FLORHAM PARK, N. John Riggins Redskins Jersey .J. --?New York Jets safety Calvin Pryor?was?fined $25,000 by the NFL for hitting Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin above the neck/shoulder area in Week 4. On Wednesday, Pryor said he will appeal the fine because he believes the amount is excessive for a first-time offender.I dont know if it was a clean hit or not, but I dont think it was worth $25,000, Pryor said.Pryor was penalized for unnecessary roughness on the play -- a 37-yard reception in the Jets 27-17 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday. Baldwin got up slowly but finished the game.Explaining what happened, Pryor said he turned late and tried to lower his target, but he was already falling, so it was kind of hard. It was a bang-bang play.According to the leagues fine schedule, a first-time offender can be fined $24,309 for a hit on a defenseless player.Pryor has a reputation as a fierce hitter, but he disputed the notion that hes a cheap-shot artist.Im a clean hitter, he said. I never got flagged for any hit. This is my first one, dating back to high school, college, anything. I was kind of surprised (by the fine), but it is what it is.The fine marked Pryors first career penalty, according to NFL stats. He entered the league as a first-round pick in 2014.Asked what he believes would be a fair fine amount, he said: Zero. Im thinking about my daughter, my family and the [things] I could do with $25,000. Ill see what they say and keep playing football. Trent Williams Redskins Jersey . Datsyuk will miss Tuesdays game against New Jersey and could be sidelined longer, while Cleary will likely miss at least the next three games. Its been an injury-plagued season for Datsyuk, who has suited up for just 39 games.

White came in fourth place in the event. He was the two-time defending gold medallist. The gold medal went to Swiss snowboarder Iouri Podladtchikov. CLEVELAND -- Once he rounded the bases a second time, propelled by a roaring crowd at Progressive Field, Roberto Perez began to understand what he had done.I dont think Ive ever had a night like that, Clevelands catcher said.He picked a good time for it.Known almost exclusively for his defense, Perez provided plenty of pop in Game 1 of the World Series, hitting a pair of homers -- a solo shot and a three-run drive -- as the Indians rolled to their fourth shutout of the postseason, 6-0 over the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday night.The Indians love Perezs glove, arm and ability to frame pitches. Any offense they get from him is a bonus.All he did in his debut on baseballs biggest stage was become the first Indians hitter with a multihomer game in the Series. He tied the franchise record for RBI and joined Manny Ramirez and Jim Thome as the only Cleveland players to hit two homers in a postseason game.Not bad for a backup catcher who batted .183 during the regular season.Ive come a long ways. Im just playing with a lot of confidence right now, said Perez, who also homered in his first at-bat of the playoffs. Im not trying to do too much at the plate. Im just trying to control my emotions. First World Series experience, and just trying to go out there and compete and try to get good ABs up there, and try to get on base and make something happen. Its an unbelievable feeling.The 27-year-old Perez, who had thumb surgery this season, has three homers in 27 postseason at-bats -- equaling his number in 153 at-bats during the regular season.Perez homered his first time up in the AL Division Series against Boston and on Tuesday became the first No. 9 batter to hit two homers in a World Series game.His teammates saw it coming.I watch how hard he works day in and day out, said shortstop Francisco Lindor, who had three hits. Hes doing it for his family. Hes doing it for Puerto Rico. Its awesome to see him stepping up. Sonny Jurgensen Redskins Jersey. I almost cried when he hit the (second) home run. Hes one of my buddies on the team. Im just super happy, super excited for him and his family.Perez gave the Indians a 3-0 lead in the fourth with his homer off starter Jon Lester. The left-hander attempted to sneak an 0-1 fastball past Perez, who lined it over the 19-foot wall in left field, his shot pinging off a railing.With the Indians up 3-0 and two outs in the eighth, Perez drove a pitch from Hector Rondon into the bleachers in left, sending Indians fans into a frenzy and moving Cleveland a step closer to its first title since 1948.As he crossed home plate, Perez delivered a double high-five to teammate Lonnie Chisenhall.Perezs 1-2 punch flattened the Cubs. But beyond his unexpected offensive production, Perez has been excellent behind the plate in handling Clevelands pitchers, who have complimented the way he calls a game.He should be a star catcher, thats the way hes heading, reliever Andrew Miller said. He doesnt even have to get a hit to validate his spot behind the plate.Perez worked the corners for starter Corey Kluber, who struck out nine Cubs -- six of them looking.For much of the season, Perez didnt come close to hitting his weight (220 pounds), and there was a long stretch when he was almost an automatic out in the lineup. But when starter Yan Gomes went down with a separated shoulder in July and then a broken wrist in September, Perez stepped in and the Indians havent missed a beat.Hes the latest surprise on a surprising squad of Indians.What he did at the plate tonight, my goodness, that was exciting to watch, Indians manager Terry Francona said. Everybody was happy for him. You could see the way everybody reacted to it.
