ARLINGTON, Texas -- When Tampa Bay finished its regular season at Texas three years ago, it was a 163rd game for the AL wild-card tiebreaker.The Rays won that game in 2013, and won the wild-card game against Cleveland before falling to Boston in the AL Division Series.This time, even with a 6-4 win in 10 innings Sunday at the AL West champion Rangers, the Rays finished their third consecutive losing season since that last playoff appearance.(Happy with) the fight, yeah, but not the performance. Theres a big difference between having fight and going out and performing and getting it done, manager Kevin Cash said. Weve got to get better at that. We have every intention of that. We will. The effort level remained consistent and were happy with the overall effort level.Alexei Ramirez had four hits as Tampa Bay ended with back-to-back wins over the Rangers (95-67), who had already clinched home-field advantage throughout the postseason.The Rays (68-94) finished with their worst record since going 66-96 in 2007, the year before going to their only World Series.Something weve talked about it so many times is just inconsistency, said Evan Longoria, who finished with 36 homers and 98 RBI. But it was nice to finish with a win today. We gave up the lead late and came right back in the next inning and picked up a couple runs.Closer Alex Colome (2-4) allowed three consecutive singles in the ninth that allowed the Rangers to tie the game at 4 and force extra innings. It was only his third blown save in 40 chances this season.The Rays then opened the 10th with three consecutive hits off Tanner Scheppers (1-1). Richie Shaffer led off with a single before going to third on Ramirezs double and scoring on a wild pitch. Curt Casali then had an RBI double, his second RBI in the game.Erasmo Ramirez, the seventh Rays pitcher and 14th in the game, worked a perfect 10th for his second save.Knuckleball rookie reliever Eddie Gamboa worked two scoreless innings with four strikeouts for the Rays. He was in line for his first major league victory at age 31, and exactly a month after his major league debut, before the Rangers scored runs in the eighth and ninth inning after he was out of the game.Im very hopeful but at the same time I know theres a lot that I have to work on, Gamboa said. Thats why Im so excited about the offseason to work on some stuff and come back stronger with more consistency. Again, just try to do the same as this year and eat up innings as best as I can.When Gamboa made his major league debut Sept. 2, he was the second-oldest player ever to do so for the Rays. The only older was 35-year-old Jim Morris in 1999, the lefty whose story was chronicled in the 2002 Walt Disney movie, The Rookie.Theres going to be a lot of conversations about the bullpen. There will be plenty of opportunities, Cash said, when asked about Gamboa. Its a different look, to complement a hard-throwing guy behind him or in front of him. Its an interesting concept that well continue to look into.EXTRA EXTRAWith six doubles in the finale, the Rays ended the season with 536 extra-base hits, breaking the previous club record of 532 set in 2009.TRAINERS ROOMRays: CF Kevin Kiermaier missed the finale with a bruised left calf after getting hit by a pitch in Saturday nights game.

The Canucks have lost five straight games and six of their last seven, leaving them in a logjam in the Pacific Division, currently sitting fifth - good for ninth in the Western Conference.

And, for three quarters, it showed as Gay shot a woeful three-for-13 from the field. http://www.airforceforsalecheap.com/ . It might not have mattered. While the Dodgers are preparing for the playoffs, the Padres showed their future has promise behind two rookies. Nike Air Force 1 Cheap Outlet . PETERSBURG, Fla.

Mexicos Misael Rodriguez, who claimed a bronze medal at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, has signed a promotional agreement with Richard Schaefers Ringstar Sports.Terms of the deal, which was announced Wednesday, were not disclosed.Rodriguezs medal in the middleweight competition was the first for a Mexican boxer since Cristian Bejarano claimed a lightweight bronze medal in the 2000 Sydney Games.After I came back from the Olympics, I knew that it was time to start my professional career, Rodriguez said. I am excited to have signed with Ringstar Sports. I have always appreciated Richard Schaefers approach on developing talent into boxing stars. When the time came, picking my promoter was easy. I knew that this is where I wanted to be.Schaefer, the former chief executive and co-founder of Golden Boy Promotions, left the company 2? years ago after a falling out with co-founder and principal owner Oscar De La Hoya. In June, Schaefer founded Ringstar Sports.Last month, Schaefer signed his first two fighters, 2016 U.S. Olympic lightweight representative Carlos Balderas and his brother, bantamweight Jose Balderas. Now Schaefer has his third fighter and is excited to have signed a crowd-pleaser in the 22-year-old Rodriguez.Hes very exciting, Schaefer said. Hes not as polished or advanced as Carlos Balderas, but he is exciting and he comes to fight, and that is what I like. While I appreciate the sweet science, fans like to see toe-to-toe action, and that is his style.Hes going to be the ultimate entertainer and will follow in the footsteps of some of the great Mexican warriors who go and thrill the fans. We are going to take it slow, but he has that it factor. He knows how to entertain. His personality, his laugh, his smile -- absolutely incredible and that is what really attracted me. Hes a nice, polite, kind young man who loves to entertain fans.Schaefer said Rodriguez likely will fight professionally either in the 160-pound middleweight division or 154-pound junior middleweight division. His pro debut, Schaefer said, probably will take place in February in Los Angeles on the same card on which the Balderas brothers will have their pro debuts.Im thrilled to be adding anotther promising young potential superstar in Misael Rodriguez to the Ringstar lineup, Schaefer said.dddddddddddd This is a young man who has overcome every obstacle thrown his way. He is mentally strong, has great skills and I expect him to have a very long, successful career. Im looking forward to helping Misael and his family achieve their goals, and I hope to make him a household name in the sport.Rodriguez went 104-22 as an amateur and claimed bronze medals at the 2014 La Romana Cup, the Independence Cup and the Pan-American Sports Festival, in addition to a silver medal at the Veracruz Central American and Caribbean games. In 2016 he earned a silver medal at the American Olympic Qualifier. He is anxious to get his pro career going.I look forward to showing the world the passion and heart I have for the sport I love, Rodriguez said. Becoming a world champion has always been a childhood dream, and now it is my No. 1 goal.Adorno signs with Top Rank?Junior lightweight Joseph Adorno, a 17-year-old born in Union City, New Jersey, and raised in Puerto Rico, signed with Top Rank, the company announced.Adorno, who was 178-22 in the amateur ranks, made his professional debut on Dec. 2 and scored a first-round knockout of Guy Newman at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia.I can do it all in the ring, but my main plan is to stay calm, use my jab and a lot of hard combinations, Adorno said of his fighting style. If I have to box, I box. If I have to go get the fight, I go get the fight.Adorno is co-managed and co-trained by his father, Anibal Adorno, and Robert Garcia, one of boxings elite trainers.Adorno was a bronze medalist at the 2016 National Golden Gloves at 132 pounds and won gold medals at the 2015 Junior Olympic National Championship and 2015 USA Junior National Championships at 125 pounds.Hes got a bright future.
