Posted in IYH Forums by jokergreen0220 at 23:10, Feb 18 2020

Indias Yogeshwar Dutt has asked wrestling authorities to let the London Olympics 60kg wrestling silver medal remain with the family of the deceased Russian wrestler Besik Kudukhov, who had been stripped of the medal following a positive dope test.On Tuesday, Kudukhovs silver was formally awarded to Yogeshwar, who had lost to the Russian in the quarterfinals. Kudukhov, a four-time world champion, died in a car crash in 2013. He failed a World Anti-Doping Agency dope test conducted on his sample from 2012 before the Rio Games.Medal jaane se unke parivaar ko takleef hogi 100% (Kudukhovs family would be pained for sure when the medal is taken away from them), Yogeshwar told ESPN. For his mother and father, that medal contains memories of their child and that is all they have left with them today.The news about the upgrade to the London silver, rather than bring him any satisfaction, Yogeshwar said, had kept him awake at night.I had heard about his death in 2013 and if Kudukhov was alive it was a different thing but he is no more, he said. Yesterday I thought about his parents and his family. We cant do anything for them who today only have his memories with them. Failed ho ya kuch bhi ho, yeh woh medal usi ke paas rahe. Yaadein hi hai uski, uski family ke paas?(Whether he failed his dope test or not, that medal should stay with his family. That medal contains special memories for his family, that is all they have of him.) I would not like that medal or anything taken away from his family through which they remember him. Usko soch ke laga ki yeh theek rahega?(When I thought about it I felt this would be best).When Yogeshwar was informed about his upgrade from a bronze to a silver medal, he said: Mere ko khushi nahi hui (It brought me no happiness). I have my bronze medal with me. Ab koi farak nahin padta kya hai, kya nahi hai (It doesnt matter now what is with you and what is not).The wrestler, who is currently based in Madhuban with the Haryana Police, said he had not been able to recover from his disappointment over Rio. Ive still not been able to work out what happened there and I know I could not fulfil what I had set out to do, he said.Earlier in the day, Yogeshwar offered to forgo his silver through Twitter.Besik Kudukhov ?????? ?????? ??? ???? ?????? ?? ?????? dope test ??? fail ?? ???? ???? ???? ??? ??????? ?? ??? ??? ???? ?????? ???? ????- Yogeshwar Dutt (@DuttYogi) 31 August 2016Translation: Besik Kudukhov was a magnificent wrestler.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- As reporters encircled Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers at his locker, linebacker Clay Matthews hurried past and shouted out in jest perhaps the most important question of the week.A-Rod, are you playing? Matthews yelled.Oh yes, Rodgers plans to play Sunday against the Chicago Bears . He just didnt practice Wednesday to focus on rehabbing his leg injuries, a plan coach Mike McCarthy said will likely stay in place for the quarterback through Thursday.McCarthy said Rodgers told him not to hold anything back for the game plan against the Bears as Green Bay seeks a fourth consecutive victory as they chase a spot in the playoffs.Im very optimistic by nature. So we can always take things out. Its harder to add things back in, Rodgers said. So get everything in, and if theres anything weve got to take out on Sunday, well do that.The Packers (7-6) have won three straight heading into a three-game stretch to end the regular season against NFC North foes. Tied with Minnesota for second at two games behind Detroit, Green Bay needs help to return to the playoffs an eighth straight season.Rodgers hurt his left hamstring a few weeks ago against the Eagles. He hurt his right calf while throwing a 66-yard touchdown pass to Davante Adams on the third play of the 38-10 victory last weekend over the Seattle Seahawks.Im feeling better. I appreciate the time to rehab. With an injury like this, its really about maximizing rehab time, Rodgers said Wednesday. So I got to get a couple extra hours there with the training staff. It was good.The leg injuries have limited Rodgers mobility. The two-time NFL MVP was still able to dissect the Seattle defense for 246 yards and three touchdowns on 18-of-23 passing before leaving early in the fourth quarter with his team up by four scores.Oh yeah, I mean, Aaron Rodgers is as tough as anybody Ive ever known, McCarthy said.He recalled one instance in Rodgers first season as the starter in 2008 when he sprained his right shoulder against Tampa. McCarthy wasnt sure how limited Rodgers arm might bee the next week against Atlanta.ddddddddddddThen late in the first quarter of the Falcons game, McCarthy called a deep shot to Donald Driver on third-and-1, briefly forgetting about Rodgers injury. Rodgers hit the pass, then finished 25 of 37 for 313 yards and three touchdowns.That was a big moment for him and hes done that so many times now, probably things that may not seem as big, McCarthy said. His focus, its extraordinary.TIE IT UPThe NFLs oldest rivalry will have its 194th meeting, but Sundays game could mark a milestone in the series.The Bears lead the series 94-93-6, including a split of two postseason games. A Packers win on Sunday would tie the series for the first time since 1933.While that would be nice, Packers right tackle Bryan Bulaga dont need any extra motivation.I think the motivation is to win the game and keep ourselves in a good place with what we got going on here, Bulaga said. The overall record is what it is ... but its just about winning and playing good football and improving as a team.INJURY REPORTJared Cook was a full participant in practice after the tight end left the Seahawks game late in the second quarter with a chest injury. ... Matthews was a full participant for the first time in a couple weeks, a sign his shoulder injury might be improving. Matthews played mainly in pass-rush situations against Seattle. ... LB Nick Perry (hand) may not practice until Saturday, McCarthy said. The team leader with eight sacks, Perry missed the Seahawks game.TRANSACTIONThe team signed linebacker Jordan Tripp on Wednesday. A fifth-round draft pick of the Dolphins in 2014, Tripp last played with Seattle, appearing in seven games with one start before being placed on injured reserve on Dec. 3. He reached an injury settlement on Dec. 9. Tripp has 11 career tackles.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAP ' ' '

BOSTON -- Mookie Betts will have to wait until Thursday to find out if he will be crowned Most Valuable Player in the American League. But the Boston Red Sox right fielder couldnt put off knee surgery any longer.Betts hoped his balky right knee would heal with rest. When his symptoms persisted, he elected arthroscopic surgery, Red Sox president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski told ESPN on Friday.The procedure, which involves the removal of a loose body from Betts knee, was performed Thursday at Massachusetts General Hospital by team orthopedist Dr. Peter Asnis. Betts is expected to be ready for spring training and possibly even the World Baseball Classic if he chooses to participate, the team said.Red Sox manager John Farrell said Betts dropped by Fenway Park on Friday and was moving around well. Farrell labeled the surgery very minor.Betts had played through soreness in his knee since July. The injury did not force the 24-year-old to miss much time, and it did not impact his performance. He batted .318 with 31 home runs, 113 RBIs and 26 stolen bases in 158 games.Dombrowski said Betts didnt experience new or changing symptoms, just a continuance of what he dealt with after the All-Star break. Asked why Betts didnt act as proactively as second baseman Dustin Pedroia, who had knee surgery within a few days of the Red Sox getting swept out of the Division Series by the Cleveland Indians, Dombrowski said Betts and the team thought the injury might respond to rest.Wanted to see how he felt, Dombrowski. It continued to bother him a little, so, he decided to have it.Betts is among the most dynamic players in the league. He won Gold Glove and Silver Slugger awards this week and is one of three MVP finalists, joining Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout and Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve. https://www.cheapjerseyslines.com/bryce-callahan-jersey-retro/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Bryce Callahan Jersey Retro .

DEL MAR, Calif. -- Trainer Bob Baffert ended a memorable day Sunday with a powerhouse victory by Lord Nelson at Del Mar in the Grade 1, $301,035 Bing Crosby Stakes, which earned Lord Nelson an automatic berth into the Breeders Cup Sprint on Nov. 5 at Santa Anita through the Win and Youre In program.The race was never in doubt. Lord Nelson ($4), the favorite, sat third while just behind and outside two dueling leaders, effortlessly moved to them on the turn, then drew away through the lane for a four-length victory.What is in doubt is whether he ran the fastest six furlongs in track history. He just might have, but theres no way of knowing for certain.Lord Nelson was timed in a blistering 1:07.65 for six furlongs. The track record is listed in the program as 1:07.60, set by King of Cricket in 1973. However, King of Cricket actually ran six furlongs in 1:07 3/5, and that is expressed in the program as 1:07.60. But in his era, races were timed in fifths of a second, instead of the more-precise hundredths of today. So, King of Cricket could have run six furlongs anywhere from 1:07.60 to 1:07.79.Lord Nelson will head into the fall as perhaps the horse to beat in the Breeders Cup Sprint. Since returning from a five-month layoff, he has won all three of his starts, his prior two at Santa Anita, including the Grade 1 Triple Bend going seven furlongs. On Sunday, he ran the fastest race of his life on raw time, and likely a career-best Beyer Speed Figure, eclipsing the 100 he earned in his first two starts this year.Hes improving. Hes become a really serious sprinter, Baffert said. I was worried about the cutback, but hes doing so well. Hes improving. He was cloose to those splits and he kicked.ddddddddddddSubtle Indian and Justin Squared dueled through blazing fractions of 21.16 seconds for the opening quarter and 43.73 seconds for a half-mile. Lord Nelson, under Flavien Prat, was up by two at mid-stretch after the two leaders chucked it, and he doubled his lead at the wire.Indexical, a 42-1 shot, finished second, 3-1/4 lengths in front of third-place Alsvid. Kaabraaj was fourth and was followed, in order, by Home Run Kitten, Justin Squared, Dream Saturday, and Subtle Indian. Bluegrass Bronco was scratched Sunday morning.Lord Nelson was the third winner on the card for Baffert, who also won with American Pharoahs full sister, the 2-year-old filly American Cleopatra, in her debut, as well as an allowance race with Jazzy Times.Lord Nelson, 4, is a son of Pulpit, whom B. Wayne Hughes of Spendthrift Farm acquired late last year as a stallion prospect. Baffert said he told Hughes that Lord Nelson could continue to race at age 4 if he was freshened, hence the lengthy vacation until his 2016 debut on June 3.Now, with three wins in three starts, Baffert said he just wants Lord Nelson to hold that form until the Breeders Cup.Lord Nelson has now won six times in 12 starts. He ended the weekend on an upbeat note for Hughes, whose mare Beholder was narrowly beaten on Saturday in the Grade 1 Clement Hirsch here.Thats the ups and downs of the game, Baffert said.On Sunday, with three wins here and a second with American Freedom in the Haskell at Monmouth, the needle was pointing up for Baffert.

MIAMI -- The game was very much in doubt. A sold-out arena was basically silent. The chance of getting back to the NBA Finals for a third straight year could have slipped away. Cue LeBron James. A third quarter for the ages by the four-time MVP turned the game, and perhaps the entire Eastern Conference finals, around. James scored 16 of his 30 points in the quarter, fueling what was a 20-point turnaround at one point, and the Heat beat the Indiana Pacers 90-79 in Game 5 on Thursday night. The Heat lead the series 3-2, with a chance to finish it off in Indiana on Saturday night and move on to a finals matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. "Thats what I came here for, to be able to compete for a championship each and every year," James said. "Im one step away from doing it once again. Its not promised. Its not promised at all. I made a tough decision. Obviously, I think we all know the story. I envisioned something that was bigger as far as a team ... and weve got an opportunity as a team, once again, for the third year straight to make a trip to the NBA Finals." Indiana was up 46-40 early in the third, surely sensing a chance to grab total control of the series. Over the next 11 minutes, the Heat outscored the Pacers 30-10, with James either scoring or accounting for 25 Miami points. He shot 7 for 10 in the third quarter; the Pacers shot 3 for 14. He had four rebounds in the quarter; the Pacers, as a team, grabbed six. He had four assists in the quarter; the Pacers had one. "Thats LeBron showing his greatness and making it look easy," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "What we talked about was doing whatever it takes and competing for each other without leaving anything out there. His engine in that third quarter was incredible. He was tireless, he was making plays on both ends of the court, rebounding, covering so much ground defensively and then making virtually every play for us offensively. Its really remarkable." James added eight rebounds and six assists, and Udonis Haslem made his last eight shots on the way to a 16-point night. Mario Chalmers scored 12 and Dwyane Wade added 10 for the Heat, who ousted the Pacers in six games in a second-round matchup last season and will look to do the same this time around, albeit one round deeper. Paul George had 27 points and 11 rebounds for the Pacers, who got 22 points from Roy Hibbert and 17 from David West. The Pacers led by as many as seven at one point, but had no answer for the Heat in the third and now have to win back-to-back games -- against a team that hasnt lost consecutive games since early January. "I dont really know," Pacers coach Frank Vogel said, when asked if theres anything a team can do when James gets on a roll like the one he had in the third quarter. "He was pretty special tonight. Theres no question about it. This whole team is special. Its one of the best teams that this leagues ever seen and were enjoying competing against them. We know we can beat them, but weve got to play better than we did tonight." Haslem said Juwan Howard threw a few things in the locker room and had a few choice words for teammates at halftime -- "a lot of bleeps and stuff like that," Haslem said -- and that James echoed the same remarks just before the start of the third. "We had 24 minutes to play for our livelihoods," Haslem said. "And thats how we played in the second half." Haslems first shot of the night was a complete brick, bouncing off the top of the backboard. He was perfect the rest of the way, including going 5 for 5 in the third. For the second time in the series, Haslem -- who has struggled with his shot for the better part of two years -- finished 8 for 9. "That burned us," Vogel said. Haslem got past Hibbert easily and into the lane for a dunk that put Miami up 47-46, the first Heat lead since 4-2. The Pacers were back on top by a point with 6:58 left in the third when fighting words reappeared, on a play where George Hill was called for an offensive foul after getting caught pushing off on a drive. West angrily approached Chalmers after the play and both of those players, along with Haslem, got technicals when it was all said and done. It clearly fired up Miami. James and Haslem combined to score 18 of their teams 21 points in the final 6:04 of the third. Everything came on jump shots, including a 3-pointer from Chalmers, three jumpers averaging 20 feet from Haslem, and five more from James, including a 3-pointer with 16 seconds left in the quarter that put Miami up 70-56 and had him yelling at no one in particular as the arena roared. "We didnt have enough fight," West said. "We stalled." George didnt sound overly impressed even after James third-quarter numbers. "He just came out and make some shots," George said. "You take away that third, and were in the ballgame." As if this one needed any more buildup, there was plenty of news long before tipoff. The NBA announced Thursday morning that it fined James, West and Lance Stephenson $5,000 each for flopping in Game 4, plus upgraded a foul that West committed against Wade in the fourth quarter of that game to a flagrant-1. Then Hibbert and West, speaking after Indianas morning practice, said they have to protect their knees when Shane Battier is in the game for Miami, though neither flatly accused the Heat forward of dirty play. And all that happened more than eight hours prior to game time. Things didnt exactly calm down once the ball went into the air. Indiana was blown out in Game 5 of a tied-up series at Miami last season, never holding the lead and losing by 32 points. This one took a much different tone from the outset, with the Pacers running out to a 15-9 lead that could have been worse for Miami given that West and Hibbert combined to miss three easy layups in the opening minutes. "Theres no question, we blew some opportunities in the first quarter," Vogel said. George and Hibbert combined for all of Indianas 23 points in the first quarter. Indianas lead was four after the period, and when the second began, the reminders that these teams simply do not like each other started coming fast and furious. Chris Andersen and Tyler Hansbrough needed to be separated early in the second, and both got technicals after Andersen appeared to hit Hansbrough twice, first with a shoulder and then with a two-hand shove. Andersen also picked up a flagrant-1 for his efforts, things cooled off a bit for the rest of the half, and Indiana went into the break up 44-40. The Pacers then scored the first basket of the third. After that, all Heat. Or more specifically, all James and Haslem, who put together a burst that the defending champions desperately needed. "Its the playoffs," Wade said. "Shane Battier said this is when you feel alive, when your backs against the wall. ... Youve got to go out there and play. This is what we prepared for all season." A year ago, the Heat lost Game 5 of the East finals to Boston, and needed a 45-point game from James in Game 6 just to extend their season. Not this time. The finals are now one win away. "We were able to respond," James said. NOTES: The last time Haslem had a 10-point third quarter was also against Indiana -- but in March 2009. ... David Beckham was courtside near the Heat bench, Floyd Mayweather Jr. was courtside near the Pacers bench. ... Hansbrough left in the fourth quarter with a sprained right ankle after falling over Battier, who was down on the court after going for a rebound. ... Both teams seemed a tad nervous in the opening moments. Wade had two airballs in the first quarter, Haslem had a jumper bounce off the top of the backboard, and Hill tossed an alley-oop that missed everybody and bounced off the backboard like a fastball. https://www.cheapducks.com/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Fake Ducks Jerseys .

MILWAUKEE -- Two of the National Basketball Associations hottest teams face off Monday night when the San Antonio Spurs visit the Milwaukee Bucks at the Bradley Center.The Spurs come to town having won two in a row and 11 of their last 12 games while the Bucks extended their winning streak to a season-high four games Saturday night with a 112-103 victory over the Nets.Giannis Antetokounmpo has been a driving force during Milwaukees winning streak, but Jabari Parker has been a big factor as well, averaging 16.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists during those four games.Hes played real well, Antetokounmpo said. Hes leading us out there. I hope that he can keep playing the same way.The two building blocks of Milwaukees rebuilding efforts are starting to develop their own rhythm and that chemistry is spreading to the rest of the Bucks young roster.It was evident Saturday, when the Bucks watched a 16-point lead turn into a back-and-forth affair in the fourth quarter. Head coach Jason Kidd decided to let the guys on the floor figure out how to stop the bleeding on their own, and the move paid off.I wasnt going to call timeout, Kidd said. I wanted to see if they were going to talk themselves through it because thats what good teams do.Milwaukee has won five of its last six games since falling just short against Golden State Nov. 21. During that stretch, the Bucks have beaten the Magic twice, knocked off the defending champion Cavaliers and then beat Brooklyn in back-to-back games.That success, especially against good competition, has led to increased confidence.ddddddddddddWinning games we can (be in) control and sneak up on other teams that are really good, Parker said. Wins like that carry over. Its all about using these habits we get in each win.San Antonio owns the second-best mark in the NBA this season but has struggled out of the gate at times.We cant get it going, Manu Ginobili told ESPN.com. Its taking us a while to get into the rhythm, into the aggressiveness that we need to get leads. Yeah, we are not playing well, but the good thing is that meanwhile were getting wins and were maintaining a good record.San Antonios defense has been a big boost so far. While the Spurs are 19th in scoring this season with 103.0 points per game, theyre allowing just 98.2 -- the fourth-best mark in the league.It seems like in the second half our defense always picks up and we get back into the games because of the defense, coach Gregg Popovich said. Thats a good thing, I guess, that it gets better as the game goes along.Point guard Tony Parker sat out the Spurs victory Friday over Washington with a bruised left quad. Hes missed seven games this season and is considered day-to-day as San Antonio kicks off a three-game swing through the Upper Midwest.We have got a how much better are you meter? Popovich told the San Antonio Express News. We will check it out. ' ' '

SAN DIEGO -- London is not calling for Major League Baseball next year.MLB has given up plans to play regular-season games in the British capital in 2017.Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said in January that his staff was working hard at playing in London, and MLB officials looked at the renovated Olympic Stadium as a possible venue. The Red Sox likely would have been one of the teams involved.There was discussion about London early on, union head Tony Clark said Monday. Unfortunately there were a number of moving pieces related to London that shortened our window in an effort to try to find common ground on that happening, and we werent able to get it done in time.Dan Halem, MLBs chief legal officer, said that ongoing collective bargaining negotiations and next springs World Baseball Classic kept the league from pursuing a London series for next year.We did not have enough time to work out all the details to play in London in 2017, Halem said. We continue to discuss international play with the union, including playing games in London.Clark also was non-committal about having players on 25-man active rosters made available for the 2020 Olympics, which will be held in Tokyo from July 24-Aug. 9. The International Olympic Committee executive board voted last month to support a six-nation tournament that year in both baseball and womens softball, and the full IOC is to vote in August.Baseball became a medal sport for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics but was dropped for the 2012 London Games and wont be played this year in Rio de Janeiro. In 2008, only those not on 25-man big league rosters as of late June were allowed to compete -- the U.S. team included Jake Arrieta and Stephen Strasburg -- both All-Stars this year.Is there an appreciation for the value of having baseball in the Olympics? Yes, there is, Clark said. Is there an appreciation for the season and how or if it could work with our active players? Yeah, theres a conversation, but we run into the same roadblocks we always have. https://www.49ersrookiestore.com/49ers-Mitch-Wishnowsky-Jersey/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Mitch Wishnowsky Super Bowl Jersey .

The play in question occurred during the second period of New Yorks 5-2 win over Boston on Wednesday. Pastrnak was assessed a minor penalty for the play.Pastrnak will forfeit $10,277.78 in salary during the suspension.The former first-rounder has been productive on the Bruins first line this season, scoring five goals and producing eight points through seven games.He is eligible to return Nov. 3 when Boston visits Tampa Bay.

PORTLAND, Ore. -- The matchup between the Chicago Bulls and Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night at the Moda Center features a duel between two of the better shooting guards in the NBA.Chicagos Jimmy Butler collected 37 points, nine assists, eight rebounds and three steals Saturday in a 116-105 win over the Washington Wizards.Portlands CJ McCollum scored 21 points to help the Trail Blazers defeat Denver 112-105 at home Sunday night.Butler is the first Bull to reach those figures since Scottie Pippen had 37, eight and eight in December 1995. The 2016 U.S. Olympian, who is averaging 24.3 points, is the first Bull who has scored at least 20 points with three steals in four straight games since Pippen (1994-95).I cant express how much easier it makes it on everyone else having someone like that on both sides of the floor, Chicago center Robin Lopez said.Over the past four games, Butler is averaging 29 points, seven rebounds, 5.3 rebounds and four steals and is a collective 42 for 46 at the line.Were putting the ball in his hands bringing the ball down the floor a lot more than we did a year ago, second-year Bulls coach Fred Holberg said. Last year, wed bring him off action to get him to the top of the floor. Now hes bringing it down and going to work. We want the ball in Jimmys hands because of his ability to draw contact.Butler is providing more vocal leadership, too, than ever before for the Bulls (6-4).The thing I love about him is how he has continued to talk and been a great leader with his voice this year, Holberg said.Said Butler: Its going to have to be me to lead the charge when it comes tto coming out with the right energy, making sure were doing everything were supposed to do at both ends.dddddddddddd Im definitely capable of doing that.McCollum also is on a scoring tear of late, with three 30-plus-point games in his past five games for the Blazers (7-4).CJ seems to have found his rhythm, Portland coach Terry Stotts said of the 2015-16 NBA Most Improved Player Award recipient. I go back to when everybody was so concerned about him in preseason. He has showed he is picking up where he left off last year.That was a breakout season for McCollum in his first year as a starter. He averaged 20.8 points while shooting 44.8 percent from the field, 41.7 percent from 3-point range and 82.7 percent from the free-throw line.So far this season, McCollum is boasting better numbers across the board -- a 22.1-point average while shooting 47.2 percent from the field, 43.1 percent on 3-point attempts and 85.7 percent from the line. He is also averaging 4.3 rebounds and 3.1 assists as a combo guard, since Stotts is employing him at the point when Damian Lillard is out of the game.I just want to do whatever it takes to get on the court, McCollum said. When Im playing alongside Dame, I get a lot of opportunities off the ball, a lot of shots in the flow of the offense. When I play (as point guard) with the second unit, Im trying to make the right decisions on the pick-and-roll, and when Dame comes back in, to get him off the ball some as well, because hes a unique scorer.

Every Little Leaguer dreams of making it to the big leagues. A total of 45 players have reached both the Little League World Se

Posted in IYH Forums by jokergreen0220 at 11:44, Feb 18 2020

Every Little Leaguer dreams of making it to the big leagues. A total of 45 players have reached both the Little League World Series and MLB, including these 11 current pros who first hit it big on the fields of Williamsport, Pennsylvania.Christian BethancourtSan Diego Padres catcher Christian Bethancourt began playing baseball at age 5. As a third baseman, Bethancourt had a tendency to stray from his position. Every time a batter hit a ball, even if it was toward right field, he would run after it. So his parents convinced him to move behind the plate but telling him that abandoning his post could lead to his team giving up a run.The younger Bethancourt became a catcher and star pitcher for the Panama City, Panama, squad that reached the 2004 Little League World Series -- but that experience exploring other positions would eventually come in handy. Although Bethancourts Panama team was eliminated in the quarterfinals, he didnt have to wait long to reach an even bigger stage. He was signed as a non-drafted international free agent by the Atlanta Braves in 2008 and began his minor league career at the age of 16. After two seasons in Atlanta, he was traded to San Diego in December. This year, in addition to serving as the Padres backup backstop, Bethancourt has pitched and logged plenty of time in the outfield.?Todd FrazierBefore he became a hometown Home Run Derby champ -- and the first Little League World Series alum to win the Derby -- Chicago White Sox?led his Toms River, New Jersey, team to the 1998 LLWS championship. As the leadoff hitter, the 13-year-old hit a grand slam in the third inning to put his team up 6-4 in Game 2 of the U.S. Central vs. U.S. East matchup. He also hit a homer and went 4-for-4 in the 12-9 victory over Kashima, Japan, in the championship game and was the winning pitcher.Adam LoewenAs a 12-year-old, Loewen tossed a three-hit shutout in the 1996 Canadian Little League championships to propel the Kennedy team from Surrey, British Columbia, past Toronto and on to the LLWS. The left-hander (above, in Williamsport) was the teams best pitcher as well as its top hitter. Kennedy lost two of three games it played in Williamsport, but the experience led Loewen to choose baseball over hockey. I always loved hockey more, he told The Morning Call. But I remember that summer [playing in the LLWS] being the most fun I ever had.Loewen -- who became the fourth Canadian selected in the first round of the draft when the Baltimore Orioles took him fourth overall in 2001 -- pitched for the Orioles from 2006-08 before becoming a position player and seeing time at all three outfield positions as well as first base for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2011. Loewen switched back to pitching for stints with the?Philadelphia Phillies. He earned his first win with the Arizona Diamondbacks, who called him up from Triple-A on July 30, on Aug. 6.Lance LynnOnly a dozen people in baseball history have played in both the Little League World Series and the actual World Series, and only five of those 12 have played multiple times in baseballs Fall Classic. Cardinals starter Lance Lynn is one of those five.Lynn helped lead Brownsburg, Indiana, Little League to the Little League World Series in 1999. In Williamsport, the 12-year-old, who was then 5-foot-9 and 169 pounds, threw eight innings, posting a record of 0-1 with an ERA of 4.09 -- and also saw time at first base. In seven LLWS at-bats, he had three hits and scored a run for a .429 batting average.Pitching against the U.S. South team from Alabama -- a squad that included Colby Rasmus, who would be his Cardinals teammate briefly in 2011 -- Lynn had a shutout through four innings, but allowed a run in the fifth and then gave up a game-ending grand slam in the sixth. Brownsburg lost 5-4 and finished the World Series tournament 0-3, but 12 years later Lynn made his way back to the grand stage. As an MLB rookie, Lynn won the 2011 World Series as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals. He was a key contributor out of the bullpen for the NL champions, including a perfect eighth inning in the Game 7 victory over the Texas Rangers.Jurickson ProfarProfar played in the 2004 Little League World Series as an 11-year-old and helped Pabao Little League win the first championship for the island of Curacao. He was a force both on the mound and at the plate for Pabao, going 2-0 with a save over 12 1/3 innings and striking out 19 while also batting .313 (5-for-16) with a double and five RBIs. Profar returned to the LLWS in 2005, when his team reached the international title game. That year, he hit .389 (7-for-1 with seven hits, five runs scored, three walks and two RBIs. He also pitched 13 innings in three games, giving up seven hits and four runs, striking out 26 and walking eight, earning a 1-0 record and a 1.85 ERA.In his first game for the Rangers on Sept. 2, 2012, Profar homered in his initial major league at-bat. After missing two season because of a shoulder injury, Profar was called up to replace Rougned Odor in May and made the most of it, earning a regular roster spot as a utility player.Yusmeiro PetitThe Washington Nationals reliever is a winner. As a 10-year-old -- and backup second baseman -- Petit (No. 3, right-center, above) helped his team from Coquivacoa Little League in Maracaibo, Venezuela, win the 1994 Little League World Series title. It was the first time a Venezuelan team had won the championship and the first title for a Latin American team since Mexico won in 1958. When Petit and the San Francisco Giants?won a championship in 2014, he became the only player to win both the Little League World Series and the MLB World Series.Colby RasmusHouston Astros outfielder Colby Rasmus led the Phenix City, Alabama, National Little League to the 1999 Little League World Series. Phenix City battled back through the losers bracket and beat Toms River East American Little League (3-2) to win the U.S. title but lost the championship game 5-0 to Hirakata Little League from Osaka, Japan. Rasmus went 5-for-10 with a home run, three runs scored and three RBIs -- and also recorded seven strikeouts over the course of the tournament.Rasmus was also a member of the 2008 U.S. Olympic baseball team and was selected 28th overall in the 2005 amateur draft by the Cardinals. He finished eighth in the NL Rookie of the Year voting in 2009 and has since played for the Blue Jays and Astros, but was relegated to the 15-day DL on Aug. 7.Cory RasmusLos Angeles Angels pitcher Cory Rasmus took a back seat to his older brother during the 1999 LLWS. Nonetheless, he followed his sibling to the big leagues in 2013, where the two faced off in a rare fraternal matchup. Just 10 days into his rookie season, Cory (then with the Atlanta Braves) faced Colby, then with Toronto. It marked the first time one brother had pitched to another in MLB since June 13, 2010. Big bro had the upper hand once again, as Colby lined a double to left field.Michael SaundersSaunders grew up playing baseball in British Columbia and going to Seattle Mariners games at the Kingdome. Like many Canadian kids, he played hockey too, but a run to the Little League World Series in 1999 as a 12-year-old with the Gordon Head Little League convinced Saunders that baseball was the sport for him. I think playing in an international competition [at that age] and then getting a chance to play with the national team and travel the world really made me fall in love with the game, said Saunders, who was drafted by his favorite team in the 11th round of the 2004 draft and played for Seattle from 2009-14.The Mariners traded him to Toronto in December 2014, but missed the 2015 season after stepping on a sprinkler head during spring training. Saunders returned strong this year, becoming the first Canadian player to hit three homers in a game for a Canadian team and an first All-Star for the first time.Jonathan SchoopOrioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop made back-to-back trips to the LLWS, playing for the Pabao Little League from Curacao that represented the Caribbean Region in 2003 and 2004. He and his team lost in the semis in 2003 and won the whole thing the next year. Schoop, then 11 and all of 5-foot-3, went 10-for-19 with a .526 batting average, with three doubles, seven runs scored and four RBIs.Schoop, who batted third, and played shortstop and pitcher, shared his favorite memory of the LLWS with ESPN.coms Eddie MatzIn the semifinals in 2004, we were losing to Chinese Taipei 8-4 in the last inning, and came back. I got a base hit to tie the game, said Schoop. Then I came on in extra innings to pitch. I struck out all three batters, and then the next inning I got another base hit to win the game. That was the best.Devon TravisLong before he homered in his major league debut (with the Blue Jays on April 6), Devon Travis went deep in the Little League World Series, propelling his Boynton Beach, Florida, team past Saugus, Massachussets, and on to the 2003 world championship game against Japan. And even after Travis and his team lost 10-1 in the LLWS finale against Tokyos Musashi-Fuchu All-Stars, they celebrated on the field with their opponents. We were just little boys playing the game we loved, Travis, Boyntons second baseman and catcher, told the Palm Beach Post in 2013.Travis led off his major league career with similar enthusiasm -- and success. He was named the AL rookie of the month for April after batting .325/.393/.625 with 6 home runs, 17 runs scored, and 19 RBIs for the month before shoulder injuries relegated him to the DL. https://www.cheapairmax1store.com/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Nike Air Max 1 2022 .

SAO PAULO -- Matildas coach Alen Stajcic doesnt believe in omens.And he hopes the rest of the Australian Olympic team dont either after his womens footballers opened the nations Rio campaign with a horror show.Not only did the first Australians in action at the Rio Games lose 2-0 to Canada.They also copped the fastest goal in Olympic womens football - 20 seconds.And conceded another when their goalkeeper was sprawled near the halfway line.All against a Canadian outfit who played 75 minutes with 10 players after a send off.Oh, and the result also means their next match against superpowers Germany becomes that much more important.Its not the start you want, is it, to an Olympic campaign, a grim-faced Stajcic said after Wednesdays demoralising defeat at Sao Paulos Arena Corinthians.The Matildas are removed from the rest of the Australian Olympic teams troubled preparation in Rio which has included a burning building. But they just may have burnt their Olympic bridge - in record time.In just 20 seconds, the Australians were a goal down.Laura Alleway sent a sluggish sideways pass towards her defensive counterpart Alanna Kennedy, who didnt sense snooping Canadian captain Christine Sinclair until too late.Sinclair intercepted, charged at goal, and arrowed a poised pass to teammate Janine Beckie who tapped in the gift from barely one metre out.The Australians then dominated - 11 shots to two by halftime - but couldnt score.Stajcic was more perplexed at Australias lacklustre second half when they failed to press their numerical advantage.I dont think the goal in the first minute was the decisive factor, Stajcic said.I think our second half performance for 45 minutes was the decisive factor in the result.We just lacked the creativity to be able to get in behind them ... we just werent good enough.We werent clever enough on the ball and lacked the creativity needed to break a defence like that down. I cant remember one chance in the second half, to be honest.Next up, an encounter against the dual World Cup-winning Germans in Sao Paulo on Saturday from 1800 (0700 AEST Sunday), before a last group game against Zimbabwe three days later.You have got to pick yourself up ... we havent spent one month (training) in Brazil to have a sulk now, Stajcic said.The top two teams from each of the three, four-team groups qualify for the knockout stages along with the two best-placed sides that finish third. https://www.packersrookiestore.com/Packers-Aaron-Jones-Jersey/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Aaron Jones Super Bowl Jersey .

CHICAGO -- Anthony Rizzo caught the ball for the final out and Wrigley Field erupted.Im sleeping with this thing tonight, the Chicago Cubs first baseman told the pulsating crowd moments later, kissing the prized souvenir. Are you kidding me? Were going to the World Series.Cubs ... World Series? Yes, the Cubbies!Next up, Game 1 in Cleveland.With fans chanting, singing and waving those Ws, shaking the century-old ballpark and jamming the streets of Wrigleyville, the Cubs celebrated a moment many of their faithful wondered whether they would ever see.Kyle Hendricks outpitched Clayton Kershaw, Rizzo and Willson Contreras homered early and the Cubs took their first pennant since 1945, beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0 Saturday night to win the NL Championship Series in six games.Listen to them. Outside before the game was crazy. Inside the game was crazy, Cubs pitcher Jon Lester said.These guys have done nothing but support us from Day One. Its been unbelievable to be here and be part of this. Words cant really describe where Im at right now, he said.Cursed by a Billy Goat, bedeviled by Bartman and crushed by decades of disappointment, those Lovable Losers now have a chance to win it all.Trying to win their first crown since 1908, manager Joe Maddons team opens the World Series against Cleveland on Tuesday night.The Indians havent won it all since 1948 -- Cleveland and Cubs have the two longest title waits in the majors.This city deserves it so much, Rizzo said. We got four more big ones to go, but were going to enjoy this. Were going to the World Series. I cant even believe that.All-everything Javier Baez and Lester shared the NLCS MVP. Baez hit .318, drove in five runs and made several sharp plays at second base. Lester, a former World Series champion in Boston, was 1-0 with a 1.38 ERA in two starts against the Dodgers.The drought ended when Aroldis Chapman got Yasiel Puig to ground into a double play , setting off a wild celebration. And if they bring home the elusive championship?I may make the `W a tattoo, said chairman Tom Ricketts , who once lived across the street and met his wife in the bleachers.Deemed World Series favorites since opening day, the Cubs topped the majors with 103 wins to win the NL Central, then beat the Giants and Dodgers in the playoffs.The Cubs overcame a 2-1 deficit against the Dodgers and won their 17th pennant. They had not earned a World Series trip since winning a doubleheader opener 4-3 at Pittsburgh on Sept. 29, 1945, to clinch the pennant on the next-to-last day of the season.The eternal wait till next year is over. No more dwelling on a history of failure -- the future is now.Were too young. We dont care about it, star slugger Kris Bryant said. We dont look into it. This is a new team, this is a completely different time of our lives. Were enjoying it and our works just getting started.Hendricks pitched two-hit ball for 7 1/3 inninngs .dddddddddddd Chapman took over and closed with hitless relief, then threw both arms in the air as he was mobbed by teammates and coaches.The Dodgers sent the minimum 27 batters to the plate and no one got past first base.The Cubs shook off back-to-back shutout losses earlier in this series by pounding the Dodgers for 23 runs to win the final three games.And they were in no way overwhelmed by the moment on Saturday, putting aside previous frustration.In the 1945 Series, the Billy Goat Curse supposedly began when a tavern owner wasnt allowed to bring his goat to Wrigley. In 2003, the Cubs lost the final three games of the NLCS to Florida, punctuated with a Game 6 defeat when fan Steve Bartman deflected a foul ball.Even as recently as 2012, the Cubs lost 101 times.This time, no such ill luck.Bryant had an RBI single and scored in a two-run first . Dexter Fowler added two hits, drove in a run and scored one.Contreras led off the fourth with a homer.Rizzo continued his resurgence with a solo drive in the fifth.That was plenty for Hendricks, the major league ERA leader.Hendricks left to a standing ovation after Josh Reddick singled with one out in the eighth. The only other hit Hendricks allowed was a single by Andrew Toles on the games first pitch.Kershaw, dominant in Game 2, gave up five runs and seven hits before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the sixth. He fell to 4-7 in the postseason.This day is never fun, the ending of a season, Kershaw said.The Dodgers havent been to the World Series since winning in 1988.Pitching on five days rest, Kershaw needed 30 pitches to get through the first. Fowler led off with a double against the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner, and Bryants single had the crowd shaking the 102-year-old ballpark.Fans had more to cheer when left fielder Andrew Toles dropped Rizzos fly, putting runners on second and third, and Ben Zobrist made it 2-0 a sacrifice fly.The Cubs added a run in the second when Addison Russell doubled to deep left and scored on a two-out single by Fowler.LINEUP SHUFFLEMaddon benched slumping right fielder Jason Heyward in favor of Albert Almora Jr.Kershaws pitching, so I wanted to get one more right-handed bat in the lineup, and also with Albert I dont feel like were losing anything on defense, Maddon said. I know Jasons a Gold Glover, but I think Albert, given an opportunity to play often enough would be considered a Gold Glove-caliber outfielder, too.Heyward was 2 for 28 in the playoffs -- 1 for 16 in the NLCS.SEENKerry Wood, wearing a Ron Santo jersey, threw out the first pitch and actor Jim Belushi delivered the Play Ball! call before the game. Pearl Jam front man Eddie Vedder and actor John Cusack were also in attendance. And Bulls great Scottie Pippen led the seventh-inning stretch. ' ' '

NEW YORK -- The Yankees four-game set against the AL-leading Rangers started Monday with what Chase Headley called maybe the toughest loss of his career.On Wednesday, Texas was two outs from winning the first three games. And yet the series ended Thursday with New York somehow earning a split when Headley scampered home on a passed ball for his teams second straight victory in the bottom of the ninth.Headley just beat the throw with two outs for a 2-1 win. Four Yankees pitchers combined to strike out 16 Rangers -- 12 by starter Michael Pineda.Didi Gregorius, who had the winning home run hours earlier when the Yankees rallied from a four-run ninth-inning deficit Wednesday night, hit a solo shot in the fifth to tie the score. Shin-Soo Choo had homered to lead off the game.Reliever Tony Barnette (5-3) walked Headley to lead off the bottom of the ninth. With runners on second and third and two outs, Robinson Chirinos dropped a fastball from Barnette.Headley had been concerned that Chirinos might try to throw behind him, and when he saw the pitch wasnt low, he started to take a half-step back before he saw the ball squirt away.Once it got by, though, theres no going back, he said. You just hope that you make it.Chirinos said he knew which pitch was coming and its location.Its my fault, he said.Barnette blamed himself for the leadoff walk.Its unacceptable, he said. You walk a guy to start an inning, most of the time hes going to score.Aroldis Chapman (2-0) worked around Adrian Beltres leadoff single in the top of the ninth to earn the win.In what manager Joe Girardi called his best outing of the season, Pineda was sharp after a shaky first inning, when Choo crushed the fourth pitch of the game for his 18th career leadoff homer.Pineda struck out Rougned Odor with two runners on to prevent further damage, and he didnt allow a hit the rest of the way -- reaching what is a magical six-inning mark for Yankees starters because of their trio of hard-throwing relievers.Dellin Betances, Andrew Miller and Chapman each pitched a scoreless inning.After a rough start to the season, Pineda had a 2.75 ERA in June, though he has just one win to show for it because of a lack of run support.Like Pineda, Rangers starter A.J. Griffin cruised after laboring through the first. Both pitchers struck out the side in the second, and overall nine straight batters struck out from the bottom of the first through the top of the third.Griffin retired 12 in a row before Gregorius tying homer. Griffin departed after throwing 88 pitches in five innings. He allowed the one run and two hits with two walks and eight strikeouts.After Headleys walk in the ninth, Gregorius came up again with a chance to win it -- but this time he sacrificed, bunting Headley to second with one out. Aaron Hicks then walked.Starlin Castro, who hit a walk-off home run of his own eight days earlier, grounded out to first to put the runners on second and third with two outs.MOMENTUM SWINGOn Monday, the Yankees blew a ninth-inning lead after a 3 1/2-hour rain delay, and the game didnt end until 2:44 a.m. But now they start a 10-game road trip back at .500.Hopefully this is what really got us going, Girardi said.TRAINERS ROOMYankees: Carlos Beltran, who didnt start for the second straight game because of right hamstring tightness, can bat, but he cant run. He pinch-hit for No. 9 hitter Ronald Torreyes in the seventh, and after he walked, Castro, who didnt start with a day game after a night game, pinch-ran for him. Girardi is concerned about Beltrans ability to play the field during this weekends interleague series at San Diego and doesnt expect him to start Friday. ... C Brian McCann played a day game after a night game even though tendinitis in his knee flared up Wednesday.UP NEXTRangers: Texas continues its 10-game road trip with a three-game series at Minnesota, with LHP Martin Perez (7-4) seeking his seventh straight victory when he faces RHP Ervin Santana (2-7) on Friday.Yankees: New York opens a 10-game road trip with an interleague series at San Diego, when RHP Nathan Eovaldi (6-5) looks for his first win in more than a month in a matchup against RHP Colin Rea (4-3). https://www.cheapflames.com/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Custom Calgary Flames Jerseys . 10 VCU 85-67 on Thursday night at the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.

The Supreme Court has asked the Lodha Committee to re-examine the recommendation relating to the presence of two franchise representatives on the IPL Governing Council. The BCCI had strongly objected to the recommendation, saying that the presence of franchises representatives would amount to conflict of interest as the Governing Council takes influential decisions that directly affect the teams.The BCCI contends that the induction of the nominees from the franchisees is impermissible because important matters like players-retention policy, posting of umpires for IPL matches, etc are deliberated upon and decided by the Governing Council itself, the two-judge bench of the court said in its judgement on Monday, which made it mandatory for the BCCI to implement virtually all the recommendations proposed by the Lodha Committee. There is therefore an evident conflict of interest between the nominees of the IPL franchisees on the one hand and their role as members of the Governing Council on the other.In May, former BCCI president Shashank Manohar had expanded on why the BCCI felt the presence of the franchises nominees on the Governing Council amounted to clear conflict of interest. Manohar pointed out that one big reason the BCCI got itself embroiled in a slew of legal issues was the presence of former BCCI president N Srinivasan, the owner of Chennai Super Kings, on the IPL Governing Council. I should not judge on a matter when I have an interest in it. That is the basic rule of law, Manohar said.Having the franchise nominees on the Governing Council would amount to violating the principles of institutional integrity, the BCCI legal counsel had said during the court hearings.The objective of this particular recommendation, the Lodha committee had said, was to bring more independent voices to the Governing Council. The council, it said, should comprise of nine members: three ex-officio members (the BCCI secretary, treasurer, and the CEO), two representatives of the members of BCCI to be elected by the General Body, ttwo nominees of the franchises, one nominee who is the Comptroller and Auditor Generals representative on the Apex Council (the proposed body that would replace the Working Committee, the BCCIs highest decision-making body), and one nominee from the players association.dddddddddddd It was also recommended that the nominees of the franchises rotate annually.The court pointed out that independent voices was the objective, but contended that the Lodha Committee was not definitive on whether the IPL franchises needed to have a seat on the Governing Council. All that is said is that the Governing Council [so far] has denied any role to the franchisee companies, and that there is no independent voice in the Governing Council which is dominated by the full members of the BCCI and two former cricketers, the court said.The court did concede, however, that there was an element of conflict, as raised by Manohar and BCCI. The Committee does not appear to have addressed the question of conflict of interest in the event IPL franchisees place two nominees in the Governing Council. There is prima facie a possibility of conflict of interest arising out of [this]. Be that as it may, we do not consider it necessary to finally pronounce on this aspect, which can be better left to the Committee to re-examine in the light of what has been observed earlier.The court made it clear that if the Lodha Committee were to rule out the possibility of conflict of interest on re-examing the recommendation, it would accept it. We make it clear that if upon reconsideration of the matter the Committee takes a view that the induction of the nominees of the franchisees will not result in any conflict of interest, it shall be free to stick to its recommendations in which event the recommendations shall be deemed to have been accepted by this Court to be formalised and carried out in such manner as the Committee may decide.

NEW ORLEANS -- The trial date has been pushed back for the suspect in the shooting death of former New Orleans Saints star Will Smith.Jury selection for the second-degree murder trial of Cardell Hayes is now set for Dec. 1, with opening statements scheduled for Dec. 5.The trial was moved from Nov. 2 because a police officer expected to testify in the case will be out of the country.Hayes was arrested after Smith was shot to death following an automobile crash on April 9.Prosecutors say Hayes provoked a confrontation by ramming his SUV into one driven by Smith.The defense has argued that Smith was the aggressor and that Hayes fired in self-defense after Smith went to his own car to get his gun. https://www.cheapredwings.com/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Cheap Red Wings Jerseys .

PHILIP ISLAND, Australia -- Newly crowned world champion Marc Marquez will start in pole position in Sundays Australian Moto GP

PHILIP ISLAND, Australia -- Newly crowned world champion Marc Marquez will start in pole position in Sundays Australian Moto GP after brilliantly reading rainy conditions during qualifying on the Philip Island circuit.Marquez arrived in Australia after winning last weekends Japan round of the series to tie up the title with three rounds remaining. At 23, the Spaniard is the youngest rider to win the world title three times, surpassing Britains Mike Hailwood.Marquez chose the perfect moment to return to the circuit on slick tires Saturday to qualify seven tenths of a second faster than fellow Honda rider Cal Crutchlow.Pol Espargaro, who qualified almost a full second further back on a Yamaha, will complete the front row.This weekend has been really tricky with the weather conditions, Marquez said. You need to be fast, of course, but you need to have the correct strategy, too.At the moment were going out at the correct time with the correct tires every time and we were able to be on pole position.It was difficult to find the perfect lap but we did.Saturdays changeable weather conditions claimed a number of victims, including Italys Valentino Rossi who will start in 15th place in his worst qualifying performance since 2011.Fridays practice rounds were almost entirely lost to rain, forcing a packed schedule on Saturday which was further affected by unpredictable conditions. The track began to dry late in the first qualifying session and was dry at the start of second qualifying, though further rain was predicted.Many riders headed out on intermediates but Marquez was among the first to switch to slicks and his gamble paid off as he opened a 1.5 second lead before the remainder of the grid began to peg him back.Suzukis Aleix Espargaro had a strong second qualifying session to challenge for the front row but was just beaten over the line by his brother Pol and will start in fourth place.Australias Jack Miller finished fifth for his best-ever qualifying result.Nicky Hayden, riding in place of injured Dani Pedrosa, took seventh place on his return to MotoGP, ahead of Stefan Bradl who will be his teammate in 2017 on the Honda World Superbike Team. https://www.cheapavalanche.com/" class="TyTxtSmlC">Fake Avalanche Jerseys .

Blue-chip light heavyweight prospect Oleksandr Gvozdyk has been added to the HBO PPV card headlined by the junior welterweight world title unification bout between Terence Crawford and Viktor Postol on July 23 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Top Rank announced on Friday.Gvozdyk (10-0, 10 KOs), a 2012 Olympic bronze medalist from Ukraine and one of the top prospects in boxing, will take on Tommy Karpency in a scheduled 10-round bout.Gvozdyk, 29, was supposed to box Robert Berridge in an untelevised bout on Top Ranks card on July 16 in Lancaster, California, but he was moved to the pay-per-view card a week later against Karpency, a better-caliber opponent than Berridge.The opening on the pay-per-view telecast came about because super middleweight titlist Gilberto Zurdo Ramirez tore the tendon around the knuckle of his middle finger on his right hand during a sparring session on Tuesday, forcing his first defense against Dominik Britsch to be canceled. That fight was supposed to be the co-feature on the July 23 card.So the vacant featherweight world title bout between Oscar Valdez (19-0, 17 KOs) and Matias Adrian Rueda (26-0, 23 KOs) was elevated to the co-feature position, welterweights Jose Benavidez Jr. (24-0, 16 KOs) and Francisco Chia Santana (24-4-1, 12 KOs) will meet in a 10-rounder and Gvozdyk-Karpency will open the broadcast.Karpency, a 30-yyear-old southpaw from Adah, Pennsylvania, has faced several quality opponents, including in a pair of light heavyweight world title bouts.ddddddddddddTwo fights ago, last September, Karpency got knocked out in the third round by world champion Adonis Stevenson, and in 2012 he lost a shutout decision to then-titleholder Nathan Cleverly.In October 2014, Karpency scored the biggest win of his career, a 10-round split decision in a major upset against faded former light heavyweight world champion Chad Dawson.Top Rank wants to measure Gvozdyks performance against how Karpency (26-5-1, 15 KOs) did with other quality opponents while also getting him his first major television exposure.My matchmakers say this is a real test for Gvozdyk, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com. Karpency was the best opponent we could get on short notice, but we were told he was training for another fight. So this is a good test for Gvozdyk to prove to us that he is as good as we think he is.Ramirez (34-0, 24 KOs), meantime, underwent what Top Rank and adviser Sean Gibbons termed successful surgery to repair his torn tendon on Friday in Los Angeles. According to surgeon Dr. Steven Shin, Ramirez is expected to be out of action for five months. ' ' '

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Dabo Swinney has been on the right side of the Clemson-South Carolina matchup enough times to know how good things are when you win.Theres no question that theres a little different smiles on peoples faces when you show up, Swinney joked.Especially, if the fourth-ranked Tigers (10-1, No. 4 CFP) can win their third straight game against the revived Gamecocks (6-5) on Saturday night. A win moves Clemson a step closer to a second consecutive berth in the College Football Playoffs. A loss most likely leaves the Tigers on the outside of the four-team tournament and pondering all that couldve been.Its a huge game for all of us, Clemson tight end Jordan Leggett said.And maybe not as easy as it looked in midseason.South Carolina has found its stride behind freshman quarterback Jake Bentley, whos play has helped the Gamecocks win four of their past five games to qualify for a bowl in coach Will Muschamps first season.A Gamecocks win, the players know too well, would rank among the most consequential victories in series history.Receiver Deebo Samuel said the second-half run this season has South Carolina fired up for success.Were going out there with a little more energy trying to ruin their season, Samuel said.Clemson has played into that narrative at home too often this season. There have been way-too-close wins over Troy and North Carolina State at Death Valley. Two weeks ago, the Tigers were stung by Pittsburgh on a last-second field goal in a 43-42 defeat, their first home loss since 2013.Swinney and the Tigers have said all the right things since then, that they paid a price for comfort and complacency. The Gamecocks hope time hasnt run out to take advantage of Clemsons mistakes.Are our guys going to be excited about playing this game? Absolutely, because of the rivalry, because its Clemson, because theyve got a good football team, Muschamp said. Thats all great, but we need to be able to walk out in between the white lines and be motivated by our preparation.---Some other things to watch when No. 4 Clemson plays South Carolina:WATSONS FAREWELL: Clemson quarterback Deshauun Watson is expected to play in final game in Death Valley, the junior considered a pro prospect that will go high in next springs NFL draft.dddddddddddd Watson, though, has not discussed his future, saying that will come at a more appropriate time. Who knows whats going to happen, he said.BENTLEY BALL: South Carolina has a freshman quarterback in Jake Bentley making a big splash, sort of like Watson did as a freshman in this rivalry two years ago. In that game, Deshaun Watson accounted for four touchdowns in a 35-17 Tigers win, playing on a torn ACL. A healthy Bentley will be seeking to snap Clemsons two game rivalry win streak. Hes thrown for nearly 1,000 yards and six TDs in his five starts.FACING THE TIGERS: Will Muschamp played for Georgia from 1991-93, a stretch that included a 27-12 upset of eventual ACC champion Clemson. It was a big upset in Athens, Muschamp said with a smile. We didnt play them again until (1994) at our place. Or their place. Georgias place. Not our place anymore.DOWDLES SUCCESS: Tailback Rico Dowdle has been a big reason why South Carolinas offense has improved the second half of the season. Dowdle has run for 100 yards or more in three of the past four games, including 226 in a win over Western Carolina last week. For the Gamecocks to succeed, Dowdle will need to make yards against Clemsons defense, which has limited opponents to 129 yards rushing a game this season.SAME AS THE IRON BOWL: Dabo Swinney, the former Alabama receiver and assistant coach, said theres little difference between the Iron Bowl and Clemsons rivalry with South Carolina, other than Alabama and Auburn sharing the same SEC division. Swinney said Clemson and South Carolina have the same fire and passion for the game as in the state of Alabama. Youve got to choose, he said of fans in the state. Who are you pulling for because I need to know because its going to determine if we talk this week or ever again.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '

Ferguson had TD passes of 50, 4, 20 and 21 yards before halftime and Darrell Henderson returned a kickoff 99-yards for a touchdown.Doroland Dorceus carried it 14 times for 77 yards -- with a long of 55 -- and one touchdown for Memphis (6-3, 3-2 American Athletic Conference). Anthony Miller had his fifth 100-yard receiving game of the year with 102 yards.

Billy Slater came achingly close to playing in Melbournes NRL grand final, with his surgeon almost giving him the green light.The superstar fullback was hopeful of being cleared to play in the Storms charge through the finals with his troublesome shoulder feeling good.But Storm football manager Frank Ponissi said the surgeon decided to err on the side of caution with the 33-year-old, who had a second reconstruction after round one in March.He went to see his surgeon last month because he was feeling great within himself and had started training so he decided to ask the question, Ponissi told SEN radio on Tuesday.The surgeon gave him a glowing report but stopped short of giving him the green light to play in September this year.It would have been an interesting selection dilemma for Craig (Bellamy).While Bellamy wants Slater to play on next year, it would have been very tough to shift Cameron Munster out of the No.1 jersey.Munster is set to play five-eighth next season following the departure of Blake Green to Manly, but has proved himself one of the games most best fullbacks in Slaters absence.He was one of the Storms best in their preliminary final win over CCanberra, setting up their crucial second-half try.ddddddddddddSlater can take some credit for that with Munster, playing in his first grand final, saying the veteran was happy to give him and his fellow backs advice.He said Slater was in the changeroom at halftime against Canberra, fine-tuning their play.Munster, 22, said Slater had an eye for pin-pointing the little things in our game that make a big difference.Whenever Bills got an opinion everyone listens and respects it because his call is usually the right one, Munster said.He helped us a lot on the weekend, coming in and telling us what he sees at the back.Im going to be looking for him to help me out a bit in the grand final because its going to be a big stage with a lot of emotion and hes more than happy to help out the team so Im very lucky to have him around me.Despite competing for same position, Munster said he wished Slater was in the line-up.All the boys would love him to be playing, including me, he said.Id be grateful to be playing alongside Billy in a grand final.

LAHAINA, Hawaii -- Georgetown was at its best in the first half, playing aggressive defense, feeding the hot hand of Rodney Pry

Posted in IYH Forums by jokergreen0220 at 22:43, Feb 16 2020

LAHAINA, Hawaii -- Georgetown was at its best in the first half, playing aggressive defense, feeding the hot hand of Rodney Pryor.The Hoyas were at their worst to start the second half, failing stops or shots to drop.Rather than folding, as they had in the past, the Hoyas gritted out a victory over a tough opponent.Pryor had 26 points and 10 rebounds, and Georgetown withstood a furious second-half rally to hold on for a 65-61 victory over No. 13 Oregon on Monday in the first round of the Maui Invitational.In the second half they came out and threw some blows, said Pryor, who had 18 points by halftime. We didnt get early stops that we needed and they got back into the game. But then we were able to take a deep breath, get some stops and get some baskets.Georgetown (1-2) led by 17 after a superb first half, capped by Pryors running 3-pointer at the buzzer. The Ducks (2-2) swarmed their way back, using pressure defense to create turnovers and easy baskets in transition.Unlike their loss to Maryland last week, the Hoyas weathered the Duck storm and will advance to the second round against No. 16 Wisconsin.LJ Peak added 17 points and hit two free throws with 2.7 seconds left to seal Georgetowns victory.Our guys did a good job not getting dejected and refocusing, Hoyas coach John Thompson III said.Oregon struggled the entire first half despite having leader Dillon Brooks in the lineup for the first time this season. The Ducks clawed their way back behind pressure defense, though didnt have enough to finish it off.Payton Pritchard led Oregon with 18 points. Brooks had eight points, including a long 3-pointer with 3.8 seconds left to get the Ducks within 2.As great a comeback as it was, we werent tough enough to finish it, Oregon coach Dana Altman said.Brooks didnt play in Oregons first three games while recovering from offseason foot surgery and Altman said he would limit the preseason All-Americans minutes in Maui.Brooks entered Mondays game about five minutes in with the Ducks struggling.He didnt do much to help them.Oregon needed six minutes to hit its first field goal and kept missing shots, going 7 for 29 from the floor in the first half. Brooks was 0 for 3 and did not score.The Hoyas had their own problems early, but rallied behind Pryor. He hit two step-back 3-pointers late in the first half and closed it with a running, off-balance 3 at the buzzer to put Georgetown up 38-21.Give them credit. They came out fast and we made some mistakes at the start of the game, so we have to limit those, Oregon guard Casey Benson said.Second half, roles reversed.After solving Oregons extended pressure defense in the first half, the Hoyas couldnt shake it in the second.Georgetown missed its first 12 shots and the Ducks went on a 22-4 run to go up by one.Georgetown fought back, turning up its defensive pressure and used a 10-2 run to go up 53-45 with 3 minutes leftOregon tried to make a late run, but came up short.BIG PICTUREThe Hoyas showed off their inconsistencies in yet another game, but found a win to win this one after losing the previous two.The Ducks got their leader back, but still have plenty of work to do if theyre going to live up to the high preseason expectations. Perimeter shooting is a concern; Oregon went 4 for 17 from the 3-point arc after hitting 3 of 21 in a loss to Baylor.POLL IMPLICATIONSDepending on what happens the next two days in Maui, the Ducks could be looking at a precipitous fall in the poll, possibly even out of it altogether.BROOKS RETURNAltman stuck to his plan to limited Brooks minutes, only giving him 13 against the Hoyas. Brooks was superb on the defensive end, particularly on the press in the second half, and finishing 3 of 8 shooting.We held him to the 10 to 15 minutes that we thought wed play him, Altman said. And he was mad because he wanted to play more.UP NEXTGeorgetown will face No. 16 Wisconsin in Tuesdays winners bracket.Oregon faces Tennessee in the losers bracket on Tuesday.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Make room for more than one Ohio State?player in the Heisman Trophy conversation.After offering an endorsement for quarterback J.T. Barrett as a candidate over the weekend, Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer added a second to the mix by throwing H-back Curtis Samuel into the discussion after his explosive, multipurpose start to the season.Meyer backed both Barrett and Samuel as legitimate candidates after No. 2 Ohio State steamrolled Rutgers in its Big Ten opener Saturday, comparing the talented tandem to former Heisman winner Tim Tebow and versatile sidekick Percy Harvin during his tenure at Florida.I think its a little harder at that position to get it, the H-back, Meyer said. But he certainly is having that kind of year that he should be in the conversation.... I remember in 2008 we had Tim Tebow and Percy Harvin. I think Tim won it in 2007 and finished [third] in 08, but Percy was right there as well and should have been. I cant remember where he finished or if he even got votes and all that, but I remember that coonversation came up as well.ddddddddddddHarvin didnt wind up finishing among the top 10 in that race, but Samuels success in the famed H-back position made famous by the former Florida star might give him a chance to attract some votes.The Buckeyes have steadily expanded Samuels role on offense, lining him up as a receiver, utilizing him as a running back and even snapping him the football directly as a Wildcat quarterback.The junior leads the Big Ten in all-purpose yardage without the benefit of returning kickoffs or punts, averaging 168.3 yards per game that is nearly split exactly between rushing and receiving while adding five touchdowns.Samuels versatility has combined with Barretts command of the offense to help Ohio State rank third in the nation with 57 points per game, and its also earned both of them the highest praise Meyer can offer in the race for college footballs top individual honor.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Clay Matthews appears ready to return to the field for the Green Bay Packers after the long-haired linebacke

Posted in IYH Forums by jokergreen0220 at 22:43, Feb 16 2020

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Clay Matthews appears ready to return to the field for the Green Bay Packers after the long-haired linebacker sat out another game with a hamstring injury.Matthews was just a spectator for last weeks loss in Atlanta . The decision was made out of an abundance of caution, especially given the Packers will play straight through the end of the regular season without a break following an early bye week.I think we didnt want a setback moving forward, Matthews said after practice on Thursday. Obviously feel much better this week, able to get more team reps, and feel good about what weve done thus far in the week. So, all indications are pointing to me being out there on Sunday.If Matthews plays against Indianapolis on Sunday, he could have a big day against the Colts and their questionable offensive line. Andrew Luck was sacked six times last week by the Kansas City Chiefs.In Matthews, the Packers (4-3) would get back one of their best pass rushers. He has three sacks in five games this season.Theres a trickle-down effect that could also have an impact on the banged-up secondary. Green Bay is without top cornerbacks Sam Shields (concussion) and Damarious Randall (groin). Quinten Rollins (groin) was limited in practice for a second straight week. Demetri Goodson hasnt practiced because hes in the concussion protocol.A healthy pass rush could make Luck force throws and make him uncomfortable in the pocket.Im not sure what the status is on (Rollins) this week, but you know were short-handed on the back end.

BRUSSELS -- Belgium scored the fastest goal in World Cup qualifying history when Christian Benteke slotted home against Gibraltar after only seven seconds Monday.The previous record since detailed timing was kept was held by San Marinos Davide Gualtieri, who needed 8 seconds to score the opener against England in a 1993 qualifier.Perhaps most amazing was that Gibraltar had the kickoff. Passing back, Benteke robbed the ball immediately after two touches, drove forward and scored with a cross-goal drive.The most important thing was to score early, said Benteke, who went on to score two more goals in a 6-0 win which kept Belgium perfect atop Group H with nine points.It was not the fastest goal in all competitions since some clubs have scored right at the kickoff with a huge high drive which caught a goalkeeper off his line.By halftime, Belgium was leading 3-0, with Axel Witsel and Benteke also scoring.Belgium is second in the FIFA rankings while Gibraltar is last at 205, together with six other nations.The game was played in a near empty stadium in Faro, Portugal, almost 400 kilometers (250 miles) away from Gibraltar, which does not have a stadium that meets international standards.Gibraltar is playing its first World Cup qualifying campaign after gaining FIFA membership in May.

A court official said last week that three search warrants had been issued, but none of them had been returned, meaning they werent yet public.
