MIAMI -- Rich Hills lingering blister made Dave Roberts sick on Saturday night. Vince Biegel Youth Jersey .Roberts made the tough decision to pull Hill after seven perfect innings in the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0 victory over the Miami Marlins.Hill (12-3) had thrown 89 pitches and struck out nine when Roberts replaced the 35-year-old left-hander with Joe Blanton at the start of the eighth.I feel sick to my stomach, said Roberts, trying to lead Los Angeles to the NL West title in his first year as Dodgers manager. Rich had an opportunity of a lifetime. You take the personal aside. As a manager you are taking a lot of information.We have been dealing with Richies blister and that caused him to miss a lot of time this season.Hill didnt pitch in the majors between May 29 and July 2 because of a strained left groin and between July 17 and Aug. 24 because of a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand. He has pitched 19 scoreless innings since joining the Dodgers after an Aug. 1 trade with Oakland.Hill felt he could have continued pitching.Obviously, I didnt want to come out of the game, Hill said. But I think there is a bigger picture here and we all know what it is. Dave was in a very difficult position. You look at it and move on. Thats all you can do.Blanton struck out Christian Yelich and retired Marcell Ozuna a groundout before Jeff Francoeur singled to left. Grant Dayton gave up Dee Gordons two-out infield hit in the ninth that put two on and Kenley Jansen retired Martin Prado on a groundout to complete the two-hitter.In 11 years in the big leagues Ive never had a no-hitter against my team, Francoeur said. I was praying to God this wasnt the first time tonight. Luckily, we were able to come through with two hits.Hill has just three complete games in 91 big league starts over 12 seasons. On April 8, Roberts removed Ross Stripling with a no-hit bid after 7 1/3 innings and 100 pitches in a game the Dodgers lost to San Francisco 3-2 in 10 innings.To go 89 pitches, weighing the risks versus the opportunity and talking to the training staff and getting their advice and weighing it all up and what is right for Rich and the Dodgers, this is the decision I made, Roberts said.Los Angeles maintained its four-game lead in the division over second-place San Francisco, which won 11-3 at Arizona.There has never been a combined perfect game. In what is considered to be an unofficial perfect game, Babe Ruth of the Boston Red Sox walked the Washington Senators Ray Morgan leading off on June 23, 1917 and Ruth was ejected. Ernie Shore relieved, Morgan was caught stealing and Shore retired the remaining 26 batters.This is probably the worst Ive felt after a win, Roberts said.Dodgers left fielder Yasiel Puig, brought back from the minors on Sept. 2, made an outstanding diving catch for the final out of the seventh. Prado hit a drive to deep left-center and Puig sprinted and as he approached the warning track dived toward the wall to make the catch.Joc Pederson made a sliding and diving catch on a drive to center by Ozuna in the second.That was an incredible play and when you see a no-hitter or perfect game, you never know whats going to happen, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said.Pederson connected in the fifth and seventh innings, and Corey Seager and Justin Turner hit consecutive homers in the sixth, with Seager connecting for a two-run drive.Pedersons first homer of the night went into the upper deck in right field.Tom Koehler (9-11) allowed four runs and six hits in five plus innings and Brian Ellington gave up Ellingtons second homer, Pedersons 22nd this season. Koehler is 0-3 in his last five starts and has not won since Aug. 9.CLOSE CALLFor the second consecutive night, a foul ball hit the plate umpire. Tony Randazzo absorbed the shot after Josh Reddicks foul swing bounced off Miami catcher Jeff Mathis mitt and struck Randazzos mask in the second inning. Temporarily dazed, Randazzo stayed in the game. On Friday, Brian Knight was hit in the mask area with a foul ball and left the game in the fifth. Chris Guccione replaced Knight on Saturday.ETHIER RETURNDodgers outfielder Andre Ethier pinch-hit in the ninth and grounded out to first in his season debut. Ethier broke his leg during spring training.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: Pitchers Wei-Yin Chen and Bryan Morris are to throw simulated games Sunday in attempts to determine if they will return during the final three weeks of the season. Chen has been sidelined since July 24 because of left elbow inflammation. Morris has missed the last three months because of a herniated lumbar disk in his back.UP NEXTRHP Kenta Maeda (14-8) starts Sundays series finale for the Dodgers and RHP Jose Urena (3-6) for the Marlins.---This version corrects to unofficial perfect game on June 23, 1917. Vince Biegel Packers Jersey . It is a cliché dragged out by fans and pundits regularly when discussions take place around which teams are better than others. Jamaal Williams Jersey .com) - The Calgary Flames aim to bounce back from their first regulation home loss of the campaign on Friday night when they host a Detroit Red Wings club that they swept in three meetings a season ago. http:///...dams-Packers-Jersey/ .com) - The Montreal Canadiens will try to halt their longest losing streak of the season when they host the struggling New York Islanders in tonights clash at the Bell Centre. The season is over for Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen, who was placed on season-ending injured reserve after hurting a knee against the Chiefs. Its a big blow to open the season for fantasy football, but those who played Allen need to move on by attacking the waiver wire.There are plenty of solid options at wide receiver (and elsewhere) this week.---JOE FLACCO (QB, Ravens)If you like to stream quarterbacks or worry about Russell Wilson potentially missing the next game with an ankle injury, Flacco is a reasonable option. He went 23 of 34 for 258 yards with a touchdown in a win over the Bills. Flacco faces the Browns, who have an awful defense and allowed Eagles rookie Carson Wentz to throw for 278 yards and two touchdowns.---TEVIN COLEMAN (RB, Falcons)Coleman played four less snaps than Devonta Freeman and Coleman had eight carries for 22 yards and caught five passes for 95 yards on six targets. The coaches have already said both backs will be used, and Atlanta may play the hot hand.---TRAVARIS CADET (RB, Saints)This recommendation is mainly for point-per-reception leagues, as Cadet had seven targets while playing 25 snaps, compared with 29 for Mark Ingram. Cadet had three catches for 14 yards with a score. C.J. Spiller was a healthy scratch.---WILL FULLER (WR, Texans)The Texans rookie started his career in a big way, catching five passes for 107 yards with a touchdown. He dropped a potential touchdown and his hands are shaky, but he has the speed to consistently get by defensive backs. Fuller had 11 targets to lead the team.---MOHAMED SANU (WR, Falcons)Check on the status of Sanu before making this add as Sanu, who tied for the team lead with eight targets, was limping at the end of the opening game. Sanu is the No. 2 receiver opposite Julio Jones and caught five passes for 80 yards with a touchdown in his Atlanta debut.---MIKE WALLACE (WR, Ravens)Wallace has burned fantasy players the last few seasons. Part of it was playing with a quarterback that lacked the ability to throw deep. Now, Wallace has someone who can with Joe Flacco. Wallace, who had six targetts, caught three passes for 91 yards, including a 66-yard TD in Week 1. Josh Jones Womens Jersey. He played the second most snaps at receiver behind Steve Smith.---PHILLIP DORSETT (WR, Colts)Some fantasy players might shy away from Dorsett since hes the third receiver in the offense, but the Colts defense is awful, forcing the offense to pass a lot and likely play sets with three wide receivers. Dorsett had four catches for 94 yards on six targets.---ELI ROGERS (WR, Steelers)Rogers caught six of seven targets for 59 yards with a touchdown in his NFL debut Monday night and will be a frequent target playing in the slot.---TAJAE SHARPE (WR, Titans)The rookie didnt get much recognition until late in the preseason, so he could still be available. Sharpe had 11 targets, catching seven passes for 76 yards.---TYRELL WILLIAMS (WR, Chargers)With Keenan Allen out for the season, Williams will get more snaps and targets. He is 6-foot-4, athletic and has a big catch radius. Williams caught two passes for 71 yards on five targets in Week 1.---JEREMY KERLEY (WR, 49ers)The slot role can be valuable in the Chip Kelly offense, especially a team that will play from behind often. Kerley had seven catches for 61 yards on 11 targets in Week 1.---VIRGIL GREEN (TE, Broncos)Green has been primarily a blocking tight end for several years with Denver. Now, he is the starting tight end and going to get targets. He had four catches for 28 yards in Week 1, but was wide open in the end zone for a touchdown that was deflected by a defender. Green is athletic and finally getting his chance.---DENNIS PITTA (TE, Ravens)Many thought Pitta wouldnt return after a severe hip injury, but he was the No. 1 tight end on Sunday and played 56 of 68 snaps. Joe Flacco loves Pitta, who caught three passes for 39 yards. Pitta is an option especially if youre in search of a replacement for Zach Ertz.---This column was provided to The Associated Press by the Fantasy Sports Network, http://FNTSY.com .
