CROMWELL, Conn. Nolan Ryan Jersey . -- Three-quarters of the U.S. mens Olympic golf team will be playing together in Connecticut this week.Bubba Watson, Patrick Reed and Matt Kuchar are scheduled to go out as a trio Thursday and Friday for the first two rounds of the Travelers Championship.The fourth member of the team, Rickie Fowler, is skipping the PGA Tour event to attend Fridays opening ceremony in Rio de Janeiro.The other three expect to fly out after Sundays final round, putting them in Brazil well before the Aug. 11 start of the Olympic golf competition.All three say they are focused on this week and this tournament. But they also acknowledge that the excitement for the first Olympic golf tournament in 112 years is building.Much of their Team USA gear was waiting for them when they arrived this week at the TPC River Highlands course.I opened that up and was like a kid at Christmas, just showing every piece to everybody, Reed said.Reed and Kuchar made the Olympic team after two-time major champion Jordan Spieth and U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson opted not to go, citing health concerns including the threat posed by the Zika virus.I had my fingers crossed that some golfers would bypass the Olympics to be honest, Kuchar said. I had fingers crossed that they would so that Id have a chance to accept.Watson, the defending Travelers champion, said he prepared his schedule with this tournament and the Olympics in mind, taking some time off earlier in the year to be fresh for what he knew would be a grueling stretch of golf.Who cares if I finish dead last, he said. Just to be part of the Olympics is a big honor and a thrill.Besides the Americans, three other Olympians are playing in Cromwell -- Germanys Alex Cejka, Denmarks Soren Kjeldsen and Irelands Padraig Harrington.They will be competing with the other golfers on a newly renovated course.The TPC River Highlands, which has hosted the Connecticut stop on the PGA Tour since 1984, underwent a $3.5 million face-lift over the past year.Officials removed about 50 bunkers that were no longer in play for the longer-hitting pros, repositioned others, added some viewing areas and reconfigured some greens to allow for tougher hole placements.The course remains a par-70 and is still 6,841 yards.Its all about appeal, Watson said. I dont know if youd call it modernization or something, but it looks newer, fresher.Watson announced Wednesday that he would donate $100,000 to the Bruce Edwards Foundation for ALS research. Edwards, who was from Wethersfield and was Tom Watsons long-time caddie, died of Lou Gehrigs disease, also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.The fight against ALS became the charitable focus of this years tournament after former Travelers chief executive Jay Fishman announced he had been diagnosed with the neurodegenerative disease.At Fishmans behest, New Britains Hospital for Special Care, which treats most of the ALS patients in Connecticut, became the tournaments primary charitable beneficiary. Kole Calhoun Jersey .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. Andrelton Simmons Jersey . Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself. http://www.cheapangelsjerseys.com/ . "I wrote 36 on my sheet at the beginning of the game," the Cincinnati coach said, referring the yard line the ball would need to be snapped from. LOS ANGELES -- Yasiel Puig is making his mark against left-handed pitching while helping the Dodgers in a major way.The Cuban outfielders three-run homer highlighted a five-run first inning in a 9-3 rout of the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday night, extending the Dodgers NL West lead to six games with 10 remaining.Its nice to have that separation, third baseman Justin Turner said, but nothing is certain until that number is zero. The important thing is to stay hot and build some momentum as youre rolling into the playoffs.Puig is doing just that against lefties. He has four home runs and two walks against them since returning from the minor leagues earlier this month. Hes started all six games in September against lefties, who have given the Dodgers fits this season.Hes done some things mechanically, manager Dave Roberts said. When he elevates the ball with his strength good thing are going to happen. Hes getting to a lot of pitches he wasnt prior.The Dodgers beat left-hander Madison Bumgarner 2-1 in Mondays series opener and got to fellow lefty Matt Moore (11-12) early.It was good for us to break out, Roberts said.Puig is batting .333 (6 for 16) with eight RBI in seven games at home since being recalled on Sept. 2.Thats the guy we all know he can be, Turner said. Hes an exciting player on both sides of the ball. We knew he could be a game-changer for us.The Dodgers pounded out 12 hits in taking two of three from the rival Giants, who remained tied in the NL wild-card race after both the Mets and Cardinals lost earlier. The Dodgers conclude the regular season with three games at San Francisco next week.Kenta Maeda (16-9) allowed two runs -- one earned -- and three hits in five innings while improving to 4-0 against the Giants this season. The right-hander struck out six and walked one in making his 30th start of the season for just the second time in his career. Maeda is one win from tying Rick Sutcliffes record by a rookie set in 1979.Moore gave up six runs and seven hits in one inning, walked one and struck out none in a messy outing for the left-hander who had pitched exceptionally well at Dodger Stadium.It was a bad day to have a bad day, he said. There was a lot of small stuff going on.Moore was one out away from throwing his first career no-hitter on Aug. 25 in Los Angeles when Corey Seager broke it up with a single. He previously held the Dodgers to just one unearned run in 15 1/3 innings.He was making a lot of mistakes and we made them pay, outfielder Kike Hernandez said. Last time he was making every pitch.After two close games, including a 2-0 loss Tuesday, the Dodgers put the game away early.They took a 5-1 lead in the bottom of that inning on Puigs 11th homer and RBI singles by Adrian Gonzalez and Maeda.They made it 6-2 in the second on Turners sacrifice fly. Howie KKendrick doubled in two more runs with two outs in the third. Cheap Angels Jerseys China. The Dodgers added another run on pinch-hitter Andrew Toles RBI double in the sixth.The Giants runs came on Angel Pagans RBI single in the first, Ehire Adrianzas homer in the second and Brandon Belts RBI single in the sixth.TRAINERS ROOMGiants: RHP Johnny Cueto had an MRI on Wednesday that confirmed a Grade 1 groin strain, which forced him out of his start in the sixth inning Tuesday. Hes questionable for his next start, although manager Bruce Bochy hasnt ruled him for the Giants next series. ... SS Brandon Crawford came out of Tuesdays victory with a dislocated left pinky on his glove hand in the second. Hell need a couple days to recover, Bochy said.Dodgers: LHP Scott Kazmir comes off the disabled list to start Friday against Colorado after missing nearly a month with neck inflammation. Hes expected to throw about 90 pitches, but will be monitored. He threw a 35-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday.REELIN IT INDodgers outfielders Kike Hernandez and Puig made dramatic catches in the fourth. A charging Hernandez caught Belts fly ball to center, landing on his front side fully stretched for the second out of the inning. Puig tracked Joe Paniks ball over his shoulder, made the catch and, with his momentum carrying him, climbed a step up on the right field scoreboard before jumping down to end the inning. His catch was way better than mine, Hernandez said. I never thought he was going to make the play and sure enough he did.TROUBLE BEHIND THE PLATEDodgers catcher Carlos Ruiz had a troublesome first that led to the Giants first run. Denard Span walked and took second on a passed ball by Ruiz before Pagan singled to right. Puigs throw to the plate bounced once and Ruiz missed the tag in a close play.VISITING VINBochy visited retiring Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully before the game, joining a long list of opposing managers and players whove done so this season. They chatted in Scullys fifth-floor booth, where Bochy said he could see where he does his magic.I was telling him all the memories that go through my head, the manager said. Ive been coming to the ballpark for 21 years; hes been here 67 years. Hes an incredible man who has done so much for the game.UP NEXTGiants: RHP Jeff Samardzija (11-10, 3.97 ERA) starts the series opener against the Padres.
