When you get to the last day like this, some years you say, Man, I wish I had another week. And other times you say, I wish we ran him last Saturday. I felt great about them a week ago," he said. "You hope everything has just fallen in place, but you also have to think about what could go wrong. You analyze that a little bit. Its so unpredictable. But if youre real comfortable as a trainer that youve done almost everything you can, then all you have to do is worry about if the rider is in the same zone with you." Toward that end, Lukas switched two jockeys for the Preakness. Mike Smith was to ride Will Take Charge, who finished eighth in the Kentucky Derby, and Julien Leparoux took over on long shot Titletown Five, who came in fourth in the Derby Trial Stakes. Gary Stevens will remain aboard Oxbow, who finished sixth in the Derby. ------ HISTORY LESSON? : In his bid to win the Preakness for the second year in a row, trainer Doug ONeill planned to review old tapes of the race with jockey Kevin Krigger. "I think its good for Kevin," said ONeill, who entered Goldencents this year after winning with Ill Have Another in 2012. "Probably he needs my input like a hole in the head, but I think its something where these tracks are all a little bit different. Here the turns are tighter; the stretch is a little bit shorter. Watching the past runnings of the Preakness can only be beneficial." Krigger was seeking to become the first African-American jockey to win the race since 1898. "You can never look at these old Preaknesses too many times," Krigger said. "We put our ideas together and end up on the same page, as we usually are."

Changes could still be made as a result of a suspension or injury. PITTSBURGH -- Make no mistake, Andrew McCutchen is happy to still be a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates.But the All-Star centerfielder, who spoke Saturday for the first time since the team openly tried to trade him during the recently completed winter meetings, was bothered by the recent trade talks.I do want to be here, but Id be lying if I didnt tell you that none of this didnt bother me, that my name was out there, McCutchen said. Were all human. To have my name to be thinking about possibly being traded, I mean of course it got to me because we all have those dreams.My dream is to be a Pirate my whole career and to win multiple World Series, and sometimes when your name is popped up, it kind of makes you think well, those dreams could be altered a little.McCutchen agreed to a six-year, $51.5 million contract before the 2012 season. McCutchen, who is signed for the 2017 season at $14 million, plus a club option for 18 at $14.75 million, hoped to at least be able to play out his deal when he initially signed.If you have a contract, it doesnt mean much nowadays because you can still be traded, McCutchen said. If you wouldve asked me in 2012, that I would be in this position, or my name being thrown up in trades, I wouldve been like no youre crazy, but the game has changed and things have evolved over time, so its not a surprise.Pittsburgh general manager Neal Huntington -- eyeing glaring needs in the starting rotation and with a potential plan for replacing McCutchen in place -- sent out feelers to other teams ahead of the winter meetings, but nothing came to fruition with Washington going elsewhere for a centerfielder after talks with the Pirates broke down.McCutchen followed it all on Twitter.Everybody was asking me things and I was like look I dont know any more than what you guys know, McCutchen said. I was just kind of on edge, seeing what was going to happen.McCutchen admits hes surprised to still be in Pittsburgh. He had a chance to clear the air with Huntington after the winter mmeetings. Cheap Jerseys Stitched. .I do understand he has a job, but I dont understand what he has to do, McCutchen said. I cant empathize with that, just like he cant empathize with what I could be going through. We had a good conversation and ended it on good terms.McCutchen said he hasnt been offered a new contract and isnt sure whether or not management will approach him about an extension. McCutchen said hes still open to a new contract with the team despite the tumultuous week, but isnt sure if that is going to happen.Ive always said that I want to be a Pirate and I want to retire a Pirate, McCutchen said. That hasnt changed just because my name is in on trades.There has been no player more pivotal to Pittsburghs turnaround than McCutchen, a former first-round pick who made his major league debut in 2009. He earned his first All-Star berth in 2011 and won the MVP in 2013, becoming the first Pirate to capture the award since Barry Bonds in 1992.McCutchen spent the last five seasons as a fixture in the middle of Pittsburghs lineup as the Pirates pulled themselves out of two decades of losing to reach the playoffs three straight years between 2013 and 2015.Last season marked the first significant bump in the road for McCutchen.He got off to one of his typical slow starts, but unlike previous years, he was unable to snap out of the funk. McCutchen hit a career-low .256 while setting a career-high with 173 strikeouts, as the Pirates sputtered to a 78-83 record, a distant third place in the NL Central behind the World Series champion Chicago Cubs.The 30-year-old McCutchen stressed repeatedly that injuries didnt affect his performance and said the same on Saturday as he vowed to have a bounce-back season in 2017.Youre going to have your off years, but its all about what you do and how you come back from that, McCutchen said. Im looking forward to this season. Im ready to go.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. Nike Air Vapormax Pas Cher . -- Florida coach Jim McElwain says the Southeastern Conference has overturned receiver Brandon Powells suspension for throwing a punch.Powell was ejected in the fourth quarter at Tennessee for seemingly swinging at safety Rashaan Gaulden. Replays showed Gaulden dramatically flopped as Powell turned in his direction. The official flagged Powell for unsportsmanlike conduct and kicked him out of the game.Under league rules, Powell also would have been suspended for the first half Saturday against Vanderbilt.But McElwain says it was reviewed and overturned: Weve received word that hell go and nothing from there.Powell is second on the team with 15 catches for 145 yards and two touchdowns this season.

Thousands of Southern California fans enveloped the Trojans to celebrate an improbable win secured by an interim coach, an inconsistent kicker and a thin defence that wouldnt break. DENVER -- Mike Montgomery was on a strict pitch count but did all he could to stretch it in his starting debut for the Chicago Cubs.Montgomery pitched four hitless inning before the low pitch count and a mistake ended his day two outs too soon, as the Cubs cruised to a 9-2 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.Kris Bryant launched a long homer and drove in four runs, and Ben Zobrist had three hits and also went deep for Chicago.Montgomery was solid in his first start since coming over in a trade with Seattle on July 20 but didnt stick around long enough to earn the decision. Manager Joe Maddon was cautious with the young left-hander and took him out after giving up a one-out homer in the fourth, the first and only hit he allowed.Montgomery threw just 60 pitches but had not started since July 17 with the Mariners. His first seven appearances with Chicago were out of the bullpen, so Maddon kept him on a strict pitch count.Its almost like spring training for him right now. Just stretching him out, Maddon said. I thought he was outstanding. Would I have loved to have left him out there? Absolutely.He walked two batters through four innings and got Ryan Raburn to start the fifth, but Nick Hundley got Colorados first hit off the lefty with a solo blast to left that made it 7-1.Maddon took him out after the homer and Trevor Cahill (3-3) pitched the final 4 2/3 innings for the win.As a competitor I wanted to stay in, Montgomery said. I was a little pissed but I understand the situation and the pitch count. Thats just how it goes. I felt good but I respect the decision.Miguel Montero had three hits and drove in three for the Cubs, who spoiled the major league debut of Rockies starter Jeff Hoffman.I felt very comfortable here, Hoffman said. I dont know why that was. I was really expecting to be nervous, to be jittery, all that stuff. For my first big league game, this was exactly what I was expecting. Air Max 95. Hoffman (0-1), a former first-round pick who was acquired a year ago as part of the deal that sent Troy Tulowitzki to Toronto, started off well but ran into trouble the second time through against the NL Central leaders.Bryant made it 7-0 in the fifth with his 31st homer, a three-run drive that went an estimated 469 feet to dead center.It was scoreless until the fourth, when Dexter Fowler led with a single, went to third on an errant pickoff attempt by Hoffman and came home on Bryants single.Anthony Rizzo followed with a single, Zobrists double made it 2-0 and Montero beat the shift with a two-run single to right.The three-run homer hurt, Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. The big one was that two-run single by Montero. We get an out there, were in good shape.Hoffman allowed seven runs -- six earned -- on seven hits in four-plus innings.The Cubs added a run in the eighth and another on Zobrists 14th homer in the ninth.TRAINERS ROOMRockies: CF Charlie Blackmon was not in the starting lineup for the second straight game because of a bruised right toe. Manager Walt Weiss said Blackmon originally hurt it colliding with Washington pitcher Gio Gonzalez on Tuesday. Weiss said he doesnt think its a long-term issue but as of now running in the outfield is tough for Blackmon.ROSTER MOVEThe Rockies optioned RHP Christian Bergman to Albuquerque in order to recall Hoffman from Triple-A. To make room for Hoffman on the 40-man roster, Colorado placed LHP Jason Gurka on waivers for the purpose of granting him his unconditional release. Gurka pitched nine games for Colorado last year.UP NEXTThe Cubs will send RHP Jason Hammel (13-5, 2.75) against his former team to face Rockies LHP Jorge De La Rosa (7-7, 5.29) in the series finale Sunday.

England Womens cricket captain Charlotte Edwards is relishing the upcoming World T20 in India after her side showed great resilience in the third ODI against South Africa. Wholesale Jerseys USA . England recovered from a disappointing loss in Centurion to clinch victory by five wickets in the final match of the three-game series on Sunday.Edwards is now looking forward to the three Twenty20 matches against South Africa - starting this week live on Sky - and is hopeful her team-mates can take their form into the shorter form of the game ahead of the Womens World T20 next month. It was a great comeback from the team after a disappointing loss in the second ODI and Im pleased that we are back to winning ways, Edwards told Sportswomen on Sky Sports News HQ.Its an exciting group to be around at the moment, the youngsters are really wanting to show what they can do and this is a really exciting form of the game to do that.We are looking forward to taking this kind of form in to the T20s and in to the T20 World Cup.Edwards also reserved a special word of praise for Heather Knight, Englands star player during the third ODI where she hit an unbeaten 67 to lead her side home in Johannesburg.   Heather Knight has been impressive in her new role in the middle order Heather has been outstanding on this trip so far and we know she has taken to her role in the middle order, she said.Thats one thing we need to remember, we have changed our order slightly and people have really responded to that which has been great.Dont miss South Africa Women taking on England Women in the second T20 from 11.25am on Friday, on Sky Sports 2.

The move also reunites with him with head coach Dallas Eakins from their time together with the American Hockey Leagues Toronto Marlies. It was interesting to see Aaron Smith, a player who often leads the haka, didnt do so against Ireland in Chicago.Smith looked like he was hiding in that team and he was almost apologetic about the way he was playing. Hes obviously been through a hell of a lot and, unfortunately, hes going to go through a bit more.Everything about his game, his cheekiness, his verbal in-your-face, his confidence; it wasnt there and we all know why. It reminded me of a Tiger Woods syndrome. You cant afford that in the highest level of sport. Youve got to go out and be you, ooze confidence, and have faith in the way you can play.There was a clear difference between the two half-backs when TJ Perenara came on. Hes in the form of his life at the moment.We need to identify that this title of worlds best halfback is only ever related to form, and the title goes to the player who has the form of the worlds best half-back. It is not a title you have for life.Irelands Conor Murray grabbed the title from everyone last weekend; his form was sublime, he was outstanding.But from the All Blacks point of view, Perenara is the better player, right here, right now. The All Blacks selectors are going to have to take that into account. Its changing times. Thats not to say form cant be recaptured but that comes ffrom confidence and rebuilding from where Smith has been.dddddddddddd.I can only imagine what he has been going through in the public arena. He didnt commit a crime but hes been treated worse than most criminals in the court of public opinion. His recovery will take time.I am really confident the loss is a great wake-up call for the All Blacks to make them realise they dont have the right to keep on going out and winning Test matches. Im sure they know this.They didnt turn up in Chicago, but next week they will. I remember Sir Graham Henry was once asked what would be the best thing for the All Blacks and he responded it would be to lose.Records aside, losing is a good thing in the greater scheme of things. It puts you back in your place, back in your box, so you can say, right, get back on track. Ive got no doubt that in the next three games the All Blacks are going to wipe the face of France, Italy and woe betide Ireland who, I dont think, will get within 40 points in Dublin.New Zealand will be hurting and there is nothing worse than an All Blacks team that is hurting. I could be proved wrong but it is a good readjustment for Steve Hansens side.

BEREA, Ohio -- Robert Griffin III has been cleared by doctors to play again this season. Puma By Rihanna Creeper Danmark . RG3 still needs Browns coach Hue Jacksons blessing.Griffin passed a final medical test on his injured left shoulder and can now take full contact, paving the way for the quarterback to play on Dec. 11 when the winless Browns return from a bye week against Cincinnati.Griffin hasnt played since the season opener -- his debut for Cleveland -- when he broke a bone in his shoulder while scrambling in the fourth quarter of a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.Beyond blessed to have an opportunity to get back on the field with my brothers, Griffin said Tuesday. I promise my teammates and coaches to give them everything I have as we work to finish the season strong.Its been a long wait for Griffin, who signed with the Browns hoping to revive his career. Instead, he got hurt again, adding credence to the argument that hes not durable and opening the Browns to criticism for passing on a chance to get a top QB in the draft.Griffin can change that narrative over Clevelands final four games, but Jackson isnt quite ready to turn his offense back over to the 26-year-old.Robert is cleared, and he is ready to go, and I will make a decision about which way we are going as we go through the week, Jackson said.Just because he is cleared does not mean we are just going to walk back out there and play. There is still practice and there are still things we need to do and see before I decide to stick him back out there.Despite Jacksons stance, it appears Griffin will be back behind center against the Bengals and in Clevelands other three games.The Browns (0-12) want to avoid becoming the second team in NFL history to go 0-16 and Griffin may give them the best chance to win.Jacksons other choices are rookie Cody Kessler, who is 0-8 as a starter this season and just returned from his second concussion, or 37-year-old Josh McCown, who has been pounded behind a revamped offensive line, which just lost starting right guard John Greco with a foot injury.Griffin, who recently returned to practice, was selected as the starter in training camp after the Browns signed him to a two-year, $15 million contract in March.Although he got hurt and then lost his job in Washington, the Browns viewed Griffin as possibly their long-term solution at quarterback. His injury in the opener delayed the teams evaluation process, but the Browns may have a four-game window to see if Griffin can be their future.I am always looking to see who is going to be on the team as we move forward every game we play, Jackson said, adding the bye came at a good time to give Griffin more time.We are still evaluating our team, too, as we go through it at this point where we are. So yeah, we are looking. If he plays quarterback, yeah, we are evaluating him to see if he can be the quarterback. No different than Cody, Josh or (QB) Kevin (Hogan). All those guys, if they play, they are being evaluated.Jackson said hell consider several factors before choosing a quarterback, including Griffins injury history.You have to throw everything in the pot and then make a decision, he said. But the guy has played, what, amounts to four quarters, not even a whole four quarters for this football team in a regular-season game? If we put him back out there, there will be a chance for him to go back out there and play, and if we dont, we dont.Game notes Jackson has given his players off until Monday, but before they left he reminded them to behave while theyre away. I am not going to put up with any foolishness when guys leave here, he said. To that end, the Browns invited former NBA star guard Chauncey Billups to speak before practice. Jackson said Billups delivered a positive message about perseverance.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Nike Air Max 2017 Dame .

"Jeff is a hard worker who was an important special-teams contributor for us last season," said Stamps GM John Hufnagel. BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Keeping a dynasty seems even more challenging than creating one. Just ask Hall of Fame car owner Rick Hendrick.The NASCAR titan has fielded 11 Sprint Cup champions over the past 21 years, won 242 Sprint Cup races and just two seasons ago had all four of his star drivers- Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne -- in the 16-team championship chase.These days, Johnson is Hendricks only surefire contender locked into the chase, although hes got others knocking on the door. Hendrick understands its a time of transition for his proud, powerful organization.You sign guys and you cant believe that Jimmie Johnson, or Dale or Jeff Gordon are 40 years old, Hendrick said. But time moves on.And brings change.Gordon retired last year, although he has driven the past four races for Earnhardt, who is recovering from a concussion that has put his playoffs in doubt. Chase Elliott, Gordons replacement, stands 12th in points and is a good bet to keep his spot in the chase. Kahne, at 17th, needs a victory to guarantee moving on.I think everybodys looking for that next superstar, Hendrick said. And if youre not willing to invest in the future, then youre going to be in a bind when the time comes.Hendrick took steps toward that last week, signing 18-year-old truck series leader William Byron to race Xfinity cars next season. In Hendricks eyes, Byron is that budding star wholl keep the organization chasing checkered flags for a long time.Byron raced trucks for Kyle Busch Motorsports and looked to have a future at Joe Gibbs Racing, the current power player in NASCAR. But with Busch, the defending Sprint Cup champion, Carl Edwards and Denny Hamlin all in their 30s (the fourth member is 44-year-old Matt Kenseth), there may not be room for advancement at JGR.David Wilson, president and general manager, Toyota Racing Development, USA, said Byron was a talent they hated to lose. I dont think we were anticipating the next step this soon, he said. I dont think William was anticipating it this soon.Dont fret for Toyota, which is developing several young drivers. Xfinity driver Erik Jones will advance to Sprint Cup with Toyota team Furniture Row Racing next year.Daniel Suarez, a 24-year-old JGR driver, was part of NASCAR Next and its Drive for Diversity program.. Nike Air Max 2017 Sort. He became the first Mexican-born driver to win a NASCAR race when he took the Xfinity race at Michigan two months.All, though, will have to wait their time. The JGR quartet -- think of the Golden State Warriors on wheels -- have won 10 of 23 races this season and are all locked into the playoffs for a championship run.Edwards, the groups newest member, said the level of cooperation between very competitive teams and drivers keeps all of them sharp.Yeah, were running really well, but its not one thing, its a very good foundation of teamwork and it all starts with Coach Gibbs, Edwards said. Its cool to be a part of it.Roush Fenway Racing, with 135 Sprint Cup wins and two championships, has also dealt with changes in recent years and the need to find young talent. Once a perennial title contender, the organization that featured 2003 title winner Kenseth and Edwards is crossing its fingers looking for one chase entry.Former Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne, 25, stands 15th in points, but would get knocked out if race winners Tony Stewart and Chris Buescher both maintain their spots inside the top 30 in points.Ricky Stenhouse Jr., the 28-year-old whos 19th in points, was second Sunday to Kevin Harvick at Bristol Motor Speedway, the highest finish for a Roush Fenway driver this season. Stenhouse said although no one at RFR is satisfied with this years results, he thinks strides have been made in returning to the top.We passed some cars that were running (well) and leading laps throughout the race, Stenhouse said.Buescher, 25, was last years Xfinity champion and is on an extended run in Front Rows affiliation with Roush Fenway. His win at Pocono last month put him in playoff position and he moved up to No. 30 -- the required placing to make the Chase -- with his fifth place at Bristol. A few more strong showings at Michigan, Darlington and Richmond the next few weeks and Buescher will be racing for a title in his first full Sprint Cup season.From the Ford camp side, we know weve got a little bit of work to do yet, and we all know whos been dominant at all these tracks this year, Buescher said. And were working to get ahead of that group.
