Seahawks top Chiefs 17-16 in preseason opener

Sports

August 14th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Trevone Boykin engineered a last-minute, 88-yard touchdown drive in four plays, hitting Tanner McEvoy with a 37-yard scoring pass, and Tyvis Pope scored the 2-point conversion with no time remaining, lifting the Seattle Seahawks to a 17-16 victory Saturday over Kansas City.

Boykin, competing with veteran Jake Heaps to be Russell Wilson’s backup, replaced Wilson after one possession and had some good and some not-so-good moments before getting going on the final drive. The clock showed 0:00 when McEvoy out-positioned and out-jumped Malcolm Jackson in the end zone, bringing the Seahawks to within one point in a game they had trailed all day.

Then the Chiefs were flagged for having 12 men on the field, moving the ball to the 1, and Pope went off left guard to score the winner. Boykin, a star at TCU who was not drafted, was 16 for 26 for 188 yards. Keeping the winning drive alive, he had a scrambling 15-yard run. It was second-and-9 when he lofted the pass to McEvoy, who was waiting in the end zone for the ball.

For the first 59 minutes, the Chiefs dominated, getting a touchdown drive from Alex Smith on their first possession and three field goals from Cairo Santos. Steven Hauschka also had three field goals for the Seahawks.

CHICAGO (AP) — Randal Grichuk hit a grand slam that capped a six-run burst in the eighth inning and the St. Louis Cardinals stopped the Cubs’ 11-game winning streak, beating Chicago 8-4 Saturday.

After a run-scoring wild pitch and a bases-loaded walk with two outs in the eighth put the Cardinals ahead 4-2, Grichuk connected. Brandon Moss and Jedd Gyorko also homered for St. Louis. Addison Russell hit his 14th homer for the NL Central-leading Cubs.

Wesley Bryan leads rain-delayed John Deere Classic

Sports

August 12th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

SILVIS, Ill. (AP) — Wesley Bryan took the lead in the rain-delayed John Deere Classic on Friday, five days after earning a PGA Tour card with his third Web.com Tour victory of the year. Bryan played 26 holes in 10 under Friday at TPC Deere Run, birdieing three of the final holes to finish off a first-round 66 and shooting a 64 in the second to reach 12-under 130.

Area favorite Zach Johnson faced a long day Saturday after not even getting onto the course Friday. Play resumed five hours late at noon after nearly 2.4 inches of rain overnight — on top of the inch Thursday morning and afternoon that delayed play 3 1/2 hours. Because of the wet conditions, the players were allowed use preferred lies in the fairways in the second round.

Bryan has made a fast rise since focusing on tournament golf last year after working as a trick-shot artist. The 26-year-old former South Carolina player dominated the Web.com Tour this season, winning in Louisiana, Mexico and Kansas and earning $449,392 in 13 starts.

Steve Marino was a stroke back after rounds of 66 and 65. Johnson opened with a 65 on Thursday. The 2012 tournament winner is from Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Holliday, Cardinals consider options for his broken thumb

Sports

August 12th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

CHICAGO (AP) — St. Louis outfielder Matt Holliday will have his broken right thumb re-examined early next week, then he and the Cardinals will decide on treatments including surgery or letting the injury heal on its own, according to GM John Mozeliak. Holliday, who saw the team’s hand specialist in Chicago on Friday morning, is out indefinitely after getting hit by a pitch in the Cardinals’ 4-3, 11-inning loss to the Cubs on Thursday night. Neither Mozeliak or manager Mike Matheny could offer a specific timetable for the slugger’s return.

“I haven’t talked to him,” Matheny said. “What I did hear kind of confirmed what they saw yesterday. Now I’ve got to figure out how to move forward.” Cubs reliever Mike Montgomery plunked Holliday, a seven-time All-Star, with a 94 mph fastball on a 1-1 count with two outs and nobody on in the 10th on Thursday night. An X-ray showed the break.

The 36-year-old Holliday was in the clubhouse before Friday’s game against the Cubs and was joking with teammates, even though his right hand was wrapped.

Cubs win 11th straight, Szczur hits 2 HRs to rout Cardinals

Sports

August 12th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

CHICAGO (AP) — Matt Szczur hit two home runs and the Chicago Cubs won their 11th straight game, backing Jake Arrieta and battering Adam Wainwright to rout the St. Louis Cardinals 13-2 Friday. Willson Contreras launched a three-run shot to cap a five-run second inning, and Javier Baez and Jorge Soler also went deep to make things easy for Arrieta (14-5).

The Cubs’ winning streak is their longest since a 12-game run in 2001. They pulled 14 games ahead of scuffling St. Louis in the NL Central and improved the best record in the majors to 73-41. Szczur, who recorded his first multihomer game, and Kris Bryant each had three hits. The Cubs roughed up Wainwright (9-7) for seven runs and chased him after two innings, tying his shortest outing in 245 career starts.

Arrieta pitched one-run ball into the sixth inning and gave up four hits overall. Stephen Piscotty and Jedd Gyorko homered for the Cardinals, who remain in a tight race for the second NL wild card despite dropping six of their last nine.
