LOS ANGELES -- Roy Halladay was back in the Philadelphia Phillies rotation and kept his team in the game long enough for them to rally late and keep their winning streak alive. Chris Johnson Womens Jersey . Halladay pitched five effective innings in his first start off the disabled list, Hunter Pence got him off the hook with a go-ahead, two-out single in the eighth inning, and the Phillies beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-2 Tuesday night for their fourth straight victory. "I feel good and I feel like I can contribute. If I didnt, I wouldnt have tried to pitch tonight," said Halladay, who had successful rehab start Thursday for Clearwater and threw a bullpen session Saturday. "Anybody who likes to compete wants to be out there, regardless if youre 15 games down in the standings or 15 up." The two-time Cy Young winner threw 80 pitches, allowing two runs and five hits with six strikeouts and no walks. He hadnt pitched for the Phillies since May 27 at St. Louis, when he faced 11 batters over two innings and gave up a grand slam to Yadier Molina during his 8-3 loss. He was diagnosed with a latissimus dorsi strain and missed 42 games. "The big thing for me today was just coming in and being consistent with mechanics and trying to make pitches," The 35-year-old right-hander said. "As a pitcher, its the same as a hitter, getting to where your bodys in synch consistently. I felt there were times tonight where it was, and times where I needed to be a little better consistently doing that." The first two batters Halladay faced, Bobby Abreu and Mark Ellis, were called out on strikes by umpire Wally Bell. Abreu tossed his bat away after a 3-2 pitch and headed to first base, thinking he had walked. Ellis also had a few words for Bell before going back to the dugout. But the Dodgers opened the second inning with four straight hits and took a 2-1 lead with RBI singles by James Loney and Luis Cruz. "We definitely had Halladay on the ropes, but we needed to get more out of that inning than two runs," said catcher A.J. Ellis, who lined into a double play after Cruzs hit. "But he was out there battling and he was really sharp. Hes one of the games best for a reason, and at times tonight he showed it." The Phillies loaded the bases in the eighth when Ronald Belisario (3-1) walked Chase Utley with two outs, then hit Ryan Howard on the foot with a 1-2 pitch and plunked Carlos Ruiz on a full count. Pence greeted Kenley Jansen with a sharp single to centre, scoring Utley and pinch-runner John Mayberry Jr. and giving him a team-high 55 RBIs. It was Jansens first appearance since he was on the mound when San Diegos Everth Cabrera stole home for the tying run in the Dodgers 7-6 loss on Saturday night. Jansen has five blown saves in 21 opportunities. Kyle Kendrick (3-8) got the victory, allowing two hits in 1 2-3 scoreless innings. Jonathan Papelbon, the sixth Phillies pitcher, worked a perfect ninth for his 21st save in 23 chances. Stephen Fife pitched six sharp innings in his major league debut for the Dodgers. The bespectacled 25-year-old right-hander yielded a run and four hits, walked three and struck out one while throwing 90 pitches. He was promoted from Triple-A Albuquerque when Chad Billingsley went on the disabled list, retroactive to July 8, because of inflammation in his right elbow. The Dodgers acquired Fife from Boston in a three-team trade that sent switch-hitting outfielder Trayvon Robinson to Seattle at the non-waiver trade deadline last year. He was 7-5 with a 4.53 ERA in 18 starts with Albuquerque. "Today I watched some of his tape from some of his Albuquerque outings, and what I saw is exactly what we got -- a guy who competes and gives us a chance," A.J. Ellis said. "He did everything we asked of him, and more. He hung with them, and any nerves he might have had he didnt show it. Its a shame we couldnt get him that first career win tonight." The Dodgers were clinging to a 2-1 lead in the sixth when Howard drew a one-out walk, advanced on a wild pitch and tried to score on a line-drive single by Pence. But Kemp made a one-hop throw to the plate, and Ellis stretched to his left to get the ball and made a lunging tag on Howard as he slid in head-first. Kemp got another assist in the eighth, erasing Ruiz at third base for the third out after coming up throwing on Pences clutch hit. But it wasnt enough to prevent the Dodgers fourth straight loss and 19th in their last 25 games. "Were just trying to get through this forest and see the light at the end," A.J. Ellis said. "We have to keep grinding. You cant dwell on the losses, just focus on the next day and have confidence and faith that the next day is going to start a winning streak." NOTES: The Phillies freed up a roster spot for Halladay by optioning RHP Brian Sanches to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Sanches allowed seven runs, 12 hits and four homers over 6 1-3 innings in his six relief appearances. In addition, all four of his inherited baserunners scored. ... Halladay, who finished runner-up in last years NL Cy Young voting to the Dodgers Clayton Kershaw, is four strikeouts away from 2,000 in his career. ... Wednesdays series finale matches 2008 AL Cy Young winner Cliff Lee against reigning NL Cy Young winner Clayton Kershaw, who is 0-4 with a 4.95 ERA in seven regular-season starts against the Phillies. Lee is 1-6 with a 3.92 ERA in 15 starts this season, after going 17-8 last year. Chris Johnson Youth Jersey . The Saskatchewan Roughriders crushed the Blue Bombers 52-0 on Sunday, dealing Tim Burke a loss in his CFL debut as a head coach. Kenny Britt Womens Jersey . Bray gave up four hits and three runs during an 11-1 loss to St. Louis on April 18. The move to the DL is retroactive to April 19. The Reds already were missing closer Ryan Madson, out for the season with a torn elbow ligament. http://www.shopthetitans.com/matt-hasselbeck-jerseys . The Capitals signed the defenceman to a $18.25-million, three-year contract on Monday. The move comes a day after Green rejected a $5-million, one-year qualifying offer from Washington and became a restricted free agent. Kenny Britt Youth Jersey . A person familiar with the arrangements said Rodriguez intends to make the announcement in Arlington, Texas, where the Rangers start a homestand Monday against the New York Yankees. Kenny Britt Jersey . Spanish winger Jose Callejon led defending champion Madrids attack in the second-leg match, marking his third straight start with the opening and closing goals at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium to complete a 7-1 aggregate victory. SAN ANTONIO -- So much for getting rusty: The San Antonio Spurs didnt miss a beat after a weeklong break, extending a winning streak that few NBA teams have ever sustained in the playoffs. The weary Los Angeles Clippers looked just beaten -- and making matters worse, theyre even a little more beat-up than when they got here. Tim Duncan had 26 points and 10 rebounds following an eight-day layoff for the top-seeded Spurs, who wore down Los Angeles in the Clippers sixth game in 11 days and won Game 1 of their Western Conference semifinals series, 108-92 on Tuesday night. "Its hard to tell if they were tired or not. If we were rusty or not," Spurs guard Manu Ginobili said. "The game just developed that way it did." By that, he meant the latest Spurs blowout. The Spurs have won 15 in a row, havent lost in more than a month and are winning by an average margin of nearly 17 points during that span. Its the longest winning streak sustained in the NBA playoffs since the 2004 Spurs carried 17 straight wins into the second round that season. That Spurs team, however, wound up dropping four straight to the Lakers and lost that series. The Clippers have a lot of work to do if theyre going to stage a similar stunner, and a good start would be getting healthy. Blake Griffin scored 15 points in 28 minutes a day after estimating his sprained left knee had him feeling "80 per cent" at best. The All-Star said he became tired quicker than usual, and also turned his left ankle early in the game. "But Ill get back in the training room, get treatment and hope to be better the next game," Griffin said. The marquee matchup of the series -- All-Star point guards Tony Parker and Chris Paul -- began with a fizzle. Paul, who ended the first round with an aching hip, scored just six points and didnt make a single basket in the second half. Parker was barely any batter, putting together seven points and 11 assists, and didnt talk to reporters after the game. Paul did face the media after his worst playoff game since scoring four points in a loss to Denver in 2009. But not until after a quick chat with his young son. "Good game, Daddy," Pauls son said in the locker room. "No, bad game," Paul told him. "Daddy had a bad game. Daddy couldnt make a shot." Paul, who was 3 of 13 from the floor, gave a more elaborate explanation to reporters. "I felt I got all the shots that I wanted. I just didnt make them," Paul said. "Thats the most frustrating part. Getting to where I wanted to and not seeing them go down. Cant do that in the playoffs." Game 2 is TThursday night. Jamie Harper Jersey. . That gives the beat-up and banged-up Clippers one full day of rest -- which is all the time theyve had to recover between games for the past week and a half. Los Angeles couldnt even fly home first after knocking out the Grizzlies on Sunday in Game 7 of a grueling series that had the Clippers hobbling next to Texas. Rookie Kawhi Leonard added 16 points, hitting all three of his 3s, and Danny Green added 15 points for the Spurs. Caron Butler scored 15 points and Nick Young had 13 for the Clippers. Los Angeles cut the deficit to single digits with a 10-burst in the fourth quarter before San Antonio ran away with its 11th double-digit victory during this dominating winning streak. The Clippers didnt even need San Antonios help getting more bumps and bruises: Mo Williams, already playing with his sore right fingers taped, took a lump on the head when teammate Reggie Evans kicked him with an errant foot after Williams fell on his back in the lane. Williams wobbled when he tried standing, sat back down, and the Clippers burned a timeout. He never left the game, but the Clippers werent getting any fresher. Parker, meanwhile, finally felt the hard knocks and slow-him-down shoves that Utah repeatedly promised but never delivered in the first round. Sometimes, the All-Star looked in vain to officials when the whistle didnt blow. When that didnt work once in the first quarter, he kept jabbering about a no-call on the last possession while lining up to shoot free throws on the current one. Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, pacing and sensing an impending technical foul, silenced his leading scorer. "Tony!" Popovich snapped from the sideline. "Shoot!" Parker waved off the NBA Coach of the Year -- he was under control. But his frustrations didnt end there. He was 1 for 9 despite playing 38 minutes, scoring all but two of his points at the foul line. "He didnt score, but he got 11 assists," Ginobili said. "Thats who we are. Sometimes its not going to be him." Notes: The Spurs tied a franchise playoff record with 13 3-pointers.Before this became the deepest Spurs team yet under Popovich, Butler said he came so close to signing with the Spurs after the lockout that he cancelled a flight to San Antonio when the Clippers counteroffered. "They made a great pitch," Butler said. ...Leonard finished fourth in the Rookie of the Year voting, the highest finish for a Spurs player since Ginobili finished fourth in 2003. Said Popovich: "Hes done a good enough job to make me trust him to be in the starting lineup. Im happy for him." ' ' ' |
