| More Perry Memorial magic Mon, 02 Jun 2008 04:02:00 EST Kenny Perry's sole purpose on the PGA Tour this year is to go home to Kentucky for the Ryder Cup. He took a big step yesterday by winning on a course that feels like home. "Magic always happens for me here," Perry said after closing with a 3-under-par 69 to pull away from the pack for a two-shot victory at the Memorial. |

| Bruce still the boss as Reds sweep Mon, 02 Jun 2008 03:09:00 EST Ken Griffey Jr. couldn't get the big homer in his hometown but came away smiling anyway. Jay Bruce has that effect. Griffey remained one homer shy of 600, but Bruce completed his amazing debut week with a solo homer and an RBI single that led the Cincinnati Reds over the Atlanta Braves 6-2 yesterday. |

| Bat Cats lose to Arizona after beating Michigan Mon, 02 Jun 2008 01:58 EDT ANN ARBOR, Mich. . One up and one down added up to nothing for Kentucky's post-season baseball journey. The Wildcats emerged from the losers' bracket by eliminating Michigan 12-6 Sunday afternoon. But Arizona's top-seeded Wildcats ousted UK Sunday night, 5-3, to win the NCAA Baseball Regional at Michigan's Ray Fisher Stadium. Arizona advances to next weekend's best-of-three Super Regional against top-ranked Miami (Fla.). |
| Lexington's hot bats spoil Jones' return Mon, 02 Jun 2008 01:30 EDT When friends and family members of Kentucky native Nathan Jones discovered he might be pitching at Applebee's Park for the Kannapolis Intimidators-Lexington Legends series, they snatched up the tickets by the hundreds. Cheerleaders from Jones' former high school, Pendleton County, bought more than 300 tickets for the weekend's games for Jones supporters. An additional 100-plus bought tickets on their own. Most of Jones' fans didn't even know when or if he would pitch this weekend when they purchased the tickets. Once word got out that Jones would get the nod on Sunday, it appeared his fans had picked the right day to see him pitch. Turns out it was the wrong time to face the Legends. Facing a resurgent Lexington offense, Jones was tagged for five runs (three earned) in three innings of work. A team that was nearly dormant at the plate a week ago, Lexington continued its three-day stretch of hot hitting in its 7-6 win over Kannapolis, spoiling Jones' return to the Bluegrass. |
| Nadal improves to 25-0 at French Open Mon, 02 Jun 2008 04:05 EDT When an inconsequential point went against Rafael Nadal during his most recent French Open victory, he gave his opponent a how-dare-you glare, then resumed the rout. It's easy to understand why Nadal would expect everything to go his way at Roland Garros, because it usually does. On Sunday the three-time defending champion returned to the quarterfinals by beating fellow Spaniard Fernando Verdasco 6-1, 6-0, 6-2. "I wish all my matches were like this one," Nadal said. The win was his most lopsided yet at Roland Garros, where he's 25-0. He had lost at least six games in each previous match. Seeded second behind Roger Federer, Nadal is bidding to become the first man since Bjorn Borg in 1981 to win a fourth consecutive French Open title. On Tuesday - Nadal's 22nd birthday - he'll play yet another Spaniard, childhood chum Nicolas Almagro, who beat Jeremy Chardy 7-6 (0), 7-6 (7), 7-5. |
| Church, Beltran homer to help Santana to 100th win Mon, 02 Jun 2008 04:56 EDT Johan Santana pitched into the eighth inning to earn his 100th win, Carlos Beltran and Ryan Church each hit a two-run homer and the suddenly surging New York Mets beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-1 Sunday night. Back in the lineup after his second concussion this year, Church capped a five-run third with his shot to right. He finished with a double and three hits for the Mets (28-27), who took three of four from the Dodgers in manager Joe Torre's return to New York, winning consecutive series for the first time since mid-April. Matt Kemp had three hits and drove in the only run for Los Angeles, which heads home after winning just once on a seven-game trip. The Dodgers are 3-22 when scoring three runs or fewer, and have been held to one run or less in six of their last 10 games. New York has won five of six, the run following manager Willie Randolph's much-publicized meeting with ownership last Monday. The Mets have a good chance of keeping their momentum going, too. Next up is a trip to San Francisco and San Diego, who are a combined 47-68. Pedro Martinez is slated to make his second start of the season Tuesday night against the Giants. |
| Briscoe gets IndyCar win Mon, 02 Jun 2008 04:36 EDT Ryan Briscoe drove through the smoke and found a little bit of redemption. For a moment on Sunday at the Milwaukee Mile, it seemed the new Team Penske driver would wind up watching his crashed IndyCar being towed to the paddock for the fourth time in the first six races this season. Not this time. The 23-year-old Australian held off a late charge from Indianapolis 500 champion Scott Dixon, avoided the late-race accident - barely - and gave team owner Roger Penske his 300th racing win. Four laps from the end of the ABC Supply A.J. Foyt 225, the track ahead of Briscoe was enveloped in smoke and all he could do was hit the brakes hard and hope. |
| Kyle Busch wins 4th Cup race this season at Dover Mon, 02 Jun 2008 04:36 EDT Kyle Busch revels in his role as NASCAR's villain. He enjoys his role as the top driver so much more. Busch was simply sensational again, dominating the second half of the 400-mile race Sunday at Dover International Speedway and racing to his Sprint Cup series-best fourth win of the season. Busch made it 10 victories total this season, including two in the Craftsman Truck Series and four in the Nationwide Series. He won for the third time in the last five Cup races. "It was definitely a great race for us there," Busch said. "We didn't have the car to beat today." And when the Joe Gibbs Racing driver doesn't find himself in Victory Lane at the end of a Cup race, he's pretty close: Busch earned his fifth straight top-three finish and hasn't finished outside of the top 10 in any of the last seven races. Team owner Joe Gibbs was in the middle of the celebration on pit road while Busch took a bow from his No. 18 Toyota and saluted his crew. |
| Haas stays hot, repeats as Principal Charity winner Sun, 01 Jun 2008 22:21 EDT A week after winning the season's first major, Jay Haas rallied with a six-under 65 to repeat as champion at The Principal Charity Classic. Haas, who won the Senior PGA Championship last week, finished at 10-under-par 203, which was good for a one-shot win over Andy Bean. "I thought I'd need something at least 65 or even lower," admitted Haas, who picked up $258,750 to move to the top of the money list. "I thought it was a pretty good day to score. There wasn't much wind. I thought someone ahead of me might go nuts." This was the third time Haas won back-to-back starts and the victory also moved him to the top of the Charles Schwab Cup points list. The title was the 12th on the Champions Tour for Haas. Bean closed with a four-under 67 to finish alone in second at minus-nine. |
| LSU's outgoing AD Skip Bertman hospitalized Sun, 01 Jun 2008 21:16 EDT LSU's outgoing athletic director and former national championship baseball coach Skip Bertman was hospitalized Saturday with what doctors believed were early signs of a heart attack. LSU sports spokesman Herb Vincent said the 70-year-old Bertman was resting comfortably after doctors placed a stent in one of the main arteries carrying blood from the heart. Bertman was on campus earlier Saturday working in his office and began to feel discomfort after driving home to get ready for LSU's NCAA regional game against Southern Mississippi on Saturday night, which LSU won 13-4. "He wasn't feeling well, so he just decided to go to the hospital," Vincent said. Bertman's wife, Sandy, drove him to the hospital and notified LSU athletics officials of her husband's condition later Saturday night. |
| Soriano, Edmonds help Cubs close 7-0 homestand Sun, 01 Jun 2008 20:01 EDT Alfonso Soriano homered, Jim Edmonds drove in two runs and the Chicago Cubs beat the reeling Colorado Rockies 5-3 on Sunday to complete a perfect seven-game homestand. The Cubs entered June with the best record in baseball for the first time since 1908, when they last won a World Series. They started the new month by finishing a four-game sweep of the defending National League champions and sending them to their seventh straight loss. Chicago is 26-8 at Wrigley Field after wrapping up its first perfect homestand of at least seven games since April 14-26, 1970. Edmonds tripled off the center-field wall in the second, drove an RBI double off the ivy in left in the fourth and walked with the bases loaded in the fifth to make it 4-2. Soriano made it 5-3 with a solo shot in the sixth - his 13th homer of the season and his second in as many games. Aramis Ramirez added two singles and a double as the Cubs (36-21) matched their longest win streak since they won seven straight from June 22-29. The injury-plagued Rockies are on their worst slide since they dropped eight in a row over that same span, and they're showing no signs of a turnaround. They're 20-37 after their 16th loss in 21 games and are 17 games below .500 for the first time since they finished the 2005 season at 67-95. |
| Lewis, Giants rally to beat Padres in 10 innings Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:56 EDT Pinch-hitter Fred Lewis hit a two-run, game-tying triple off Trevor Hoffman in the 10th inning and scored the winning run on Jose Castillo's infield single as the San Francisco Giants avoided a sweep by beating the San Diego Padres 4-3 on Sunday. San Diego had taken a 3-1 lead when Adrian Gonzalez hit a two-run homer in the top half of the inning against Alex Hinshaw (1-0) and appeared on its way to its season-high fourth straight win. But Hoffman (0-4) was unable to hold the lead, blowing his third save of the season and first since April 23. Ray Durham and Brian Horwitz opened the 10th with singles and advanced on a sacrifice bunt by Omar Vizquel. Lewis then hit a drive high off the brick wall in right-center field to score both runners and tie the game. Lewis had been 0-for-8 with four strikeouts as a pinch-hitter before that hit. Hoffman intentionally walked Randy Winn and ran the count full to Castillo. With the infield playing for a double play, Winn broke on the pitch and Castillo hit a grounder to shortstop Edgar Gonzalez. |
| Tigers score 4 runs in 9th to stun Mariners 7-5 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:56 EDT Placido Polanco hit a tiebreaking single and the Detroit Tigers scored four times in the ninth inning off struggling J.J. Putz to beat the Seattle Mariners 7-5 Sunday. Magglio Ordonez and Miguel Cabrera each drove in two runs as Detroit, wayward for most of the season against everyone else, won for the fifth time in six games against Seattle this year. Putz (2-3) began the ninth by striking out Ivan Rodriguez but then walked Brandon Inge, the No. 9 hitter. Curtis Granderson singled him to third, and Inge scored on a bloop single by Polanco to give Detroit its third lead of the game, 4-3. That ended a scoreless streak of 18 2-3 innings by the Mariners' bullpen. With two outs, Ordonez hit a hard one-hopper off the glove of third baseman Adrian Beltre for an infield single as Granderson scored. Cabrera sent most of the crowd of 38,610 home early with a two-run double, his second double of the day. |
| Griffey stuck at 599 as Reds roll past Braves 6-2 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:51 EDT Ken Griffey Jr. remained one homer shy of 600, but Jay Bruce had a solo shot and a run-scoring single Sunday, completing his amazing debut week and leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 6-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves. Rookie right-hander Johnny Cueto (4-5) returned to his first-game form, allowing only a bunt single through the first six innings against a team that can't do anything right on the road. Mark Teixeira and Brian McCann homered off Cueto in the seventh, but the comeback stopped there - again. The Braves have been nearly unbeatable at Turner Field, going 22-7. Away from home, it's nearly the identical opposite. Atlanta is 7-21 on the road, where it has lost its last 20 one-run games since August. Atlanta wound up swept in Cincinnati for the first time since September 1996. |
| Ramirez hits No. 501, leads Red Sox past Orioles Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:46 EDT Manny Ramirez hit his 501st home run, Mike Lowell and J.D. Drew also connected, and the Boston Red Sox continued their hitting revival at the expense of the Baltimore Orioles in a 9-4 victory Sunday. After becoming the 24th major leaguer to hit No. 500, Ramirez said Saturday night, "The next goal is 501." He took care of that item of business in his third at-bat, driving a 1-0 pitch from Brian Burres into the right-field seats to put Boston up 6-3 in the fourth inning. Lowell homered two pitches later, and the Red Sox were on their way to making it three straight wins over the skidding Orioles. Boston on Monday will seek its first four-game sweep in Baltimore since 2002. Playing designated hitter for injured David Ortiz (sprained wrist), Ramirez went 3-for-5, drove in three runs and scored twice. He has homered in consecutive games after hitting only three in 34 games during his quest for 500. Drew, who missed two straight starts because of vertigo, had two hits and three RBIs. Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits and a stolen base, his seventh steal in the series. |
| A's score 9 in 7th to outslug Rangers for 13-8 win Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:41 EDT Jack Cust and Mark Ellis homered in a nine-run seventh inning as the Oakland Athletics rallied for a 13-8 victory over the Texas Rangers on Sunday to end their four-game losing streak. Texas slugger Josh Hamilton hit his AL-best 15th homer and drove in two runs, giving him a major league-high 63 RBIs. Milton Bradley also homered and drove in three runs for the Rangers, who held a 7-4 lead after starter Scott Feldman gave up four runs and four hits in six innings. But the first eight Oakland hitters reached base in the seventh against three pitchers before Texas' bullpen could register an out. Cust's two-run shot, Jack Hannahan's two-run double, Bobby Crosby's two-run single and Ellis' solo shot highlighted the A's biggest inning of the season. Jamey Wright (3-2) was charged with four runs, Robinson Tejeda was tagged with three and Frank Francisco gave up two more in the seventh for the Rangers. |
| Twins' Blackburn hit in nose by Abreu's line drive Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:41 EDT His face just hit by a line drive, Nick Blackburn flung his arms out and flopped on the turf in front of the mound. The Minnesota Twins feared the worst, and so did Bobby Abreu - whose powerful swing produced that liner with one out in the fifth inning of Sunday's game between Minnesota and the New York Yankees. But the rookie right-hander quickly rose to his feet and walked off the field on his own, a towel pressed to his face to keep the blood from spurting out of his nose. The damage was minimal: a bruised nose and upper lip. "We're very lucky," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said after Minnesota's 5-1 win. Blackburn knew it. |
| B.J. Ryan blows save as Angels beat Blue Jays 4-3 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:37 EDT Toronto closer B.J. Ryan hit Howie Kendrick with a pitch to force home the tying run in the ninth inning, and Maicer Izturis singled home the game-winner one delivery later to give the Los Angeles Angels a 4-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday. All four of the Angels' victories on this six-game homestand were walk-off wins, including Saturday night's 3-2 triumph, when pinch-hitter Juan Rivera ended it with an RBI single. The other two dramatic wins came against Detroit. Ryan's first blown save in 13 attempts this season spoiled a masterful performance by A.J. Burnett, who allowed two runs and three hits over eight innings and was pulled by manager John Gibbons after 102 pitches. Burnett struck out eight and walked three. One of the hits off the right-hander was a two-run homer in the third by Sean Rodriguez, his first in the major leagues. It was the eighth time in Burnett's last nine starts that he has allowed fewer than four earned runs. Vladimir Guerrero and Torii Hunter greeted Ryan (1-1) with singles, putting runners at the corners. Guerrero was tagged out in a rundown on Casey Kotchman's grounder to first, but stayed in it long enough for the other runners to advance to second and third. |
| Hudson backs Haren with homer as D'backs top Nats Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:01 EDT Dan Haren tossed seven sharp innings, Orlando Hudson hit a three-run homer and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Washington Nationals 5-0 on Sunday. Hudson's homer, his second in three days and sixth of the season, came in the first inning and gave Haren (6-4) all the support he would need against the NL's weakest-hitting club. Haren gave up four hits, walked three and struck out five. The Diamondbacks have posted back-to-back shutouts for the first time since May 26-27, 2006, at Cincinnati. Brandon Webb beat the Nationals 4-0 on Saturday. Chad Tracy added a solo homer for the Diamondbacks, who salvaged the final two games of a six-game homestand. The Diamondbacks were relieved to see June arrive. They went 11-17 in May but lost only a half-game of their lead in the feeble NL West, where every other team entered Sunday with a losing record. |
| 5 Red Wings players 1 win from 4th Stanley Cup Sun, 01 Jun 2008 18:26 EDT Nicklas Lidstrom's feet rested inches away from the winged wheel logo on the floor of the Detroit dressing room, a veritable shrine to the storied history of the Original Six franchise. Pictures of Gordie Howe and Ted Lindsay and all the Red Wings greats of the past adorn the walls along with a row of Stanley Cups depicting the franchise's 10 championship seasons. Lidstrom will one day join that elite group, but for now he is a proud member of a gang of five that own three Stanley Cup rings with the Red Wings and are one win away from another. "It's nice when you've had a chance to win with the players of the past. You've got some great memories from back then, but you want to create new memories, too, with the same guys," Lidstrom said Sunday. "It's something we don't talk a whole lot about in here, but I think everybody has thought that in the back of their minds." Back in Detroit after a stirring 2-1 victory in Pittsburgh on Saturday night, the Red Wings gathered for what well could be their last off day before a championship parade. |
| Looper hits, pitches Cardinals past Pirates 7-4 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 18:06 EDT Braden Looper continued his torrid hitting to help earn himself a win in the St. Louis Cardinals 7-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. Looper had two singles, scored twice, and drove in a run to raise his batting average to .429 - tops among pitchers in the majors. On the mound, Looper (7-4) allowed eights hits and three runs in 5 2-3 innings. Ryan Franklin, the fifth Cardinals pitcher, got three outs for his sixth save in eight attempts. Skip Schumaker drove in a career-high three runs to help the Cardinals. Ian Snell (2-5) lost his fifth consecutive decision and is 0-5 in his last nine starts. His last win came on April 12. Snell pitched to one batter in the fifth before being lifted. He allowed six runs and eight hits. |
| Celtics' turnaround didn't start on lottery day Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:37 EDT This is not how the Boston Celtics planned to get back to the NBA finals. The league's luckiest franchise saw its luck run out - again - in the draft lottery last year, coming up with the worst possible pick and no shot at the megastars slotted 1-2. What the Celtics couldn't know at the time was that it was the best thing that could have happened. "We hit rock bottom with the lottery - as bad as we could do - and then Danny (Ainge) went to work," co-owner Bob Epstein said Sunday. "Not everything is a master plan. A lot of skill in any endeavor is being able to be opportunistic as well." The Celtics took advantage of their opportunities just fine after the lottery setback, landing Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen in trades that helped them reach the NBA finals for the first time since Ainge and the original Big Three made it there in 1987. Game 1 against the Los Angeles Lakers is Thursday night. In a series of interviews over the weekend, the owners who bought the team in 2002 explained the turnaround from 24-58 lottery loser to Eastern Conference champion. It didn't happen that night at the draft lottery, and it didn't even happen during the monthlong trading spree in which Ainge brought in Garnett and Allen to join with All-Star holdover Paul Pierce. |
| Wings' backup plan looks like a winner Mon, 02 Jun 2008 01:43 EDT DETROIT . Plan B has worked out pretty well for the Detroit Red Wings. The NHL's top-seeded team planned on putting Dominik Hasek in goal during the playoffs and keeping him there. .Dom is not going to struggle,. Detroit Coach Mike Babcock said the day before the post-season started, attempting to shoot down a question about the possibility of playing Chris Osgood. But when Hasek did struggle against the Nashville Predators, Babcock benched the six-time Vezina Trophy winner in favor of Osgood during Game 4 of the first round. |
| Djokovic, Nadal one step closer Mon, 02 Jun 2008 01:43 EDT PARIS . Novak Djokovic will leave the looking ahead to others. If he's to be believed, the No. 3-ranked Djokovic has more immediate concerns than a possible French Open semifinal against No. 2 Rafael Nadal or final against No. 1 Roger Federer. First things first at Roland Garros for Djokovic: a quarterfinal against Ernests Gulbis, set up by three-set victories for both men Sunday. Never heard of Gulbis? Djokovic has. Knows the 19-year-old kid from Latvia quite well, in fact. They go way back, having shared adventures on and off the court a few years ago at Coach Niki Pilic's tennis academy in Munich, Germany. .He was destroying me in practices. I couldn't win a match. Practice? No chance,. Djokovic said, then added with a wink and a smile: .So all the pressure's on him, OK? He's the favorite.. |
| LSU wins 23rd straight, moves to Super Regional Mon, 02 Jun 2008 01:43 EDT Louisiana State's six-run outburst in the bottom of the sixth inning blew open a tight NCAA Regional baseball final on Sunday, as the Tigers completed a tournament sweep and advanced to the Super Regional with a 11-3 win over Southern Miss. LSU (46-16-1), winners of an SEC-record 23 consecutive games, led 3-2 entering the sixth inning. The Tigers coupled three hits with two hit batters and a walk to expand their advantage to 9-2. Regional MVP Blake Dean completed the onslaught with a two-out bases-loaded triple. Georgia 8, Georgia Tech 0: Nick Montgomery pitched a four-hit shutout and Matt Olson, Matt Cerione and Rich Poythress hit two-run homers, powering Georgia past Georgia Tech in the NCAA Athens Regional. Georgia avoided elimination to force a final game against Georgia Tech Monday. |
