They had two chances on Saturday night, but the Winnipeg Goldeyes couldnt find a
way to get a victory.
Wholesale Cheap Jerseys . After holding their
opponent scoreless through the first four innings, the Goldeyes allowed the
Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks to score in multiples the rest of the way in a 9-1,
seven inning loss in Game 1 of a doubleheader. Game 2 went better for the
Goldeyes, who came back and threatened in the seventh. They were able to put the
game-tying run on base, but were unable to cash him in and fell in a 4-3 final.
"We look flat. Were not getting on base and running bases, doing things that
create excitement," said Goldeyes manager Rick Forney. "We have a young
offensive team and two-and-a-half days away from the field and their routines
are too much." In the first game, Casey Haerther gave Winnipeg an early lead
with a solo home run to the opposite field. However, a trio of two-out hits in
the fifth would prove to be the difference for the RedHawks. Zach Penprase tied
it with an RBI double off the left-centerfield wall then the next two batters
each collected run-scoring hits to give Fargo-Moorhead the 3-1 lead.
Fargo-Moorhead added to the lead in the next inning. With two outs, Nate Samson
made a costly error on a groundout that allowed the RedHawks to load the bases.
Penprase followed that with a sharp two-run single into center, putting the
Goldeyes in a four run hole with six outs left, a tally they could not overcome.
Taylor Stanton picked up the win for the RedHawks to move to 2-1. He threw a
seven inning complete game, allowing only one run on four hits and striking out
five. Matt Rusch worked five innings but got tagged with his first loss of the
season. He allowed three runs on six hits while striking out six. Haerther,
responsible for Winnipegs lone run in the game, also pitched 1/3 of an inning
for the Goldeyes and got the lone batter he faced to fly out. Unlike the first
game, the RedHawks got on the board first in the second contest. They grabbed a
3-0 lead in the second inning thanks in part to four straight hits through the
right side of the infield. A leadoff home run by Ronnie Bourquin in the fourth
made it 4-0. The Goldeyes cut the lead in half in their turn in the fourth. Josh
Mazzola hit a solo home run to dead center, his third of the season, to
highlight the two-run inning. The home run extended Mazzolas hitting streak to
10 games, the best by a Goldeyes player this season. In the ninth, the Goldeyes
put their first two men on base after back-to-back walks from Chase Johnson.
Samson attempted to move the runners over 90 feet, but popped up the sacrifice
attempt. The next batter, Fehlandt Lentini, hit what looked to be a potential
double play ball, but the throw to first was off the mark. As a result, a run
scored and Lentini stood at second ,but Nick Liles ended the threat and ballgame
with a swinging strikeout. Alex Capaul took the loss to fall to 1-2. Alex
Caldera went five innings for his third win of the season while despite a rocky
seventh, Johnson earned his third save. Over the two games on Saturday, the
Goldeyes were outhit by the RedHawks, 19-8. "We are not having quality at-bats
or stringing them back-to-back, so its hard to sustain any quality offence,"
said Rick Forney. The Goldeyes and RedHawks finish their three game series
tomorrow afternoon at Shaw Park. First pitch is set for 1:30 p.m. Goldeyes
lefthander Mark Hardy will take to the mound looking for his fourth consecutive
victory tomorrow.

http://www.cheapjerseysoff.org/ . Instead of
dwelling on the negative, Oates focused on what was good about the clubs recent
play. It worked.As Jurgen Klopp prepares to take Liverpool to Wembley for
Sundays Capital One Cup final against Manchester City, he sat down with Sky
Sports to discuss fan expectations, cup finals, why hes not Santa Claus and his
own take on his first five months at Anfield... Such is Jurgen Klopps charisma,
you sense he could get his message across with only glares, glances, screams and
smiles. But his English is impressive too. And yet, just occasionally, even hes
reminded that this is not his native tongue.There was the time at his opening
press conference when he spoke of delivering titles. In Germany, the word title
and trophy are interchangeable. He was not promising the Premier League but
rather the sort of trips that will take Liverpool to Wembley on Sunday. Another
example came earlier in this competition when, after the semi-final victory over
Stoke, Klopp told Sky Sports that Liverpool will win the cup regardless of their
opponent in the final. Sometimes I dont use the words will and want in the right
way, he explains.The German word will is the English word want, so thats a
little bit of the problem. Of course, I am not sure that we will win this but we
want to, for sure. Thats the only reason you are part of a competition like
this.Liverpool havent been part of these occasions enough. While its only four
years since the club won the Capital One Cup under Kenny Dalglish, Klopp is
still able to call it a long time without fear of contradiction. Expectations
are always there at Liverpool.Raising those expectations can be a delicate
balancing act. Roy Hodgson paid the price for dampening them, while Brendan
Rodgers brought hope before crushing disappointment. Klopp feels like the man to
unleash them, but he too acknowledges the scale of the task. Aguero v Sturridge
Could this be the key battle in the Capital One Cup final on Sunday? The whole
situation is a challenge, he says. Liverpool is a club with a big, big, big
history and all the clubs in the world have a big history if the present is not
too successful. If you have never had success then nobody knows how it is but in
Liverpool everybody knows how it was. Thats part of the problem.There is a lot
of pressure on the situation. Thats normal. The challenge is to stay cool enough
to handle the pressure in the moment so that you can succeed in the future. It
needs time, nobody wants to hear it but thats the truth, if you want to have
success in the future you have to be ready to work now. Thats the job.There are
many reasons why Rodgers lost that job. But for all the transfer follies, a
final-day thrashing at Stoke, the loss of key players and Premier League
matches, for Liverpool fans returning to Wembley, its memories of an FA Cup
semi-final that will flood back on Sunday.The sight of a disjointed team
tactically outwitted by Tim Sherwoods Aston Villa ended Rodgers hopes of
delivering silverware and crystallised the situation at Anfield. If that brings
bad memories, Klopps own return to Wembley sparks mixed emotions. Jurgen Klopps
previous Wembley experience ended in Champions League defeat The 2013 Champions
League final between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich couldve been his
crowning glory. But Arjen Robbens late goal denied his side. It was two things,
one of the best days in my life and one of the worst days in my life, he
admits.Thats how it is if you go to a final and cant win it. The qualification
for the final was a great journey and to lose the final is not the best thing,
of course. But its a great stadium so it was not because of the stadium.
Everything is okay with me and Wembley.Although Klopp won the double with
Dortmund in 2012, cup finals havent been particularly kind to the 48-year-old
German. He still recalls Mats Hummels being denied a second-half goal that would
have given his side the lead over Bayern in the 2014 cup final.It was a goal and
everybody saw afterwards that it was a goal at a very important moment and it
would have decided the game, he recalls. But the referee disallowed it and then
they make the goal so you lose the final.Even his final match as Dortmund boss
failed to provide the perfect ending - beaten 3-1 by Wolfsburg. So any empathy
with his Manchester City counterpart Manuel Pellegrini, a man looking to bow out
with a trophy, comes with a caveat. I lost my last final with my former club so
its not a guarantee, he says.Just because you want to give a present doesnt mean
you can give a present. I have maximum respect for the work Manuel did but we
are not Santa Claus, they have a few other opportunities and if they want they
can take one of these. I have maximum respect for the work Manuel did but we are
not Santa Claus. Jurgen Klopp on why there will be no presents for Man City
Klopp gives the impressiion that he fancies his chances against Pellegrini and
its easy to imagine why after that 4-1 away win in November.
Cheap NFL
Jerseys. Liverpool overwhelmed City that day with an energy that
brought the worst out in their hosts. They seemed sluggish by comparison.It was
really good, says Klopp. It was one of our best games, for sure, but it was
necessary against Man City because you cant play at 60, 70, 80 or 90 per cent,
you have to bring your best on the pitch. Thats what we did in this game.Usually
you use the last two or three games before to analyse but in this case when you
have already played against each other you use that game too. We will do the
same but its different. More important is the moment. That was long ago. Simon
Mignolet believes winning the League Cup this weekend could have a similar
effect on Liverpool as it did on Chelsea at the start of Jose Mourinhos reign Of
course, in that time the style of Man City didnt change, they break the rhythm
all the time, they play really cool and slow until they speed up and they
accelerate and they have outstanding individual quality.You have to try to give
them as many questions as possible in the game, so they cannot do what they want
to do, whats easy for them, whats their plan. So we will be prepared, no doubt
about this, and we have to show our best performance. Man City 1 Liverpool 4
Will Liverpool win again? Five clues from the last clash. Those performance
levels have fluctuated more than he would have liked since arriving to much
excitement in October. So whats Klopps verdict so far? Not great, he says. It
could have been better, it could have been worse. But we feel in a good way,
thats the truth.We know about all our problems. We know about all our good
things that we have done until now. Of course, at the end we can say it is not
enough points, thats how it is, but there are always reasons for this, thats all
we can say.What I recognised since Ive been here, every one of the players is
obviously keen to win titles, to win cups - its not possible for us this year in
the league to win something so we have to be fully concentrated in this
tournament. We have to handle the pressure.If you want something with all you
have, it sometimes makes the pressure too big. Football is a game and you have
to act like youre in a game, you have to gamble, you have to be cheeky, enjoy
the game, if you only feel pressure then you cannot play your best football.How
cheeky hell be on Sunday remains to be seen. There wont be a repeat of the
infamous 1996 FA Cup final - I heard about this, one time in the past there was
one Liverpool squad who came in white suits - but his squad will be suited up.
And they will be ready.Its a final so its not important how good you are
usually, it is only important how good you are in this game so its a big chance
for us. Its a chance and thats all I need. You should not waste opportunities of
winning titles and cups and Im ready for winning something. You should not waste
opportunities of winning titles and cups and Im ready for winning something.
Jurgen Klopp on the search for silverware this Sunday Im not the guy to sit here
and say for sure, we will win it because I know football. [But] for all the
effort of our supporters - the time, money and kilometres - they put in to go to
the games, it would be really nice if we could celebrate this big thing
together.And in the perfect setting? The name is a really good sound. Wembley,
Klopp adds, appearing fascinated by the very word as it tumbles from his lips.
Going there is one of the best things you can do in life - sports life - and one
time is not enough.Im there for a second time… hopefully with a better ending.
