St. Drew Doughty Jersey . Petersburg, FL (Sports Network) - Omar Vizquel knocked in his first two runs of the season and collected two hits, as the Chicago White Sox avoided a four-game sweep with a 9-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays. Juan Pierre touched home three times while Paul Konerko had three hits and two RBI for the White Sox, who snapped a seven-game losing streak and notched the first win of their 11-game road trip (1-3). Carlos Quentin and A.J. Pierzynski also had two RBI apiece in the win. Gavin Floyd (2-1) had a solid outing for the White Sox, allowing two runs on seven hits and striking out seven. I felt like I had to dig deep, especially when guys were on, Floyd said. Just try to make pitches, get ahead, and make them put it in play. Sam Fuld knocked in the only two runs for the Rays, who dipped back under the .500 mark. They had improved to 9-9 after winning the first three games against Chicago. Despite the loss, the Rays have turned it on lately, going 8-2 their last 10 games to make up for a 1-8 start that included losses in their first six. Tampa Bay starter Jeff Niemann (0-3) was roughed up for six runs -- five earned -- on six hits and two walks in 4 2/3 frames. Hes still not back to where we need him to be, but I think hes on the verge, said Rays manager Joe Madden. Hes not far off, in spite of what you may think. Some of the pitches were up, the breaking ball wasnt as sharp as usual. But then again, he made some really good pitches, too. Pierre laid down a bunt to start off the game and reached all the way to third after a throwing error by third baseman Felipe Lopez during the play. Vizquels ground out then sent Pierre scurrying home for the games first run. Pierre continued to play small ball in the third inning, which saw four White Sox runners cross home. The speedy leadoff hitter sneaked in a bunt single and then stole second before scoring on Omar Vizquels double off the right field fence. Quentin was then hit by a pitch and Konerko singled to score Vizquel. Adam Dunn kept the inning going with a single to right to plate Quentin, and two batters later, Pierzynskis sacrifice fly to center sent Konerko home for a 5-0 lead. The Rays got two on the board in the fourth on Fulds two-out single that plated Casey Kotchman and John Jaso. But Chicago got a run back on Pierzynskis bloop, RBI single in the fifth for a 6-2 edge. The White Sox extended the margin in the sixth, 8-2, as Mark Teahen and Pierre both scored on Quentins double to deep center. Konerko also added an RBI single in the eighth to make up the final score. GAME NOTES:The White Sox will continue its long road trip in Detroit on Friday...The Rays finish an eight-game home stand with 6-2 record and will travel to Toronto on Friday...The Rays have joined the 1991 Seattle Mariners as the only teams since 1900 to reach .500 in April after opening the season with six losses...Tampa lost three of four in Chicago earlier in the year...The White Sox were 6-for-17 with runners in scoring position while the Rays left eight runners on base.

Troy Tulowitzki had two RBI and scored twice while Todd Helton went 2-for-3 with two runs scored for the Rockies, who have won two of their last three games. Jorge De La Rosa started on the mound but lasted just five innings as he gave up six runs -- three earned -- on three hits with three walks and three strikeouts. Glendon Rusch (2-0) got the win after throwing a perfect sixth inning. Scott Hairston went 3-for-4 with a three-run homer and four RBI for the Padres, who have dropped their last six games. Kevin Correia started on the mound but was pulled with one out in the fourth as he gave up five runs on eight hits with two walks and four strikeouts. Edwin Moreno (1-3) was saddled with the loss for getting charged with three runs on one hit with three walks in 1 1/3 innings. Trailing by a run in the seventh, the Rockies took the lead on one swing of the bat. Helton led off with a double and walks to Garrett Atkins and Tulowitzki loaded the bases. Cla Meredith then took the mound and on a 2-2 pitch, Iannetta blasted the ball into the left field stands for a 9-6 lead.

Huston Street then pitched a perfect ninth to pick up his third save of the season. Colorado got on the board in the second as Tulowitzki hit an RBI double and Clint Barmes later grounded into a run-scoring double play to give the team a 2-0 lead. An RBI single from Atkins and a sacrifice fly from Tulowitzki in the third inning helped the Rockies make it a 4-0 game. San Diego got into the game in the third to cut into the Rockies lead. With men on first and second, Correia laid down a bunt that De La Rosa fielded, but he threw it past the first baseman and Henry Blanco came around to score. David Eckstein then hit a grounder to third and Luis Rodriguez was caught in a rundown between third and home and was eventually tagged out with the runners taking second and third. Brian Giles then hit into a run-scoring ground out and Hairston hit an RBI single to make it a 4-3 game. Colorado got a run back in the fourth as Ryan Spilborghs sacrifice fly plated Barmes to make it a 5-3 contest. San Diego, though, took the lead in the fifth on a two-out, three-run home run from Hairston for a 6-5 advantage. Game Notes Colorado has won five of the last six games against San Diego...The Padres had just four hits in the game...The Padres have dropped nine of their last 10 overall...Attendance was 14,717.

DENVER -- Former heavyweight contender Ron Lyle, who fought Muhammad Ali for the title in 1975 and later battled George Foreman, has died in Denver at age 70. Aaron Hernandez Jersey . Lyle died Saturday from complications from a sudden stomach ailment, said Ron McKinney, a Salvation Army official in Denver. Details werent immediately available. McKinney, a family friend who hired Lyle to start the charitys boxing program in 2002, said Lyle retired from the program last December but continued to work out at the gym every day "I just saw him yesterday (Friday)," McKinney said. "You looked at him and he looked like he was ready to step into the ring. Shake hands with him, and its like shaking a piece of steel." The gym, called Red Shield Cox-Lyle Boxing, would show replays of Lyles fights every Friday night as inspiration for some of the programs 100 students, McKinney said. Lyle lost to both Ali and Foreman in the mid-1970s. After his career in boxing, Lyle lived in Las Vegas where he trained young boxers and worked as a security guard. He made a brief comeback in 1995 at age 54 and hoped to fight Foreman again in a fight jokingly billed as "Old and Older." Lyle hoped for a better result than the 1976 match in which he took a beating from Foreman. He also toyed with the idea of fighting Mike Tyson but neither fight materialized. Scott Stevens Jersey .

The two heated rivals will be going toe-to-toe in Sundays regular-season finale with a postseason berth on the line, with the winner claiming an NFC East championship and a No. 4 seed in the upcoming conference tournament and the loser having a campaign that had fostered high expectations come to a swift and bitter end. You can see the pivotal game on TSN tonight beginning at 8:15pm et/5:15pm pt. "We are both fighting for the same thing," said Giants safety Antrel Rolle. "Our backs are against the wall and the best man continues and the loser goes home. That is the way both teams are going to approach this game." This elimination bout that will be held in front of a standalone primetime national audience was set up by a crucial victory by the Giants this past weekend, with Big Blues 29-14 triumph over the crosstown inhabitant New York Jets last Saturday ensuring a winner-take-all clash between the teams, both of whom currently sport identical 8-7 records. The Giants win also prevented the Cowboys, who had entered Week 16 with a one- game edge atop the NFC East, from clinching the division. That prompted Dallas head coach Jason Garrett to take a conservative approach to his teams Christmas Eve showdown with Philadelphia, with the Cowboys resting several players in an inconsequential 20-7 loss to the Eagles. Dallas still didnt come out of the contest unscathed, however. Quarterback Tony Romo injured his right throwing hand on the Cowboys first series after making contact with Philadelphia defensive end Jason Babin, placing the standout triggermans status for this all-important matchup in some question. Romo suffered only a bruise as a result of the incident, and was able to participate in this weeks practice sessions in a limited capacity. Wayne Gretzky Jersey. Barring any setbacks, hes fully expected to be under center for Sundays tilt. "I just think everything is coming together like we thought," Romo said on Thursday. "Each day is getting a little better. Well be good to go this weekend." Running back Felix Jones, whos been hampered by a hamstring strain that also reduced his availability against the Eagles, is also probable to play for Dallas, while the Giants plan to have high-impact pass rusher Osi Umenyiora back in the lineup after sitting out the last four weeks with a sprained ankle. Romos anticipated presence ensures an intriguing battle between two of the NFCs premier signal-callers, both of whom displayed their talents when the teams squared off at Cowboys Stadium less than a month ago. Romo threw for 321 yards and a season-high four scores in that tilt, but the Giants ended up with a thrilling 37-34 decision when Eli Manning orchestrated a pair of touchdown drives in the final 3 1/2 minutes to rally New York from a 12-point deficit. Manning, who edged out Romo for the final quarterback spot in the recently-announced NFC Pro Bowl squad, finished the night with 400 passing yards and a pair of touchdowns with one interception. The Giants prevailed in spite of surrendering 444 total yards to the Cowboys, but their somewhat-maligned defense is coming off one of its best outings of the season last Saturday. The unit came up with five sacks of Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez and forced three second-half turnovers, while also registering a safety. The winner of Sundays game will host either Detroit or Atlanta in the Wild Card Round of the NFC Playoffs the following weekend. ' ' '

Tweet CHICAGO -- Those wondering about the health of Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane will probably have to wait until Tuesday for an update about the lower-body injury he suffered early in Sundays game against Calgary. Ray Whitney Jersey . The Blackhawks were off on Monday and the organization didnt put out an official health status update. The Hawks did announce they sent rookie forward Jeremy Morin back to Rockford of the American Hockey League for the second time this season, in what might be a salary cap-related move. Morin, who was acquired from Atlanta in a trade that sent Dustin Byfuglien and three others to the Thrashers, has played in five games with Chicago and has a plus-2 rating to go with six shots on goal. Morin, 19, led the IceHogs with 6 goals at the time of his most recent call-up last week. Morin or others from Rockford might get recalled prior to Wednesdays game against Dallas, as the Hawks map out a plan to deal with Kanes injury along with injuries to Marian Hossa and Fernando Pisani. When asked on Sunday night if Kanes injury would be a matter of weeks instead of days, Hawks coach Joel Quenneville declined to specify, saying the injury "wasnt serious," but would require Kane to be out for "a little bit." The Hawks will get back to work with a practice on Tuesday, when Quenneville is expected to give a clearer picture of how long Kane will be out. Kane, the No.1 pick in the 2007 Entry Draft, is currently Chicagos second-leading scorer with 11 goals and 27 points. Nicklas Backstrom Jersey .

After two matches for each team, the four-nation event, co-hosted by Qinhuangdao and Shenyang, both the cities with the soccer venues for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, came close to the end as China topped the table on six points and Italy followed on four. Each team has one match left back to Qinhuangdao on Saturday before the best two setting up the final against each other on Tuesday in Shenyang, while the other two settling for a third place. Wednesdays victory marked a revenge from the hosts after Mexico drew China 1-1 in the last and crucial group match to stop the 1999 World Cup runners-up from qualifying for the knockout stage of the Athens Olympic Games soccer tournament in 2004. Also it boosted a lot for the reviving Chinese side, who are trying to harvest some confidence after a decade in losing jinx while preparing for the upcoming World Cup this September to be held in five cities of China. Han Duan, whose double helped the hosts whitewash Thailand 4-0 on Sunday in Qinhuangdao, scored the only goal for China after veteran striker Zhang Ouyings second attempt on goal was again bounced back by Mexican defenders after seven minutes into the second half. The hosts took control of the match right into it with a well-organized midfield, while the 31-year-old Zhang Ouying, who rejoined the Chinese national squad after having retired from soccer in 2005, lingering on the right wing to seek for scoring opportunities and Han Duan running tirelessly to cover full stretch in front. Dale Hunter Jersey. However, the first half ended up on 0-0 with China making seven shots against Mexicos two, each having one on goal, two corner kicks against the rivals none, but 12 fouls while only three from the South Americans after a full 45-minutes plus two minutes injury stoppage time. The situation repeated itself in the second half, when Chinese players created a lot of scoring opportunities but declined to convert them into goals, until the hosts attacking duo finally enhanced their chances in front of the mouth. In the other game played Wednesday evening, Italy finally showed their real teeth after being held by Mexico three days ago in Qinhuangdao, breezing past Asian underdogs Thailand 5-0 to keep their hope alive of making the final. The Azzurri, ranked 13th in FIFAs world standings, just two positions behind the Chinese, opened scoring in the 19th minute with captain Patrizia Panico, 32, was picked by the ball leaked out of the hand of Thailands goalie Waraporn Boonsing who tried to save an attack in earlier seconds but ran too far from the mouth. Midfield Tatiana Zorri added the second on penalty for Italy just three minutes into the second half, before Panico improved herself to a double scoring in the 75th minute after a superb solo run. Its far from the end of Italys attacking show. Substitute Silvia Fuselli, who was brought in by head coach Pietro Ghedin on 59 minute to take the place of Melania Gabbiadini, broke through on goal from right of the box after being picked out by a lovely cross ball from the other side. Just a minute later, Sukunya Peangthems own goal awarded Italy a 5-0 victory. ' ' '

Tweet MONTREAL -- For the previous two seasons, veteran Hal Gill teamed with a relative unknown to form the top defensive paring for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Ray Whitney Jersey . Rob Scuderi became quite well known for his work with Gill during the course of two runs to the Stanley Cup Final and earned a four-year contract with the Los Angeles Kings this past summer. Gill also changed teams, joining the Montreal Canadiens, and his new defense partner, Josh Gorges, quickly is becoming a Scuderi-esque breakout player in this postseason for his work at his own end of the ice. "Hes the kind of guy who does whatever you need to get done. If you say, Go get under a guys skin, hell go do it. If you say, Block a shot, hell block it with his head if necessary. It doesnt matter. Hes a guy who gets things done and it is nice to play with a guy like that." -- Hal Gill on Josh Gorges "As a group, weve done a great job of rising to the occasion and rising to the challenge, and everyone has done that," Gorges said. "I dont think you can say one guy has done it more than another. We all know what is at stake and were all buying into what we need to do to be successful and I am just one of the guys following suit." Gorges and Gill have spent most of this season playing together, and they have evolved into coach Jacques Martins shut-down defense pair. During the early games in Montreals first-round series against Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals, Martin didnt bother to match defensemen against the two-time League MVP, but as the series wore on, Gorges and Gill became the designated Ovechkin stoppers. Ovechkin finished the series with 5 goals and 10 points, but he was not his typical dominant self in several of the games and had only 1 goal and 1 assist in the final three contests as Montreal rallied. While other key defensemen (Andrei Markov, Jaroslav Spacek) have been lost to injury, Gorges and Gill have been a steady presence for Martin to lean on. "I think from the start of the year weve had a great relationship off the ice," Gorges said of his veteran partner. "We communicate real well and weve become good friends and I think that relates on the ice. The situations always change on the ice, and to be able to talk it out and sort it out during the play and then on the bench -- I think we can read off each other well and it makes it easy to play together." The duo have a new, but equally difficult, assignment in their second-round series -- Sidney Crosby, the 2007 MVP and a finalist again this season after collecting 51 goals and 109 points in the regular season, and he had a stellar start to the postseason, with 5 goals and 14 points in six games in the first round against Ottawa. Crosby played very well in Game 1, but much of the damage for the Pittsburgh Penguins came on the power play. Gorges and Gill were back to their stout defensive work in Game 2, keeping Crosby off the score sheet and helping the Canadiens to a 3-1 victory. "I think the biggest thing is weve been up on our gaps," Gorges said. "Our forwards have done a great job of coming back and helping out. You cant keep your gap and stay in their face if there is no back pressure. Not only that, when our forwards are coming back they are pushing them into us. They dont have any room to curl back or stop up. It forces them into us and then we can use our sticks and make plays. It is not just me and Hal -- the forwards are doing a great job as well." While Scuderi was a fifth-round pick, Gorges came from even more humble professional hockey beginnings. Gorges went undrafted as a junior with Kelowna of the Western Hockey League before he signed with the San Jose Sharks in 2002. He didnt become an NHL regular until a trade from San Jose to Montreal, and his role steadily has increased during his three-plus seasons with the Canadiens. Still only 25, Gorges has benefited from his time with a veteran-laden Montreal blue-line corps. "It is really good -- weve got (Gill) and other guys like (Roman) Hamrlik, Spacek -- even Markov -- guys who have been around for a long time. It is great as a young guy because you can step in and ask questions. You can also just watch them -- not so much when they step on the ice but how they prepare before they step on the ice. It is that calming influence. Sometimes you might get a little worked up or nervous before a big game but then you see how calm and relaxed they are, and it helps you calm down and just play your game." Gorges may not have been a known commodity in other NHL cities besides this one before the start of the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs, but hes certainly becoming one in a hurry. "Ever since Ive been playing with him, hes been solid," Gill said. "Hes the kind of guy who does whatever you need to get done. If you say, Go get under a guys skin, hell go do it. If you say, Block a shot, hell block it with his head if necessary (Gorges blocked a Mike Green shot with his head Feb. 10 in a 6-5 victory against the Capitals). It doesnt matter. Hes a guy who gets things done and it is nice to play with a guy like that." Ray Lewis Nike Jersey .

Now that the Bills have headed back to Buffalo, the Toronto Argonauts will look to defend their home turf tonight at Rogers Centre. Ray Rice Nike Jersey . The Argonauts host the East Division-leading Montreal Alouettes live on TSN, TSN HD and TSN.ca tonight at 7pm et/4pm pt. The Argonauts will be looking to redeem themselves after suffering a disappointing loss to the 1-5 Hamilton Tiger-Cats last week. The once vaunted Argos defence gave up a staggering 45 points to Hamilton, the first time the Ti-Cats had scored that many points since 1999. "Its a tough one to swallow, especially coming against an Eastern opponent," said Argos quarterback Kerry Joseph following the loss. "It was frustrating in the second half." Hamilton scored 17 unanswered points in the third quarter against the Argos, as once again, Toronto struggled in the second half of the football game. The Argos have managed just eight points after halftime in its last three games. Montreal, on the other hand, will look to expand their two-point lead over the Argonauts atop the East Division. The Alouettes walloped the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 39-11 on the strength of six field goals from kicker Damon Duval. Duval knocked through field goals of 33, 42, 23, 24 and 20 yards, including a 52-yarder in the second quarter that was the longest of his career. "Our offence has been doing a great job driving the ball down the field and putting it in the end zone, and those times that we dont get into the end zone its my job to come out and put it through the uprights," Duval said after the game. For Montreal receiver Brian Bratton, securing first place in the division was an important step in the right direction for the Als. "Everybody knows how the CFL works - the flip flops, the first half of the season and the second half of the season teams get hot, and you want to be in first place," Bratton said. "To be in first place says a lot because everybody [knows], talent-wise, theres a lot of parity." Bratton made five catches for 70 yards and one TD in the game and earned praise from his QB Anthony Calvillo. "Thats the great balance of our team, theres a lot of weapons," Calvillo noted. Following the game, CFL on TSN analyst Duane Forde agreed. "Montreals offence racked up lots of points, in lots of different ways. I loved their balance." Ray Lewis Nike Jersey .

(Sports Network) - Two pitchers gunning for their first win of the season square off this evening when Gil Meche and the Kansas City Royals open a brief two-game series against Justin Masterson and the Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field. Meche, who started the year on the disabled list with a shoulder injury, is 0-4 with a 7.17 earned run average in seven starts but is coming off his best outing of the season. Meche did not get a decision on Friday against Chicago, despite surrendering just one run and four hits in six innings of his teams 6-1 win. The 31-year-old righty is 5-9 with a 4.72 ERA lifetime against the Indians. Masterson, meanwhile, fell to 0-3 Friday in Baltimore, as he was pounded for six runs and eight hits in 5 1/3 innings to raise his ERA to 5.92. Masterson actually hasnt won since August 20 of last season and is 0-9 in that span. In seven outings (three starts) against the Royals, Masterson is 1-2 with a 5.57 ERA. Cleveland just dropped both tests of its two-game affair with the Tampa Bay Rays, falling 6-2 in Tuesdays finale. Travis Hafner added a late run-scoring double for the Indians, who have lost four of their last six games. Jason Donald, filling in for the injured Asdrubal Caabrera, had a pair of hits, walked and scored a run in his major league debut after being recalled from Triple-A Columbus prior to the game. Henrik Lundqvist Jersey. I didnt even think of who were playing, said Donald. Im just trying to handle my business and contribute whenever I get a chance up here.

The lefty has now dropped his last five starts, but did halt a streak of allowing at least four earned runs over that span. Kansas City had its two-game winning streak stopped on Tuesday, as it dropped a 4-3 decision in 10 innings to the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Mitch Maier, Scott Podsednik and Chris Getz each had an RBI during a three-run fifth for the Royals, who lost for only the second time in their last six games. It was another no-decision for reigning Cy Young Award winner Zack Greinke, who gave up two runs on four hits with six strikeouts in a seven-inning start, leaving with a one-run lead. We didnt let [the Orioles] back into the game, said Royals manager Ned Yost. They earned their way back into the game. Cleveland took two of three from the Royals in Kansas City earlier in the season. ' ' '

SOHO China, the countrys leading property developer, said yesterday that the company has entered into agreements for the acquisition of a large-scale development site in one of Beijings most prosperous business areas. Ray Rice Nike Jersey . Zhang Xin and Pan Shiyi (R) The company goes ahead with the latest project at a time when most property developers are being extremely cautious about investment amid slowdown in property market and strict loan approval as a result of the governments tightening policy. The Beijing-based property developer bought a 485,000-sq m site on prime second ring road for 5.5 billion yuan ($792.59 million). It is the second-largest project the company has ever had, managements said at a telephone conference yesterday. It is a great opportunity for us, thanks to our financial discipline which gives us strong balance sheet. We were the only bidder for the site, and 5.5 billion yuan is not a small sum for most developers in the country, said Pan Shiyi, chairman of SOHO China. The site, which has been renamed as Chaoyangmen SOHO, is former Kaiheng Center, one of the largest commercial tracts in downtown Beijing, and is located at the junction of two subway lines, making it highly-accessible, the company said. Of the total 5.5 billion yuan, about 2.2 billion yuan is equity consideration from the company and the rest 3.3 billion yuan is bank loan, Pan told reporters. About 15 percent of the total project will be designed for residential buildings, with average price of 50,000 yuan per square meter. And 34 percent is allocated for office and 20 percent for shopping malls. Property price for commercial uses can be as high as 140,000 yuan per square meter, and Pan said he was confident that buyers would nevertheless be attracted to the buildings considering the golden location. There is an open secret for successful property developers, which is also our business strategy, Pan said, adding that the utmost importance for any project is location, location and location. The project is divided into three phases. The 110,000-sq m first phase will be ready for the market next year, with the rest scheduled to be completed by 2011. Some 53,000 sq m from the first phase has been sold to Bank of Chinas Beijing branch. The developer, however, declined to disclose the price. The project is SOHO Chinas second largest property development following Jianwai SOHO. The group still has 10 billion yuan cash in hand after the acquisition and attributes its successful acquisition to financial managements. By continuously maintaining our financial discipline, when opportunities like this Chaoyangmen plot arise, we can quickly carry out our growth strategy of procuring precious and ideally-located sites at very favorable terms, said Pan.

With five games to play in the NHL season, red-hot Anaheim Ducks forward Corey Perry knows the 50-goal barrier is within reach. Jaromir Jagr Jersey . "It is tough not to think about it," Perry told a media conference call Friday after being named the NHLs player of the month. "You never know what can happen in the last couple games. Weve only get a handful of games left and well see how it goes." Perry leads the NHL with 46 goals. Hes two ahead of Tampa Bays Steven Stamkos, the reigning Rocket Richard Award co-winner with Sidney Crosby. The winner of that award has scored at least 50 goals every year since the lockout. The 25-year-old Perry is the fifth NHL player since January 1997 to score 15 goals in a single month. Amazingly, he was 10 goals behind Stamkos at the start of March and managed to race past him while helping the Ducks to an 11-3-0 record. Vancouver Canucks winger Daniel Sedin was named the NHLs second star of the month for March after putting up 21 points (9-12) in 15 games while Nashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne was given the third star. He posted a 9-3-2 record. The rookie of the month was given to Toronto Maple Leafs goalie James Reimer, who went 9-4-1. But the month belonged to Perry. His output included four game-winning goals as Anaheim surged back into the tight playoff picture in the Western Conference. Perry has always been more of a playmaker -- his career-best NHL total had been 32 goals -- and doesnt have much of an explanation for the sudden scoring surge. "Things happened in March that dont happen very often," said Perry. "Its one of those things where you go out and you play your game and you see what happens.

Trezeguet, who has had several disagreements with Domenech since the 2006 World Cup, told Tuesdays edition of France Football magazine that he could never accept playing under Domenech again. Its really over with Les Bleus, Trezeguet said. This decision is clear and irrevocable, even if it upsets me to quit in this way. Having first announced his international retirement after the 2008 European Championship - where he was not selected by Domenech - the 31-year-old Trezeguet then backtracked two months ago when he said he wanted to return for France. But Trezeguet, who is close to a full recovery from surgery on both knees in September 2008, is still bitterly upset at being overlooked for Euro 2008. I took some more time to think. I analyzed the four years spent with Domenech, what happened before and after the Euro (2008), Trezeguet added. Raymond Domenech is still in charge and has not changed his way of doing things. Even if 60 million French people want him to go, hes still here. Trezeguet is Frances third all-time leading scorer with 34 goals in 71 internationals, including the Golden Goal winner against Italy in the Euro 2000 final. Hee mocked the French Football Federation for not firing Domenech after Frances poor showing at Euro 2008, where the team went out in the group stage without winning a match. Martin Brodeur Jersey. The FFF decided to carry on with Domenech, too bad for them, Trezeguet said. He also feels that Domenech should have been more humble following Frances Euro 2008 exit - when the controversial coach asked his girlfriend to marry him live on television moments after the loss to Italy. I would have liked Raymond Domenech to be self-critical and to really analyze the reasons for this failure, Trezeguet said. But no, he asks his girlfriend to marry him ... This guy never wants to face up to reality. Several former France players have criticized Domenech, including goalkeepers Gregory Coupet and Sebastien Frey - both in the Euro 2008 squad - former Arsenal winger Robert Pires, Christophe Dugarry and Zinedine Zidane. Trezeguet said he is close to returning to Juventus. I cant say that Im 100 per cent yet, but I am apt to play, Trezeguet said. Things will happen progressively. He also committed his future to Juventus beyond 2011, when his contract expires. As long as possible, I hope, Trezeguet said. I know Ive just lost four months (through injury), but Ive surely gained several years. I would like to go as far as (Alessandro) Del Piero and (Pavel) Nedved. ' ' '

Nabokov loved the point driven home by the point of Rob Blakes stick: Although the Sharks play some of the NHLs prettiest hockey, they can also get plenty rough when necessary. Nabokov made 31 saves in his first shutout of the season, and captain Patrick Marleau had a goal and an assist in the Sharks 10th win in 11 games, 2-0 over the Ducks on Thursday night. The Pacific Division clubs third meeting of the season ended with a handful of scuffles and major penalties. The last, a prolonged grappling match around Nabokovs net with 20.4 seconds left, ended with Blake sent off for spearing and fellow veteran defenceman Scott Niedermayer hit with a misconduct penalty. "Were playing each other a lot, and I guess we dont like each other too much," said Nabokov, who earned his 41st career shutout. "Its kind of a rivalry. We obviously want what they had, and thats the Stanley Cup. Thats why its such a great rivalry. Our guys care about each other, and thats great to see." Devin Setoguchi scored his team-high 14th goal for the NHL-leading Sharks, who improved to 15-0-2 at the Tank. They also opened a gaping 13-point advantage atop the Pacific Division standings over the second-place Ducks. After an overtime loss to Edmonton last Saturday that snapped the Sharks nine-game winning streak, they had four days off before this showdown. San Jose used the rest to beat the Ducks at their own physical game, winning for the 17th time in 20 games with puck possession and disciplined hockey - and a few well-placed shoves. "They compete for every inch, and I thought we competed for our ice," Sharks coach Todd McLellan said. "It was a bit of an emotional game near the end, but it wasnt quite the kind of games weve been playing, a free-flowing one. It was a little uglier, a little more muck-and-grind along the boards, and I was happy with the way we competed in those areas." Enforcers Jody Shelley and George Parros fought early, with Shelley landing more punches but Parros ripping his foes jersey off the shoulder. Trouble erupted again with five minutes left when Milan Michalek knocked Corey Perry to the ice in response to an attempted open-ice check. Chris Pronger, Chris Kunitz and San Joses Joe Pavelski all got involved, but only Michalek and Perry got penalties. Wayne Gretzky Jersey. The last-minute shoving match included many of the same combatants along with Blake and Niedermayer, the recipient of the spear. Michalek, the Czech forward who has gradually learned the principles of feisty play in North America, also got a misconduct penalty. "Perry went to the net off a shot, and (Blake) just reacted with a spear," Niedermayer said. "I was just kind of in the middle of the pile. .. Ever since Ive been here - not that thats anything to do with it - the Sharks have been a good, tough team to play against, and weve tried our best. Maybe theyve all not been good games, but you expect to have to be at your best to win." The Sharks also relied on Nabokovs outstanding play, punctuated by a brilliant kick save on Perry in the final minute. Nabokov has played seven straight games for the Sharks since returning from a three-week injury absence, and the Vezina Trophy finalist hasnt lost in regulation since Oct. 24 at Florida. "The shutout was just icing on a cake," Nabokov said. "Everybody chipped in." Jonas Hiller stopped 25 shots for the Ducks, who lost for the third time in nine games. The Ducks were responsible for the biggest of the Sharks five losses this season, shutting out San Jose 4-0 on Oct. 17 to end the clubs unbeaten start. "Its tough to play against the Sharks right now," Hiller said. "We know we have to put pressure on them, get a body on them. We showed we were able to play better in the third, but we need to play that way for 60 minutes." Marleau got the Sharks first goal on a long shot late in the first period. Anaheim managed only intermittent offensive pressure despite a shot advantage, and Setoguchi doubled San Joses lead when he whipped home a rebound of Marleaus shot midway through the second. Notes: The Sharks again played without RW Jonathan Cheechoo and D Brad Lukowich. Cheechoo is close to returning from his upper-body injury after practising during the Sharks four-day layoff, while Lukowich still is hobbled by a groin injury. .. Sharks C Jeremy Roenick hurt his hand against the boards when he braced himself to absorb a hit in the second period. He returned to play in the third period, but said: "Its not too good right now," after the game. .. San Francisco 49ers quarterbacks Shaun Hill and Alex Smith attended the game with offensive linemen Joe Staley and Adam Snyder. ' ' '

The 22nd-seeded Henin, in her first match at Roland Garros since capturing the last of three straight titles in 2007, notched a 6-4, 6-3 victory on Tuesday. "When I woke up, and before walking on the court, I didnt know really what to expect and how I was going to deal with my emotions," Henin said. "Its my tournament." The Belgian star announced her retirement a couple weeks before the 2008 French Open, but ended the 20-month break in January of this year and has not missed a beat.

Date Krumm, who came out of a 12-year retirement in 2008, became the second- oldest woman to win a French Open match in the Open Era. Virginia Wade won a match here as a 40-year-old back in 1985.

Thirteenth-seeded French favorite Marion Bartoli blitzed Italian Maria Elena Camerin 6-2, 6-3, while 16th-seeded Belgian Yanina Wickmayer waltzed past Czech Sandra Zahlavova 6-1, 6-1.

INDIAN WELLS, Calif. Wayne Gretzky Jersey . -- Milos Raonic has been a giant killer on the ATP circuit this season, but he met his match against a fellow wild-card entry at the BNP Parisbas Masters. The Canadian rising stars run at Indian Wells came to an end Tuesday after a hard-fought 7-6 (7-1), 4-6, 6-4 loss to American teenager Ryan Harrison in third-round action. "I came out, gave it my best, he was playing well," Raonic said. "He was doing a lot of good things. I thought I played well, and he was the better player today. "It wasnt the greatest of matches, He put pressure on me, and I didnt adjust to it the best today, and therefore he came out on top. He played really well, and he deserved to win." Raonic, who suffered from a back spasm in his second-round win over Mardy Fish on Sunday, battled for two hours 29 minutes and saved three break points before finally falling to Harrison. Raonic, ranked 37th in the world, saved a match point in the tenth game of the final set as he broke his 152nd-ranked opponent. He also salvaged two more potential match-winners for Harrison in the final game before the American boomed his 11th ace of the match for the win. Raonic, the 20 year old from Thornhill, Ont., who is known for his booming serve, had 17 aces. "I played a pretty good second set. I played not a great start to the third, but I ended up playing a bit better there," Raonic said. "I gave myself a chance, and thats always what Im trying to do out there. "It doesnt matter what the score is. Its my job to give myself a chance and to keep fighting. I fight for every point, I fight for every match, I fight for every game, and its important for me to keep the spirit and stay hungry for the wins." Raonic lost two of three matches to Harrison in junior competition, and the two are likely to see a lot of each other over the coming years. The two wild-card entries put on a combatitive contest Tuesday, with Raonic saving five of seven break points while breaking four times. Raonic fell to 16-4 in his breakout season. He will head to Miami Wednesday to attend mandatory Tour training at the ATP university before playing in the Miami Masters. "I dont know where I will end up next week on the ranking list, but I think I might be a bit closer to getting seeded hopefully," he said. "Well see with how everything turns out. "It (a seeding) would be nice considering how many matches Ive played. But if not, I will be ready to play whichever way." Harrison said he knew he was up against a tough opponent in Raonic. "I think hes the up and comer whos been a giant killer right now. Hes taken out a lot of guys in the top 20, and even the top 10," said Harrison, who will play Roger Federer in the fourth round.

INDIANAPOLIS -- The challenge before the Indiana Pacers wasnt about game plans, execution or matchups. It was simply about toughness. An Orlando team without its top rebounder, injured All-Star centre Dwight Howard, dominated the boards in the first half to take a two-point lead. The heavily favoured Pacers stewed in their locker room as they faced the possibility of taking a two-game deficit to Orlando for Game 3 on Wednesday. "No one liked the way we were playing," Indiana forward Tyler Hansbrough said. "I didnt think we were playing with energy or aggressive enough." The Pacers responded, asserting complete control inside during the second half of a 93-78 win in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series. Indiana grabbed 12 of the first 13 rebounds in the third quarter and outrebounded Orlando 26-13 in the second half. "Thats what its exactly about," Indiana forward Danny Granger said. "This time of year, games are a lot harder. Everybodys playing twice as hard. You have to be the team with the most resolve, the team just playing with the most attitude to try to get the win. It was just something everybody knew." The Magic had no choice but to concede that they were outhustled. "In the third quarter, they just kicked our butts," Orlando centre Glen Davis said. "They got every loose ball." Indiana lost Game 1 81-77 on Saturday and felt its season slipping away in Game 2 before rallying. "We just came out with a different type of energy," Granger said. "We knew how important this game was. We couldnt lose two games in a seven-game series on our home court. With that in hindsight, we went after it." David West had 18 points and 11 rebounds and has emerged as a stabilizing force for the Pacers. "Hes leading our team right now in competitive spirit and will and desire and all that stuff that doesnt show up on the box score, providing our team with the necessary swagger to get a good playoff win," Pacers coach Frank Vogel said. "Hes just dialed in. A playoff tested veteran. Hopefully hes going to lead us very far in the playoffs." Granger and George Hill each added 18 points and Paul George had 17 points and eight rebounds for Indiana. The Pacers won despite making just 2 of 20 3-point attempts and Granger, the teams leading scorer this season, shooting just 7 for 21 from the field. Indiana held the Magic to 36 per cent shooting overall. Indiana has held the Magic below 40 per cent shooting in both games. &"Were going to have to be better offensively," Orlando coach Stan Van Gundy said. Rob Gronkowski Jersey. "Im going to have to find something that works." Davis led the Magic with 18 points and 10 rebounds, but he shot 5 for 16 from the field. Davis, the loudest talker after Saturdays win, was the first player off the court on Monday. J.J. Redick scored 13 points and Jameer Nelson added 12 for Orlando. Orlando knows it still has control of the series because of the split. "We tried to get two, got one," Davis said. "Were still in a good position. We just need to make sure that we play with a lot of energy and not let up." Orlando led 44-42 at halftime despite shooting just 32 per cent from the field. The Magic stayed in the game with 12 offensive rebounds. Davis had 14 points and eight rebounds in the first half. Granger hit a 3-pointer to tie the game early in the third quarter, then Hill made a layup to give the Pacers a 54-52 lead with 7:17 left and bring an uneasy crowd back into the game. Grangers three-point play extended Indianas lead midway through the quarter, and a 3-pointer by Hill made it 64-55 and forced Orlando to call a timeout. The Pacers poured it on the rest of the quarter and led 72-57 heading into the fourth. Indiana outscored Orlando 16-2 over the final 6:40 of the quarter and held the Magic to 1-for-8 shooting. Georges stepback jumper on the baseline as the shot clock expired gave Indiana a 78-64 lead with 9 minutes to play, and his three-point play 2 minutes later pushed the lead to 15. The poor second half left Orlando feeling like it wasted an opportunity. "We feel like we could have won tonight," forward Ryan Anderson said. "The fact that we played so hard and had the lead, it makes it that much more tough." Indiana plans to take its heightened intensity on the road. "It was just a scrappy night for us," George said. "And thats how weve got to play throughout this whole series." ---- Notes: Orlando missed its first four shots and didnt score for nearly 3 minutes to start the game. ... Indiana shot 55 per cent in the first quarter. ... Anderson had eight points and six rebounds in the first quarter, but fouled out with 11 points and eight boards. ...

I wasnt overly sharp in the bullpen as far as location (no replies)

PHILADELPHIA -- Roy Halladay didnt think he was sharp warming up before the game. Ryan Callahan Jersey . Boy was he wrong. Halladay pitched a seven-hitter to help Philadelphia set a club record with its 18th victory in April as the Phillies beat the New York Mets 2-1 on Saturday. He threw his first 18 pitches for strikes becoming the first pitcher since 1991 to accomplish that feat. Sid Fernandez was the last to do so on August 6, 1991, against Pittsburgh according to STATS LLC. "You know I was just trying to be aggressive. I wasnt overly sharp in the bullpen as far as location, so coming out I was trying to focus more on making good pitches," Halladay said. "That was really it. Was just trying to be aggressive, trying to throw strikes and you know got some early swings for some quick outs early on. That helped." His 107-pitch outing gave the Philadelphias bullpen a break. "You tend to use a lot of the guys out of the bullpen in close games. To be able to go out and feel like I gave those guys at least a little bit of rest, you know it feels good," said Halladay, who pitched his second complete game of the season. "Its what you want to do as a starter." Since joining the Phillies last season, Halladay has completed 11 of his 39 starts. "Roys condition is off the chart. We all know that. I will compare him to a boxer whos going 12 rounds and hes trying for 25," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel. "Hes always got something in the tank." The NL CY Young award winner allowed one run and walked one while striking out eight to lead the Phillies to their third straight victory. It was his seventh straight win over the Mets dating back to the 2006 season. During that stretch he has a 2.29 earned-run average in 55 innings pitched. Mets starter Jonathon Niese (2-3) tried to match Halladay pitch for pitch but in the end came up short, charged with the loss after Placido Polancos sacrifice fly in the seventh broke a 1-1 tie. "With a guy like him," said Niese of Halladay, "Youve got to minimize your mistakes." He narrowly escaped jams in the fifth and sixth before John Mayberry Jr. tied it in the seventh with his first homer of the year, over the left field wall. Wilson Valdez then singled to right field and Dane Sardinha drew a walk. "It was definitely a pitchers duel," Mayberry said. "It was a full count. Im just trying to come up with something that I can put in play. I was trying to get on base and start some momentum for us." Halladay struck out after his bunt attempt was called foul by the home plate umpire. Shane Victorino singled to right to chase load the bases and chase Niese. Polanco followed with a sacrifice fly to right to break the tie. A stellar play by second baseman Daniel Murphy on a hard grounder by Jimmy Rollins ended inning. Murphy dove to his right and flipped the ball to shortstop Reyes -- although replays showed Victorino beat the play. Niese pitched 6 1-3 innings allowing two runs and six hits. He struck out three and walked two. At one point he retired 11 straight batters after giving up a one-out double to the second batter of the game, Polanco. It was New Yorks third straight loss after winning six in a row. "I dont think Ive ever seen a game where a guy threw so many strikes," said Mets manager Terry Collins of Halladays command. The Mets left-hander ran into trouble in the fifth when he hit Ben Francisco to start the frame and then gave up a single to Mayberry Jr. Niese then got Wilson Valdez to hit into a double-play and later retired Halladay on a pop out to Murphy to end the inning. The Phillies threatened again in the sixth on consecutive one-out singles by Polanco and Rollins. Philadelphia slugger Ryan Howard then flew out to right-centre field, allowing Polanco to advance to third. Niese escaped the inning when first baseman Ike Davis chased Franciscos foul ball after a long run and made an over-the shoulder catch. The Mets got to the Philadelphia ace in the fourth on three straight hits. Murphy singled to right and David Wright reached on an infield hit to third. Carlos Beltrans single to centre scored Murphy.

BARCELONA, Spain -- Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao 2-1 Sunday to move five points clear of Real Madrid at the top of the standings in the Spanish league. Wayne Gretzky Jersey . David Villa gave Barcelona the lead in the fourth minute after Dani Alves tapped back a long pass from Xavi Hernandez for the Spain striker to volley home. Bilbaos Andoni Iraola equalized in the 50th from the penalty spot after Sergio Busquets had fouled Fernando Llorente in the area. Xavi and Alves linked up again for the Brazil right back to assist Lionel Messi inside the six-yard box for Barcelonas 78th-minute winner. "I think it is a complete success to be five points above Madrid," said Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola. "There is no better team in Europe." With the victory, the defending champions laid to rest any doubts about their form after having drawn with Sporting Gijon and lost to Arsenal in the Champions League this past week. "I laugh at the idea that (Barcelona) is in a crisis," said Bilbao coach Joaquin Caparros. Bilbao had earned a 0-0 draw in its last visit to Camp Nou in the Copa del Rey in January by playing without forwards and putting everyone behind the ball. Caparros repeated the same strategy in the first half, with the exception of striker Fernando Llorente alone up front. With Carles Puyol still recovering from a leg injury, Busquets played alongside Gerard Pique in the middle of Barcelonas defence, while Jose Pinto replaced Victor Valdes in goal as he rested a sore knee. Both sides were true to their styles early with Barcelona controlling the ball and Bilbao playing deep and looking for the counterattack. Villa put the hosts ahead early with his 16th goal of the season, but Bilbao held firm and Llorente sent a dangerous cross that Markel Susaeta shot into the side netting in the 11th. Barcelona continued to dominate possession with Villa hitting the crossbar with a chip shot in the 26th. Even so, Bilbao remained dangerous and Llorente drew a save from Pinto with a header in the 37th. Caparros sent on forward Gaizka Toquero after the break and ordered his team to press up the pitch. The tactic soon paid off when a bad pass from Eric Abidal led to Llorente winning the spot kick that levelled the score. Villa came close to regaining the lead in the 70th, but Bilbao goalkeeper Gorka Iraizoz touched his shot just enough to send it wide. Messi, much more active after halftime, beat his mark in close to score his league-best 25th goal-- one more than Real Madrids Cristiano Ronaldo. The Argentina star has 41 goals in all competitions. "We couldnt allow another slip-up with Madrid so close," said Messi. "There isnt much league left and each game is vital." Earlier, Villarreal was held to a 1-1 draw by last-place Malaga, Javad Nekounam scored twice in Osasunas 4-0 win over Espanyol on coach Jose Luis Mendilibars debut, and Ivan Rakitic gave Sevilla a 1-0 win over Hercules. Marco Ruben put Villarreal ahead in the 36th minute, but Malagas Sebastian Fernandez finished off a counterattack led by Jose Rondon to split the points in the 82nd. With the draw, Villarreal remained in fourth place, two points behind provincial rival Valencia. Nekounam gave Osasuna the lead in the 14th minute, heading in a corner delivered by fellow Iran international Masoud Soleimani, and added the second from the penalty spot in the 55th after Espanyols Aldo Duscher had handled in the area. Manuel "Lolo" Ortiz made it 3-0 in the 80th, and Fernando Soriano capped the victory in the 88th. "You dream to win in your debut," Mendilibar said. "But the important thing is the motivation of the players who believe in what they are doing." Osasuna moved out of the drop zone with the win, while sixth-place Espanyol has lost its last four games. At Sanchez Pizjuan stadium, Rakitic scored his first goal since joining Sevilla in January when he converted a pass from Alvaro Negredo in the 21st. Sevillas first win in four weeks lifted it within three points of the Europa League positions. Deportivo La Coruna goalkeeper Daniel Aranzubia scored in injury time to give his team a 1-1 draw at Almeria, and Racing Santander beat Getafe 1-0. Almeria looked set to convert Pablo Piattis 49th-minute opener into three points, but Aranzubia headed home a corner right on the final whistle in the 95th to record the first goal scored by a goalkeeper with a header in the history of the Spanish league. "I did what I see my teammates do," Aranzubia said. "I had come forward other times, but never scored a goal. I am thrilled." In Madrid, Pablo Pinillos scored the 88th-minute winner for Racing Santander from the penalty spot after Getafe defender Ivan Marcano was sent off for pulling down Giovani Dos Santos with only the keeper to beat.

ANAHEIM, Calif. Phoenix Coyotes Jersey . -- Jerome Williams kept throwing strikes and inducing ground balls until the Minnesota Twins were finally out of outs. Williams earned his second major league shutout with a three-hitter, leading the Los Angeles Angels to a 4-0 victory on Tuesday night. His other shutout was on June 27, 2003 with the Giants, a seven-hitter against the Oakland Athletics at San Francisco in his sixth big league start. "I just went out there and pitched. Thats all I did -- throw strikes and get people out," Williams said. "I was attacking the zone with first-pitch strikes. If I get that first pitch over, I have everything to work off of after that. I also was throwing my cutter and sinker, keeping the ball down and making those guys hit ground balls. But I didnt realize what was going on until I had two outs in the ninth." Williams (2-1) threw 109 pitches, striking out six and retiring 18 of his last 19 batters to finish in an economical 2 hours, 10 minutes. It was the third complete game in 81 career starts for the 30-year-old right-hander from Honolulu. "We pretty much didnt have much a chance against Mr. Williams out there," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "He pretty much ate us up and made quick work of us. He was throwing a nice little cutter and two-seamer, and he never really centred the ball. We didnt square up all night long." The Angels No.5 starter faced only one batter over the minimum before walking Denard Span with two out in the ninth. Alexi Casilla grounded into a double play after Span opened the game with a single, and Span was picked off first base to end the third. Spans two hits extended his career-best hitting streak to 12 games. "Jerome missed a lot of spring training with a pulled hamstring, but the fact that we didnt need a fifth starter until April 15 really helped him a lot," manager Mike Scioscia said. "I mean, we had some guys throwing the ball well, but we really felt that based on what Jerome did at the end of last year -- and how well he looked in his rehab starts -- he was the guy we wanted to get first crack at the fifth spot. And hes taken advantage of it. "You need five starters. But the fact that Jerome is number five I dont think is indicative of how well hes pitched for us," Scioscia added. "This guy could be in a lot of rotations in the major leagues -- and with a little higher seeding. After a rough start in New York, hes really bounced back. Hes shown that he can make pitches and that his stuff plays in the big leagues." Torii Hunter homered for the fourth time in five games and Howie Kendrick also went deep against struggling Francisco Liriano, but Albert Pujols went 0 for 4 with a run-scoring groundout. The three-time NL MVP and two-time home run champ, who had 445 in his previous 11 seasons with St. Louis and hit a career-best 49 in 2006, has gone a career-worst 31 games and 125 at-bats since his last one on Sept. 22, 2011. Pujols, who signed a 10-year, $240 million contract in December as a free agent, hit seven homers during spring training -- including a tape-measure shot at Dodger Stadium that was estimated at 441 feet in his final swing of the exhibition schedule. Liriano (0-4) gave up four runs and seven hits in 5 1-3 innings. The left-hander surrendered five earned runs in each of his previous five appearances, including a six-batter relief stint in his final outing of last season after missing most of the final five weeks with a strain in the back of his left shoulder. Liriano has given up 24 earned runs, 32 hits and 16 walks over 21 2-3 innings in his five starts, along with a 9.97 ERA. He would be 0-5 this year if the Twins hadnt turned a 6-0 deficit into a 10-9 victory against the Angels on April 12 at Target Field -- leaving him with a no-decision. "The result wasnt very good, but I feel like Im making better pitches than last time," Liriano said. "I feel more consistent throwing strikes and I think things are getting better. I made a few adjustments -- but I also made a few mistakes." Hunter, a teammate of Lirianos for three seasons in Minnesota, drove his 1-0 changeup to left-centre leading off the second. Two batters later, Kendrick homered into the left field bullpen on the same count. "When I was with the Twins, he was throwing 96, 97 with a slider that was biting. He had a couple of injuries, but hes still bringing it up -- sometimes to 94 or 95," Hunter said. "But sometimes I think he leaves the ball up, and thats probably it. Other than the four runs we got, he settled down and kept the ball down and tried to minimize the damage." NOTES: Liriano is 7-9 with a 5.28 ERA in 23 starts since his no-hitter against the White Sox on May 3, 2011 at Chicago. ... Liriano has yet to complete six innings this season. Last year, he was 9-0 with 2.32 ERA in 13 starts when he made it through the sixth. ... The Twins have lost eight of nine games and have a major league-worst 6-17 record. ...

Zenit won 4-1 at Bayer Leverkusen in the opening leg of the quarter-finals for European soccers second-tier club competition. While Getafe scored a last-minute goal to draw 1-1 at Bayern Munich, PSV Eindhoven drew by the same score at Fiorentina, and Sporting Lisbon held Rangers 0-0. Zenit, the Russian league champion, is poised to reach the final four of the UEFA Cup for the first time after scoring three goals in 13 second-half minutes against Leverkusen, the 1988 winner. "That was really sobering," Leverkusen coach Michael Skibbe said. "We were all so off our game you cant pin it on individuals." Pavel Pogrebnyak, Aleksandr Anyukov and Igor Denisov scored for Zenit after the two teams were locked at 1-1. Pogrebnyak scored in the 53rd minute on a breakaway for his eighth goal in the competition this season, drawing level as leading scorer with Bayern striker Luca Toni. Anyukov made it 3-1 in the 61st with a long-range shot, and Igor Denisov finished the rout three minutes later by shooting past goalkeeper Rene Adler. Andrei Arshavin had earlier given Zenit a 1-0 lead with a 20th-minute goal from a solo run after Tranquillo Barnettas errant pass. But Stefan Kiessling equalized for Leverkusen in the 33rd. Zenit coach Dick Advocaat watched from the stands in the last of a three-match ban from the dugout. The Barcelona-based Getafe drew with Bayern in its first European season thanks to Cosmin Contras 90th-minute equalizer. Contrra chipped a loose ball over the defence after goalkeeper Oliver Kahn rushed out to smother Juan Angel Albins attempt. Henrik Sedin Jersey. Bayerns goal came when Toni jumped higher than two defenders and headed in a corner from Bastian Schweinsteiger in the 26th minute. Bayern is seeking a second UEFA Cup title, after 1996, and if it advances after the second leg on April 10 it will now most likely avoid an all-German semifinal after Leverkusens collapse. The other semifinal matchup would pit either Fiorentina or PSV against Rangers or Sporting Lisbon. Adrian Mutu put Fiorentina in front in the 56th minute and Danny Koevermans equalized for PSV in the 63rd. Mutus fourth goal in the tournament came when a kick from Fiorentina goalkeeper Sebastien Frey travelled all the way to the opposite area and the Romania forward hit the ball into the head of PSV goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes. The ball bounced back off Mutu and into the empty net. Seven minutes later, Koevermans slipped by Fiorentinas defence and connected from the edge of the area to score. "We tried to quicken the pace but theyre a great club," Fiorentina coach Cesare Prandelli said. "Weve got to go to Holland now to try to score a goal and win the game." Gomes was injured while attempting a kick and replaced by reserve Bas Roorda in the 61st. PSVs most dangerous striker, Jefferson Farfan, will miss the second leg after picking up a yellow card in added time. Rangers struggled to produce a shot on target against Sporting. The Portuguese team had several chances in the second half, through Leandro Grimi, Simon Vukcevic, Anderson Polga and Leonel Tonel. ' ' '
