no small challenge in a host country that has Antworten

SAN DIEGO -- Mark Trumbos magnificent two-run home run into the second deck in left field was the 55th of the month for the Baltimore Orioles, tying the big league record for long balls in June.Some guys are aware of it, some arent, Trumbo said after the Orioles routed the San Diego Padres for the second straight game, 12-6 on Wednesday. Its a special thing but its not something anyones going to gloat about or spend too much time thinking about. It just goes to show were on a nice little run.Are they ever. Trumbo hit his major league-leading 23rd homer and drove in four runs for the AL East-leading Orioles, who won their seventh straight game.With one game left in the month, Baltimore tied the 1996 Oakland As for the most homers in June. Overall, the Orioles lead the majors with 124.The Orioles hit four home runs in sweeping the two-game series, including three in Tuesday nights 11-7 win.When youre winning, everything is that much better, Trumbo said. This in particular is a product of a couple guys getting real hot real quick and some of the other guys sustaining what were doing.Trumbo said this is easily the best lineup hes been on.Consistently, too. Theres just not too many teams that are going to be able to do what we do. Its kind of the best-case scenario for what we were looking for coming into the season.Were getting contributions from everyone, Trumbo added. I think theres full confidence in one through nine throughout this lineup. Theres really no holes. You can chose to go at someone or pitch around someone, but the guys behind them generally have been pretty good about picking up the slack. Anytime youre that deep it can make for a tough time for some of the opposing teams.Trumbo hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning and a two-run double in the ninth. Manny Machado had two hits and three RBI, and pitcher Yovani Gallardo singled twice and scored a run.After San Diego lefty Christian Friedrich (4-3) retired his first nine batters, he walked Adam Jones and allowed Jonathan Schoops RBI double. Machado hit an RBI single and, with one out, Trumbo homered into the second deck in left field to make it 4-0.The Orioles scored two runs in the fifth on a throwing error by Friedrich with two outs and the bases loaded. Friedrich fielded Chris Davis nubber down the line and made an errant throw to Wil Myers at first. Padres manager Andy Green was ejected for arguing with umpire Bill Miller, apparently about whether Davis ran outside the lane.Its a tough call, Green said. I didnt have the expectation it was a very easy call to make, because theyre watching the ball roll down the line. Foul or fair, thats the first thing theyre looking at. All I can watch is the baserunner, so Im starting at Chris Davis. As soon as he passes where the ball is, he veered into fair territory.Green said the ejected was justified in the sense that I was out there longer than I shouldve and probably not going to leave until I get ejected? Yeah, thats probably justifiable.Said Friedrich: It lets you know hes got your back. It fires you up a little bit. You know hes into the game no matter the score, and is always behind his guys.The only costly mistake by Gallardo (3-1) was allowing Brett Wallaces three-run homer with two outs in the sixth. Gallardo was outhitting the Padres 2-1 after getting singles in the fifth and sixth. He opened the Padres sixth by allowing a single by Melvin Upton Jr. and walking Myers. Gallardo struck out Matt Kemp and Yangervis Solarte before allowing Wallaces homer to straightaway center, his fifth.Gallardo didnt allow a hit until rookie Alex Dickersons single with one out in the fifth. He gave up three hits and three runs in six innings, struck out six and walked three.Friedrich allowed six runs, four earned, and five hits in five innings. He struck out seven and walked two.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: RHP Andrew Casher (strained neck) is expected to come off the 15-day disabled list Sunday to start against the New York Yankees.UP NEXTOrioles: RHP Chris Tillman (10-1, 3.52 ERA) starts the opener of a four-game series at Seattle on Thursday night. The Mariners are scheduled to start RHP Taiyuan Walker (3-6, 3.45).Padres: After a day off, the Padres welcome the New York Yankees to Petco Park, with San Diego RHP Colin Rea (4-3, 5.05 ERA) scheduled to face RHP Nathan Vivaldi (6-5, 5.19).

Hydro Flask 32 Oz Australia . -- Eastern Kentucky thrives off creating havoc for others. RIO DE JANEIRO -- Moments after crossing the finish line, Greg Van Avermaet lamented the many times hed fallen just short and all the close calls that have marked his cycling career.Then, he climbed to the top step of the Olympic podium and claimed a gold medal.The popular Belgian out-sprinted Jakob Fuglsang of Denmark and Rafal Majka of Poland on the long run to the finish at Copacabana Beach on Saturday, winning a chaotic mens Olympic road race marked by brutal climbs, withering heat and a crash involving the leaders on the final harrowing descent.The perilous conditions vanquished multiple Tour de France winners and several prerace faces, and left plenty of riders with scrapes, bruises and bloody road rash.I fell just short so often. I missed out in the end so often, Van Avermaet told reporters in Flemish at the finish line. This makes up for everything.Fuglsang took silver for Denmark. Majka began cramping but earned bronze for Poland.Nowhere to be found were Italys Vincenzo Nibali, one of the favorites, and Colombian counterpart Sergio Henao, both of whom crashed out of the lead just miles from the finish.Nibali and Henao were going so fast over the bending, forest-lined roads that TV cameras on motorbikes couldnt keep up, making it unclear what caused their spill. Both were still on the pavement when the cameras arrived -- Nibali was later found to have a broken collarbone.I feel sorry for our guys, Nibabli told his coach, Davide Cassani.More painful than the broken bone may be his squandered chance. The hard course offered a rare opportunity for the Giro dItalia winner and former Tour de France champion to compete for gold.When I saw the crash I was confused about how many riders were still up the road, Van Avermaet said. I was working with Fuglsang, and we saw Majka. We knew it was possible.Known more for his climbing chops, Majka was eventually reeled in as the race neared the finish, where a sun-splashed crowd that had spent the day on the beach awaited their arrival.The long course was tightly guarded by police, no small challenge in a host country that has been dealing with spikes in crime. The only incident occurred a few hundred meters from the finish line, where a bomb squad detonated an unattended bag hours before the riders returned.The race rolledd off to the soundtrack of crashing waves and under clear, sunny skies buzzing with helicopters -- some carrying TV cameras, others from the military to provide security.ddddddddddddRiders headed along the brilliant beaches of high-end neighborhoods, then began attacking each other on their way south. The days break quickly formed when six riders slipped away and built a gap of nearly 8 minutes, among them former world champion Michal Kwiatkowski of Poland.The brutality of the course became evident over the cobblestone sectors.Ahmet Orken of Turkey was rattled off his bike. Richie Porte of Australia had his chain bounce off.The break stayed clear through four laps of the Grumari Circuit, a 25-kilometer loop that began stringing out the field. The riders then headed back toward Rio and began three climbs of Vista Chinesa, a tough uphill slog that splintered what was left of the peloton.So hard was the course that reigning world champion Peter Sagan of Slovakia chose to try his luck in the mountain bike race. No doubt many rivals thought it was the right decision.The heat and the distance and the wind and the downhill and the cobbles. It had everything, said Brent Bookwalter, an American who finished 16th. It was really a roller coaster.One by one, a pack driven by Britain, Spain and Italy pulled back the break, though Kwiatkowski made them work for it. His jersey flapping open in the midday heat, the Polish star was finally caught by six riders after nearly 200 kilometers spent at the front.Time trial favorites Porte and Nelson Oliveira of Portugal crashed during one of the fast descents, and Porte spent was eventually taken to Vitoria Hospital in Barra for an examination. He had broken his shoulder blade in the wreck and will miss out on Wednesdays race against the clock.There was more carnage on the final march.The images of Nibali and Henao lying on the road caused a gasp among fans watching on a big screen at the finish line, and Britains Geraint Thomas joined them on the ground.Van Avermaet managed to stay upright -- all the way to the finish.The highlight of my career, the Belgian said as the sun set. Its not going to get any better. ' ' '
