BLAINE, Minn. Zapatillas Nike Baratas . -- Mark Wiebe followed his Senior British Open playoff victory with an 8-under 64 on Friday in the 3M Championship to take a one-stroke lead over Kenny Perry and Corey Pavin. Four days after beating Bernhard Langer on the fifth extra hole in a Monday finish at Royal Birkdale, Wiebe had eight birdies in a bogey-free first round at TPC Twin Cities. Running on adrenaline after the long week in England was compounded by travel issues that prevented him from getting to Minnesota until Wednesday, Wiebe made a 35-foot birdie putt on the fifth hole and a birdie from the off the fringe on No. 7. After those putts, playing partners Nick Price and Jay Haas told Wiebe to "Keep riding that pony." Wiebe, slowed by right elbow and back ailments earlier this year, birdied five of the last seven holes on the front nine and added birdies on Nos. 12, 14 and 16. Perry is making his first since winning the Senior Players Championship and U.S. Senior Open in consecutive starts for his first major victories. He skipped the Senior British Open because of a family commitment. Perry birdied the first three holes and five of the first six. He birdied three of four holes midway through his back nine to get to 8 under before three-putting the par-3 17th for a bogey. Pavin had a bogey-free round that featured four birdies on the front nine and three on the back. Bart Bryant, Peter Senior, Jeff Brehaut, John Riegger and Tom Pernice Jr. shot 66. Riegger eagled two of the par 5s. Hal Sutton and Colin Montgomerie were another stroke back at 67. Montgomerie is making his fourth Champions Tour start. Comprar Zapatillas Nike Rebajas . "Theyve both been real good," said Babcock. "Havent changed our minds." A decision has seemingly been made - Sundays Group B-deciding tilt against Finland ahead - but it could not have been an easy one. Price opened the tournament with a sturdy 19-save performance against the Norwegians, yielding just one goal. Zapatillas Nike Rebajas . Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void. http://www.barataszapatillasnikeoutlet.es/ . Scott won the Australian PGA last week in his first event in Australia since winning the U.S. Masters in April. American Matt Kuchar, ahead by two strokes with four to play and even with Scott with one to go, double-bogeyed the 18th after taking two shots to get out of a bunker. DENVER -- First baseman: Check. Veteran reliever: Check.Usually more frugal this time of year, the Colorado Rockies are crossing quite a few big-ticket items off their free agency shopping list. On Thursday, the team shored up its shaky bullpen by agreeing to a $19 million, three-year contract with reliever Mike Dunn.Its the second splashy move the Rockies have made in recent days. They also signed All-Star outfielder Ian Desmond to a $70 million, five-year deal as he makes the switch to first base.Colorado may not be done shopping, either.Even after adding Dunn and Desmond, Colorado general manager Jeff Bridich hinted he may still be retooling the team for Bud Blacks first year as Rockies manager. Colorado went 75-87 last season, its best record since 2010, and is trying to close the gap on the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants in the NL West.I believe in this club and this collection of players we have already on the team and the players that are coming in, Bridich said. But I think it would be remiss to say were going to sit here and be satisfied.Hence, the conversations with free agents such as long-ball hitters Mark Trumbo and Edwin Encarnacion.Our process will always be, as Ive said, eyes and ears open to whatever, whether thats free agency or a trade, Bridich said.By signing with Colorado, Dunn not only moves closer to home but possibly to landing a closers role. The Farmington, New Mexico, native has typically worked the middle innings over his career.You always want to potentially become a closer if youre a reliever, Dunn said Thursday at his introductory news conference. Ultimately, I want to win baseball games, however that pans out.The 31-year-old left-hander gets $4 million next season and $7 million in each of the following two years. Colorado has a $6 million option for 2020 with a $1 million buyout, and that seasons salary would become guaranteed at $7 milliion if pitches in 60 games in 2019 or 130 combined in 2018-19.

He went 6-1 with a 3.40 ERA in 51 appearances for the Miami Marlins and had eight holds and four blown saves.Another thing: Hes far from intimidated by the way routine fly balls travel in the thin air of Coors Field.You make good pitches, youll get outs, Dunn casually said. Make better pitches and win the game.Dunn joins a bullpen that includes relievers such as Adam Ottavino -- the favorite to be the closer heading into spring training -- Jake McGee, Chad Qualls and Jason Motte, along with younger arms like Carlos Estevez. Colorado finished 12-20 in games decided by one run last season as the bullpen posted a 5.10 ERA.Were trying to build a good pen where once the starter comes out and we have the lead the game is over, Dunn said.Dunn was picked by the New York Yankees in the 33rd round of the 2004 amateur draft. He is 28-25 over his career with the Yankees, Atlanta Braves and the Marlins. Hes durable, too, only landing on the disabled list once in his career -- at the beginning of 2016, with a strained forearm.I cant guarantee the results, but I guarantee Ill leave everything on the field, Dunn said. My goal is to get in 80 games, maybe 81 -- try to pitch every other day. I train for that and thats what I shoot for.Dunn grew up in Farmington, which is about a seven-hour drive from Denver.When I was younger, I told my dad, `Ill pitch in that stadium someday, Dunn said. This has been a location Ive been looking at for a long time. Ive been paying attention to what theyre doing. Its a very exciting group of guys.Its a team that has got high hopes and its somewhere I really want to come and hopefully win a championship. ' ' '
