BALTIMORE -- The Orioles had their ace on the mound and a two-run lead against the last-place Tampa Bay Rays. Adidas Jiri Hudler Jersey .That seemingly ideal situation was thrown awry by Evan Longoria.Longoria homered, tripled and scored three runs as the Rays blunted Baltimores playoff push with a 5-2 victory Saturday night.The loss dropped Baltimore three games behind first-place Boston in the AL East and a half-game in back of Toronto for the top AL wild-card slot, pending the Blue Jays late game at the Los Angeles Angels.They understand the atmosphere that theyre playing in, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. Every game is important, just like they were in April. Weve got a chance, and tonight wont change that.The Orioles have lost two of three to the Rays in a series that ends Sunday.You say what you want about the Rays and the standings, but theyve got a formidable major league team over there, center fielder Adam Jones said. Theyre not just laying down, dying, quitting and just letting us win.Chris Tillman (16-6) had a one-hitter and a 2-1 lead after five innings, but he failed to get out of the sixth.Longoria led off the inning by hitting a long fly ball outside the left-field foul pole. He sent the next pitch over the center-field wall -- his eighth career homer off Tillman in 63 at-bats.It was pretty impressive, Rays manager Kevin Cash said. You dont see many guys go homer foul and then straighten it out a little more.Brad Miller followed with an infield hit and scored on a two-out double by Richie Shaffer.Tampa Bay added two unearned runs in the eighth when Mikie Mahtook hit a bases-loaded single after an error by first baseman Chris Davis.Longoria has homered in each of the three games and has a career-high 35 for the season.Just taking advantage of those pitches I should hit, he said. Id love to keep it going.Matt Andriese (8-7) allowed two runs in 5 1/3 innings to win his second straight start after losing seven decisions in a row. Alex Colome worked the ninth for his 34th save in 36 chances.The Orioles played a second straight game without major league home run leader Mark Trumbo, who has back spasms.Baltimore got a first-inning run when Jones doubled and scored on a fly ball by Manny Machado.A sacrifice fly by Hyun Soo Kim made it 2-0 in the third. Tampa Bay broke through in the fourth when Longoria tripled -- the Rays first hit -- and scored on a grounder by Miller.TRAINERS ROOMRays: 1B Nick Franklin missed a second straight game with a hamstring strain and will likely be re-examined Monday after the team travels home.Orioles: Trumbo could return Sunday. Hes better, improved, close, manager Buck Showalter said. RHP Darren ODay (rotator cuff strain) should come off the disabled list on Sunday or Monday, Showalter said.UP NEXTRays: Jake Odorizzi (9-6, 3.81 ERA) pitches the series finale for the Rays. Hes 6-1 since the All-Star break and has 15 starts overall in which he received no decision.Orioles: Wade Miley (8-13, 5.80) starts for Baltimore. Hes 1-5 with an 8.41 ERA in eight starts since coming to the Orioles just before the non-waiver trade deadline. Adidas Jon Casey Jersey .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week. Adidas Patrick Sharp Jersey . Instead of dwelling on the negative, Oates focused on what was good about the clubs recent play. It worked. http://www.starshockeypro.com/adidas+mike+gartner+stars+jersey . -- Former San Diego Chargers safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area home Tuesday night, and a medical examiner said Wednesday that the ex-player committed suicide. MAUI, Hawaii -- Oregon and Georgetown keep facing off in far-away places.The fourth-ranked Ducks will meet the Hoyas in the first round of the Maui Invitational on Monday. Three years ago, Oregon opened the season with an 82-75 win over Georgetown in South Korea.We were able to play Georgetown three years ago and we had a tough game with them, Ducks coach Dana Altman said. We know they are an awfully good team with a lot of players coming back and we have a good core group coming back.Oregon is one of three ranked teams in the field along with No. 5 North Carolina and No. 9 Wisconsin. The Ducks and Badgers would face off in the semifinals if both advance out of the first round while the Tar Heels could await Oregon or Wisconsin in the title game.You look at the field and the exciting thing about it is a lot of teams have a lot of experience, Altman said. There are good programs and good coaches. North Carolina is coming off being in the national championship and Wisconsin was in the Sweet 16 and we had a nice year. It should be a competitive field.Oregon has its highest ranking in school history after reaching the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament last season, but the Ducks will likely fall when the new polls come out Monday following a 66-49 loss at Baylor on Tuesday.Sometimes it is harder to maintain a certain level of success than achieve it, so we definitely have some obstacles to overcome to get guys in the right frame of mind to compete, Altman said. This tournament will do that because game in and game out there wiill be great competition. Adidas Dino Ciccarelli Jersey. he Ducks hope to have all-conference junior forward Dillon Brooks back to face the Hoyas after he missed the first three games of the season following foot surgery. The 6-foot-7 Brooks, who averaged 16.7 points and 5.4 rebounds last year, has been going through workouts with the team and could be medically cleared in time for the trip to Maui.Hes a big part of our team, but who knows when hes going to be back, Altman said. I dont. The doctors havent told me. I know hes anxious to get back but until they release him we have to play without him.It is unlikely Brooks will start when he first returns because he will be on a limited schedule.We will play him on the exact schedule the doctor gives us, Altman said. We are not going to be conservative or push the envelope, we will do exactly what the doctors say.Oregon opened the season with a 91-77 win over Army before losing at Baylor. The Ducks bounced back with a 76-54 win over Valparaiso on Thursday.With Brooks on the bench, center Chris Boucher leads Oregon in scoring at 17 points per game, followed by guard Tyler Dorsey at 12.7. Junior forward Jordan Bell is averaging 12.3 points and a team-high 8.7 rebounds.Georgetown is 1-2 after back-to-back losses against Maryland and Arkansas State. Guards L.J. Peak and Rodney Pryor each lead the team with 17.7 points per game while center Jessie Govan is averaging 14.3.
