CINCINNATI -- Brandon Finnegan might not have many starts left this season, and hes winding down in memorable fashion.
Cheap Patriots Jerseys .Finnegan took a no-hitter into the seventh inning, Adam Duvall and Jose Peraza each hit home runs in returns to the lineup and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 11-1 on Saturday night.Adrian Gonzalez singled to center field leading off the seventh to break up Finnegans no-hit bid, and that was the only hit against the 23-year-old lefty.Gonzalez hit it hard but you never know when (second baseman Brandon Phillips) is around, Finnegan said. We had the shift on, but he beat it.I was just worried about making quality pitches. I had command of all three of my pitches tonight.Finnegan (8-9) allowed two walks and had eight strikeouts, one short of tying his career high, while throwing 96 pitches over seven innings. He also doubled and scored twice while the Reds extended their winning streak to a season-high five games.Finnegan did not return after the game was delayed in the middle of the seventh for 1 hour, 19 minutes because of rain.Finnegans role might be changing as the season winds down and the Reds try to preserve his arm, which left manager Bryan Price facing a dilemma.It is as sharp as Ive seen Finnegan, Price said. We got him runs early so he didnt have to be so exact. He was coming out whether it rained or not. The hit just made it easier. He is one of the guys we are concerned about his innings. Im not going to tell you what Id have done if he still had a no-hitter. Yeah, with 93 pitches we would have probably sent him out.Cincinnati had a season-high 18 hits, including three each from Peraza and Eugenio Suarez.Dodgers starter Brett Anderson (0-2) allowed six runs in three innings before being pulled with a blister on his left index finger. This was his second start since having back surgery in March. He allowed five runs in one inning in his season debut Aug. 14 before exiting with a mild left wrist sprain.Tonight wasnt ideal conditions, Anderson said. We wanted to catch (the blister) before it got too bad. I wanted to go out there and provide some innings. My stuff was good, but I gave up hard hits and some weird hits.This was the second time this season Finnegan flirted with a no-hitter. On April 11 at Wrigley Field, he lost a bid with two outs in the seventh on a single by Cubs catcher David Ross.The only no-hitter in the majors this season came in Cincinnati, by Jake Arrieta of the Cubs in a 16-0 win on April 21.Duvall, back after missing four games with an injured foot, hit a three-run homer to cap a four-run first inning and finished with four RBI. Peraza added a two-run shot in the fourth and drove in three runs in his first game after being recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.PITCHING PLAN: Roberts revealed the Dodgers pitching plans for the series against the Giants. LHP Scott Kazmir will pitch Monday, followed by RHP Kenta Maeda on Tuesday and LHP Rich Hill on Wednesday. Anderson is due to start on Thursday.STREAKING: Besides breaking up Finnegans no-hitter, Gonzalez extended his hitting streak to 13 games.NO CREDIT: Los Angeles RHP Kenley Jansen was announced as entering the game before the rain delay, but he never got to throw a pitch and was replaced by RHP Joe Blanton when play resumed.CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS: Pop singer Paul Simon and actor John Travolta both were at the game. Travolta was shown on the video board dancing to music from his movie, Saturday Night Fever, in the middle of the eighth inning.TRAINING ROOMDodgers: LHP Clayton Kershaws bullpen session was successful, Roberts said. Kershaw threw about 22 pitches and is scheduled for a more extensive test on Tuesday as he tries to come back from a herniated disk.Reds: SS Zack Cozart missed his third consecutive start on Saturday as he continues to be plagues by Achilles tendon and patella tendon soreness.UP NEXTDodgers: LHP Julio Urias (3-2) is scheduled to make his first start since Aug. 8 in Sundays third game of the four-game series. Urias has never faced the Reds.Reds: RHP Anthony DeSclafani (7-1) is to make his fourth career appearance against the Dodgers on Sunday. He has a 2.37 ERA in three career starts against Los Angeles.

http://www.officialpatriotsnflauthenticshop.com/ . -- Kyrie Irvings last-minute 3-pointer helped seal another victory for Cleveland -- and the Cavaliers longest winning streak since LeBron James left. SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Bilal Powell has been a complementary running back for most of his career, trying to make the most of whatever opportunity comes his way.When Matt Forte went down with a knee injury in the first quarter and the New York Jets not wanting to put too much on Bryce Pettys plate in his second career start, Powell got plenty of chances.Powell ran for 145 yards and scored the game-winning 19-yard touchdown in overtime that helped the Jets overcome a 14-point deficit to beat the San Francisco 49ers 23-17 on Sunday.After reaching the end zone on his career-high 29th carry, Powell fell on his back and extended his arms in celebration while waiting for the referee to announce a penalty on the 49ers that gave the Jets (4-9) the win. Powell then handed the ball to a young Jets fan in the crowd.I didnt know what happened, he said. I just knew I was tired and I was in the end zone. Im not a big celebration guy. I was just waiting for the confirmation.Powell had good reason to be tired with 34 offensive touches for 179 yards. He had carried the ball 20 times in a game just twice in his six-year career before being given the big load against a tiring defense for the 49ers (1-12).Powell scored on a 5-yard run that helped spark the comeback and then gained 24 more yards on the game-tying field goal at the end of regulation.If it wasnt for him, I dont know if we would have even won this game, coach Todd Bowles said. He single-handedly, from my point of view at least, broke every tackle he could break. He caught every ball. He ran. He blocked. He did everything, and he had outstanding effort.Here are some other takeaways from the game:PETTYS DAYPettys day couldnt have started any worse when he threw an interception that set up San Franciscos first TD on his first pass of the game. But he rebounded to make some key plays, including a 2-point conversion run that cut the deficit to 17-14, and finished 23 for 35 for 257 yards. His biggest play might have been ill-advised as he threw across his body after scrambling in overtime to complete a 26-yard pass to Robby Anderson that helped set uup the winning score.
Womens Patriots Jerseys. He was up and down, Bowles said. He had some plays hed like to have back. He made some throws. He made some dangerous throws. He got away with some things, but he settled down and made some gutsy plays.STAGNANT OFFENSEAfter getting off to a fast start with two touchdowns in the first five minutes and taking a 17-3 lead midway through the second quarter, the 49ers offense stalled . San Francisco was held to 133 yards, no points and punted six times on the final eight drives over the last 42:10 of game time. Colin Kaepernick completed all seven passes for 95 yards in the first quarter, but went 8 for 19 for 38 yards the rest of the way as coach Chip Kelly got conservative with offensive linemen Joe Staley (hamstring) and Daniel Kilgore (leg), tight end Vance McDonald (shoulder) and receiver Torrey Smith (concussion) all out.We have to be able to adjust, adapt and go out and still win football games, Kaepernick said.HYDES BIG DAYCarlos Hyde had a career day for the 49ers, rushing for 193 yards on 17 carries and catching a 7-yard touchdown . He had four runs of more than 20 yards but also was stopped for no gain on fourth-and-2 from the New York 37 on the opening possession of overtime.Thats a play weve been running all game, Hyde said. The Jets just played good defense right there. ... I didnt have a lane where I could go. I just tried to hit it up there and tried to get a push, but they did a good job there.BAALKE BACKERCBS reported earlier in the day that 49ers general manager Trent Baalkes job status is in jeopardy because of a second straight losing season. Kelly backed Baalke.I have tremendous confidence in Trent, he said. I have not heard anything about that.WHATS NEXTThe Jets have another short week before hosting Miami on Saturday night. The 49ers will try to snap their 12-game losing streak when they travel cross-country to take on Atlanta.---For more NFL coverage:
