MIAMI -- When Jose Fernandez threw his final pitch of the night, he pulled up in pain, rubbed his right knee and limped to the dugout.He still looked better than his opponent.Fernandez pitched seven innings and shook off calf cramps to help the Miami Marlins beat the Kansas City Royals 3-0 and snap their nine-game winning streak Wednesday.Fernandez (13-7) grimaced after retiring Christian Colon with his ninth strikeout to end the seventh.I was cramping for the last five pitches, Fernandez said. I was sweating and changed my uniform twice. Sweating, sweating. The last pitch, when I finished I felt the cramp and I was, `Oooowwwww. I came in and took some Gatorade, and Im ready to go -- fantastic.The irrepressible Fernandez was laughing with teammates in the dugout in the ninth inning and joined in the postgame celebration on the field. When asked if the Marlins ace was indeed OK, manager Don Mattingly laughed.Did you see him after the game? Mattingly said.Fernandezs nine strikeouts increased his season total to 213, breaking the Marlins record of 209 set by Ryan Dempster in 2000. Fernandez allowed six hits and won for the first time since July 23 to snap his three-game losing streak, a career worst.From the last five or six starts, today was a little improvement, he said.Fernandez also had the Marlins first two hits, hiking his average to .286, and improved to 27-2 at Marlins Park.Christian Yelich broke a scoreless tie in the sixth with a two-run single.The Royals went 0 for 8 with runners in scoring position against Fernandez. They loaded the bases in the second, but Fernandez escaped by retiring Paulo Orlando and Colon. Their first two batters singled in the sixth, but Alex Gordon struck out and Alcides Escobar bounced into a double play.Orlando struck out in all four at-bats against Fernandez.He was just tough, Royals manager Ned Yost said. He had a really, really good slider and went to it when he got in trouble.Fernando Rodney pitched around two singles and a walk in the ninth for his 25th save and eighth with Miami. He was helped by a spectacular leaping catch by shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria to rob Escobar.That changed the game, Escobar said. I hit that ball really good. When I saw it, I said, `Oh! Thats a great play.Dillon Gee (5-7) allowed only two of the first 18 batters to reach -- and both times it was Fernandez. He had an infield single in the third and another single in the sixth, when Gee proceeded to unravel.The Marlins collected four consecutive singles, the last of them Yelichs hit to chase Gee. Marcell Ozuna followed with a sacrifice fly.I wasnt overpowering by any means, Gee said, but I felt like I threw the ball fairly well.The Royals bullpen extended its franchise-record scoreless streak to 34 2/3 innings.TRAINERS ROOMMarlins: LHP Wei-Yin Chen (sprained elbow) threw a bullpen session for the first time since being sidelined July 20, and hes on schedule to return in mid-September. ... Ozuna was back in the lineup after leaving Tuesdays game to be with his pregnant wife, who became ill and was briefly taken to the hospital. She and the baby were doing fine Wednesday, Ozuna said.Royals: LHP Mike Minor, who has not pitched in the majors since 2014 after suffering a torn labrum in 2015, is being shut down for the year after struggling in several rehab starts.UP NEXTRHP Edinson Volquez (9-10, 5.04) is scheduled to face Marlins RHP Tom Koehler (9-8, 3.82) in the series finale. Volquez is 6-0 in seven career starts against Miami. Koehler is 3-0 over his past six starts with a 1.62 ERA. Trevor Ariza Jersey .

Vaives lawyer Trevor Whiffen claims the former 50-goal man wasnt provided with a copy of the claim beforehand and that he would not have agreed to the allegations made against the NHL had he been asked to review its contents. https://www.cheapwizardsonline.com/179k-bailey-howell-jersey-wizards.html . Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview.

DAmigo scored twice in regulation and added the shootout winner as the Toronto Marlies edged the San Antonio Rampage 5-4 in American Hockey League action. Phil Chenier Jersey . The Barrie Colts defenceman, who impressed many with his play for Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship, is the top-ranked skater in the February rankings.

MEXICO CITY -- Its been a wild season for young Max Verstappen.The talented Dutch teenager has been promoted to Red Bull, become the youngest winner in Formula One history and bickered with some of the top teams and drivers in the sport. His aggressive tactics have even prompted a rules clarification for safety.Mad Max is brash, wont be intimidated and to many, hes a much-needed dose of excitement for Formula One and a future champion. The kid seized on his chance to be fast and famous and wont let go.Why wait? Verstappen said. I have a great car, a great team, and I want it all as quickly as possible.Verstappen is squeezing everything he can into this season as Formula One races this week in Mexico City. At the U.S. Grand Prix in Texas last week, Verstappen provided days of drama worthy of a 19-year-old still learning how to navigate a grown-up sport.The teams had barely left Japan two weeks earlier when Mercedes considered, then opted not to file a complaint over his defensive moves against Lewis Hamilton in a braking zone. Verstappen finished second and Hamiltons third-place finish pushed him further back in the 2016 title chase against teammate Nico Rosberg.By the time drivers got to Austin, several used their Friday meeting to complain about their precocious rival. Having heard similar comments several times this season, Formula One officials issued a rule clarification: blocking during braking would be deemed illegal and punished. It took about 10 minutes for the media to call it the Verstappen Rule.He shrugged.Maybe they can get past (me), now, Verstappen said.Conflicts have also flared in the Red Bull garage.After getting an early warning during the race to save his tires, Verstappen barked over his car radio that hes not here to finish fourth! A few laps later, he mistakenly went into a pit stop without a team order. He was out of the race a few laps later with a gearbox problem.Even that disrupted teammate Daniel Ricciardo. Unable to race but still mobile, Verstappen tried to nurse his car around the track before he eventually pulled over and stoppeed.dddddddddddd. That brought out a yellow flag, which meant Ricciardo lost valuable time in his battle for second with Rosberg. Ricciardo finished third.When I saw Max out there, I thought, `Ah hell, my boys done it again. That was a devastating moment, but well keep soldiering on, Ricciardo said.Team leadership was not amused.We have 80 engineers and strategists, but its all useless if a driver decides alone to come into the pits, Red Bull racing consultant Helmut Marko told Autoweek.Verstappen is the son of race driver Jos Verstappen, who made 106 career Formula One starts, and his talent caught a lot of attention from teams growing up. Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff tried to sign Verstappen when he was 14 before Red Bull snagged him.Wolff, whose drivers are chasing each other for the teams third consecutive championship, has alternately called Verstappen refreshing and dangerous and has even compared him to Formula Ones revered Ayrton Senna.He comes in here with no fear, no respect, puts the elbows out, Wolff said earlier this season.That approach has worn thin on some teams, most notably Ferrari and its two former world champion drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen. Raikkonen has warned Verstappen could cause a massive accident with his driving.But Verstappens critics have done most of their shouting at him from the rear. Before his car failed him in Texas, Verstappen finished second in Malaysia and Japan. His five podium finishes in the last 10 races are three more than Vettel and Raikkonen combined.And back in Spain, when the Mercedes cars knocked each other out in a first-lap crash, Verstappen leaped to the front and doggedly held off Raikkonen for his first career victory in his first race for Red Bull.Verstappen drives with swagger and a win Sunday in Mexico would come on his 20th birthday. His critics have done little damage to his confidence or skills behind the wheel.No, Verstappen said. I am a grown-up boy. ' ' '
