ANAHEIM, Calif. Air Max 90 Nere Pelle . -- The Oakland Athletics got a morale boost from ace Sonny Grays return Wednesday night, but it wasnt enough.Kole Calhoun homered, Alex Meyer earned his second major league win and the Los Angeles Angels held off a late rally from the As to sweep the three-game series with an 8-6 win.Gray was activated from the 15-day disabled list prior to his start. Gray, who was sidelined with a right forearm strain from Aug. 7-Sept. 27, was limited to only one inning and threw 18 pitches, 13 of them for strikes. He gave up one hit and faced four batters in his first start since Aug. 6.As manager Bob Melvin said his return made a noticeable difference in the clubhouse culture.Thats our guy, Melvin said. It was sort of an off season for him, but he went out there and was healthy and looked like the old Sonny. Psychologically, hes good for the whole ball club.Khris Davis, who played at nearby Cal State Fullerton, hit his 41st home run and his sixth against the Angels this season in the sixth inning, making the score 8-3. Marcus Semien brought the As to within two runs with a three-run homer, also his sixth against Los Angeles, in the eighth.But J.C. Ramirez pitched a perfect ninth to convert his second save.Thats a big blow for us right there, Melvin said. You feel like, now were back in the ballgame and hold them down. We thought going into the ninth wed have a chance.Mike Trout was hit by a John Axford fastball in the back of his left shoulder in the eighth inning and was removed from the game. Hell have imaging done Thursday to determine whether or not he can play through the weekend against the Houston Astros.Trout said the pitch his his shoulder blade and left him with a sizable, sore welt.I want to (play), Ill tell you that, Trout said. Weve got three games left, so Im going to try to grind it out. After going down 2-0 early, the Angels rallied for eight runs in the fourth inning. Ross Detwiler (3-3), who replaced Gray in the second, got the first out but then put then put the next four batters on and gave up two runs before getting the second out.Meyer (2-3) limited the As to two runs on five hits over four innings and struck out five.I think theres no doubt that Alex is moving forward in many ways, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. I think first and foremost, I think his delivery is getting more consistent. Hes able to repeat it, his arm angle is where hes working towards getting it, and hopefully hell continue to improve with his consistency.With runners on the corners, Shane Robinson cleared the bases with a double to left and took third on the throw. Calhoun homered for the 17th time this season to give Los Angeles a 6-2 lead and Mike Trout singled to keep the inning alive.Detwiler was finally replaced after giving up a double to C.J. Cron, the 10th batter of the inning. Reliever Chris Smith couldnt end the threat as he walked the next two batters to walk in a run and Stephen Vogts failure to throw to first on a grounder by Jett Bandy allowed Cron to score for the eighth run of the inning.Gregorio Petit, the 14th batter, finally ended the inning by grounding out to Smith.Early on, it looked like he had good stuff, Melvin said. The ball was down, the ball was moving, it looked like he had good nicks right away. But then he left some balls up and got into some funky counts.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: RHP Garrett Richards threw off the mound to hitters for the first time since tearing his ulnar collateral ligament May 1. Richards, who has been throwing for a month after stem cell treatments showed significant healing in the ligament, will throw another bullpen this weekend before continuing his season in the instructional league.UP NEXTAthletics: RHP Kendall Graveman will start the As final series of the season, Thursday in Seattle. Graveman is 0-3 with a 5.28 ERA in his last five starts and has posted similar numbers against the Mariners, going 1/3 with a 5.40 ERA in seven career appearances.Angels: Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia declined to name a starter for Fridays series-opener against the Houston Astros. RHP Daniel Wright or RHP Jhoulys Chacin are likely candidates. Air Max 90 Ultra Moire . Gerald Green and Miles Plumlee? Green had bounced around the NBA when he wasnt playing overseas.

"We talked about wanting to be disciplined and stick with our game plan and good things will come," Draisaitl said, who had two goals for the victors. Nico Hulkenberg says the mega lap which put him fifth on the grid for the Mexican Grand Prix saw him extract the maximum from the car.Hulkenberg looked strong during FP2 on Friday and built on that in qualifying, splitting Red Bull and Ferrari for a place on the third row on the grid.My first lap in Q3 was quite mega, I dont think there was anything more I could squeeze out of there, he said. All in all, just a really good qualifying.The German driver, who had only been ninth in FP3 on Saturday morning, says his car found pace as the day progressed.I think the car just got better and better through qualifying, with the track gripping up, he said. Its not a low downforce track but due to the high altitude its quite low downforce, track evolution seemed to hellp the car and pick up the balance and the pace for us. Nike Air Max Scontate Italia. Perhaps we did a good job as well understanding the tyres, getting them into the sweet spot.Hulkenberg has been involved in incidents at the start in Singapore and the U.S. recently, but he is not daunted by a similar fate on Sunday in Mexico.Youve always got to be careful at the start. Every start has a different dynamic so you have to play it by ear, see where the gap is. I think last weekend wasnt great, but it wasnt my mistake. I think it should be fine tomorrow.We had [the long straight to Turn 1] last year though and everyone survived! So not too concerned.
