The Toronto Blue Jays will attempt to start another winning streak on Saturday when they face the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park in the third of four consecutive meetings. Stitched Michigan State Jerseys . Toronto had won six straight games entering Fridays battle with Houston, but a 3-1 loss put that streak to rest. With the game tied 1-1 in the bottom of the eighth inning, Gregorio Petit hit his first career home run to give the Astros a 2-1 edge. Robbie Grossman added an insurance run in the frame when his sacrifice fly brought in Jose Altuve. Chad Qualls then pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his 12th save and give the Astros the win, their third in the last five games. Toronto wasted a stellar outing from J.A. Happ in the loss. The left-hander allowed just one run over seven innings, but his squad only managed six hits in support. R.A. Dickey will take aim at his 10th win of the season on Saturday when he starts for Toronto. Although Dickey has a Cy Young award to his credit, he has only reached double digit victories three times in his previous 11 MLB seasons, although he has done so in three of the last four seasons. He is currently 9-10 with an ERA of 3.91 in 23 starts, which is tied for the most in baseball. Dickeys last start was a strong showing, as he allowed just a single run over seven innings while posting a season-best 10 strikeouts against Boston. The Blue Jays won that contest 14-1 and have won Dickeys last two starts. This will be Dickeys second start of the year against Houston. In the first, which came on April 10, he lasted seven innings, but allowed five runs in a 6-4 loss. In his career he is 2-3 with a 4.29 ERA against the Astros. Left-hander Brett Oberholtzer will toe the rubber for the Astros in Saturdays contest. Oberholtzer is just 3-7 on the campaign, with a mediocre ERA of 4.30. He has pitched fairly well in his last three games, with an ERA of 3.15 in those starts. Both of his last two starts came against Oakland. He let up three runs in 6 2/3 innings last Monday after tying a season-high by pitching seven innings of two-run ball six days prior in Oakland. On April 8 Oberholtzer made his first career appearance against Toronto. He allowed three runs on as many hits over 5 1/3 innings in taking his second loss of the campaign. Earlier in the season, Toronto took two of three from Houston.

The Packers, Lions and Bears were a combined 35-15 and as long as Jay Cutler can say healthy, all three could make the playoffs in 2012. http://www.cheapmichiganstatejerseys.com/ . - The first sign that Kansas Speedway was going to be a heartbreaker for Hendrick Motorsports should have come during qualifying when Jimmie Johnson inexplicably spun and earned one of his worst starting spots since 2005. PASADENA, Calif. -- Jameis Winston and Florida State faced down adversity for the first time this season, and showed they could take a punch if thats what it took to win a national championship. The Heisman Trophy winner threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Kelvin Benjamin with 13 seconds left and No. 1 Florida State beat No. 2 Auburn 34-31 to win the BCS championship game on Monday night. "Theres a lot of heart and guts down in Tallahassee, too," coach Jimbo Fisher said. The Bowl Championship Series went out with a bang, with one of the best championship games in its 16-year history. And the Southeastern Conferences seven-year winning streak in college footballs biggest game was snapped. Winston struggled much of the night but was near perfect when the Seminoles (14-0) needed it most, going 6 for 7 for 77 yards on the game-winning 80 yard drive. A pass interference penalty on Auburns Chris Davis gave Florida State a first-and-goal at the 2 and on the next play Winston hit his big receiver, Benjamin, for the touchdown in traffic. There was no miracle finish this time for the turnaround Tigers. They tossed the ball around on one final play, but it ended with Florida State jumping on a fumble, and the Seminoles sprinting onto the field under a storm of garnet and gold confetti. Tre Mason had given Auburn (12-2) a 31-27 lead with a 37-yard touchdown run with 1:19 left after Kermit Whitfield had put Florida State in the lead for the first time since the first quarter with a 100-yard kickoff return to make it 27-24 with 4:31 left. Mason ran for 195 yards and Nick Marshall threw two touchdown passes for the Tigers. "I told them in the locker room, we put together the biggest turnaround in the history of college football. We were on the brink of making it one of those magical seasons," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. Winston was 20 for 35 for 237 yards and two fourth-quarter touchdown passes. Florida State hadnt been challenged like this all season, winning by an average of 42 points. The redshirt freshman, who turned 20 Monday, told his teammates: "I said Guys, we didnt come here for no reason. I said Yall, this is ours, man." The Seminoles were down 21-3 in the first half, and wobbling, but never fell over. And now Florida State is national champion for the first time since 1999, the first team to win it after being down at halftime. Winston was jumpy against a strong Auburn pass rush, led by Dee Ford. He was sacked four times. The Seminoles cut it to 21-10 with a late touchdown in the second quarter and chipped into Auburns lead with a 41-yard field goal by Roberto Aguayo with 6:05 left in the third. Meanwhile, Florida State had found some answers to Auburns spread offence. A holding penalty that wiped out a long pass also helped keep the Tigers scoreless in the third quarter, and the Seminoles began the fourth with P.J. Williams intercepting Marshalls pass and setting up Florida State at its 38. When Winston tossed in the flats to Chad Abram, who hurdled over a tackler on the way to an 11-yard touchdown the lead was 21-19. Florida State was considering going for two to tie, but Devonta Freeman was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct and that pushed the extra point back 15 yards and forced the Seminoles to kick and make it 21-20. Auburn responded wwith its best drive since the second quarter, mixing runs by Mason and Marshall with one big pass to Ricardo Louis. Keith Appling College Jersey. . But it stalled at the 6 and Cody Parkey added a 22-yard field goal to make it 24-20 with 4:42 left. During Winstons record-breaking season, filled with blowouts and fourth quarters spent watching from the sideline, he never faced a situation in which he had to drive his team to a winning score. Now he had a chance to add that last line to his remarkable resume -- until Whitfield handled it for him. Whitfield broke through a seam around the 30 and hit the sideline at full speed. Fisher ran down the other sideline yelling "Go! Go!" with Winston chasing behind pumping his arms and slapping his coach on the back. Florida State was on top, but Auburn was not done. Mason and Marshall went to work, driving Auburn into Florida State territory, and Auburns Heisman finalist, Mason, finished it off by bowling over Florida State safety Jalen Ramsey on the way to the end zone. Auburn billed itself as a team of destiny, having gone from 3-9 to SEC champs under first-year coach Malzahn -- with the help of some miraculous finishes. But for much of the first half team destiny, the 10-point underdog, was dominating. Marshall flipped into the flats for Mason, who followed a few wipe-out blocks and zipped into the end zone for a 12-yard score with 3:07 left in the first quarter. Florida State trailed for the first time since Sept. 28 against Boston College. The hole got deeper. With Florida States linebackers and safeties peeking into the backfield again, Auburn broke another receiver free down the middle. Marshall threw a strike this time to Melvin Ray, who went 50 yards for his first career touchdown and a 14-3 lead. Meanwhile, for maybe the first time this season, Winston looked rattled. After completing three of his first four passes, he went 1 for 7, including a simple short throw that sailed high and missed its target by at least 10 yards. Fisher could be seen yelling to his coaches that they needed to calm down Winston. Auburns defence certainly didnt look as if it ranked 89th in the country in yards allowed per game. Ford was getting pressure on Winston, Chris Davis defended three passes and the Tigers D was playing like so many other SEC defences that have controlled so many other BCS championship games during the conferences reign over college football. Ben Bradley and Angelo Blackson sandwiched Winston as he tried to tuck and run and the ball came loose. Auburn recovered at Florida States 27 and soon after Marshall swept in from 4 yards out for a 21-3 lead with 5:01 left in the first half. Florida State finally came alive with the help of some trickery and some old-fashioned want-to from Winston. Facing fourth-and-4 in their own territory, the Seminoles faked the punt and ran a reverse to Karlos Williams that went for 7 yards. Then Winston asserted himself in not the typical way for the most efficient passer in the country. On third-and-7, he broke free of the pocket, stiff-armed past one Auburn tackler and went for 21 yards to the 3. Freeman plunged into the end zone on the next play to make it 21-10 with 1:28 left in the half. Fisher patted Winston on the helmet as the quarterback shook his head, as if to say, Im better now.
