    VANNES, France - A slow start and a string of mistakes cost Canada in a 23-13 loss to Samoa in a rugby test match Friday.The Samoans put off-the-field issues aside for the evening in bouncing back from last weeks 24-13 loss to Italy. Upset at the Samoa Rugby Unions management style and pay, the 11th-ranked Samoans had threatened to boycott next weeks game against England until the International Rugby Board stepped in. Mike Stanley, in his first start for Samoa, kicked 13 points and the Pacific Islanders never trailed on a wet pitch at Stade de la Rabine.The 17th-ranked Canadians, who had a much better second half, closed the gap to 16-13 with less than 10 minutes remaining but gifted the Samoans a try on the ensuing restart and never recovered.Stanley made five of eight kicks — three penalties and two conversions. The New Zealand-born England-raised fly half, who qualifies for Samoa through his father, made his Samoa debut last week in the loss to No. 14 Italy that dropped the Samoans two places in the world rankings.Replacement prop Anthony Perenise and back Winston Stanley — no relation to Mike or the former Canadian star winger of the same name — scored tries for Samoa.Outside centre Conor Trainor scored Canadas lone try, which was converted by James Pritchard.

Stanley put Samoa up 9-0 on three penalties before McRorie hit back with a kick from the halfway line.Trainor was sent to the sin-bin in the 28th minute as referee Gordon Clancy produced the yellow card for persistent infringement by Canada. Samoa led 9-3 at the half.A different Canadian side came out in the second half and attacked the Samoans, narrowing the gap to 9-6 with an early McRorie penalty kick.Winger DTH van der Merwe made a fine run down the sideline, only to lose his balance on the wet turf. Canada missed another chance when McRorie dropped the ball near the goal-line after a slashing run by Trainor.Perenise scored the first try of the game in the 60th minute, rumbling over the line. Trainors converted try in the 71st minute drew Canada within three at 16-13 and it seemed game on.But on the ensuing restart, Nanyak Dalas pass to Patrick Parfrey deflected back and Samoa recovered, with Winston Stanley going over the try.English-born flanker Richard Thorpe came on in the 56th minute for his first Canadian cap.

Hyun-Jin Ryu outpitched Adam Wainwright with seven innings of three-hit ball, and Yasiel Puig celebrated twice on his RBI triple that helped Los Angeles beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-0 Monday night in Game 3. Adrian Gonzalezs RBI double ended a 1-for-17 drought for the Dodgers with runners in scoring position. An ailing Hanley Ramirez added a run-scoring hit as Los Angeles handed Wainwright his first post-season loss and trimmed its deficit to 2-1 in the best-of-seven series. "The playoffs are one-day momentum swings," Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. "Right now I feel like weve kind of grabbed it." Puigs youthful exuberance, which energized the Dodgers as they surged from last place to first during a torrid midseason stretch, was on full display in the fourth inning. The 22-year-old Cuban defector was so excited when he connected that he raised his arms immediately and stood in the batters box to watch the flight of the ball toward right field, clearly thinking it was going out of the park. Once he realized it wasnt, Puig started charging. He roared into third base and clapped his hands before raising them again as the sellout crowd of 53,940 cheered. Puig had reason to exult, having struck out seven times in the series before getting his first hit. "He brings unbelievable energy every day," Ramirez said. "When we spoke to him, he told me, I got it today, and he did. Hes a great player." Game 4 is Tuesday at Dodger Stadium, with Ricky Nolasco scheduled to start against St. Louis right-hander Lance Lynn. But there was speculation the Dodgers might switch to Zack Greinke, especially after they passed over Nolasco with short notice in the previous round. "Everybodys trying to do the best they can to get to the World Series," Puig said through a translator. Los Angeles got Ramirez and centre fielder Andre Ethier back in the lineup after both proved in batting practice they were healthy enough to play. Ramirez wore a lightweight flak jacket to protect his broken left rib -- having been hit by a pitch from Joe Kelly in Game 1 -- while Ethier has been bothered by shin splints. "What can I say? It couldnt be better," Ramirez said. "Really happy we got the first win. Just come back tomorrow and even up the series." Ramirez singled his first time up off Wainwright and then helped the Dodgers extend their lead to 3-0 in the eighth. Ramirez hit a soft single off Seth Maness over the head of second baseman Kolten Wong to score Carl Crawford. The speedy Crawford, on second base after a one-out single, rounded third and never stopped running when the throw from the outfield went to second base. On a close play at the plate, Crawford barely beat the tag by catcher Yadier Molina. "We just had a lot of balls in the air tonight that hit the ground that normally dont," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "Were a better club than this." During the rally, retired Dodgers manager Tom Lasorda, whose 1988 team won the franchises last World Series title, stood up and waved his white rally towel to raucous applause. "We just knew we had to scratch away and get a win," Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis said. "We needed a great starting pitching performance from Hyun-Jin, and we got that. You knew it was going to be tough sledding against a guy like Adam. Hes so good, especially on the big stage, so we were fortunate we scratched a couple of runs across." Wainwright entered 4-0 with a 2.03 ERA and four saves inn 15 career post-season games, including six starts.dddddddddddd He pitched St. Louis past Pittsburgh in the division series, going the distance in a decisive Game 5 last Wednesday. The right-hander tossed seven strong innings this time, allowing two runs and six hits with five strikeouts and no walks. Ryu, however, was even better. "I hate to lose," Wainwright said. "I felt like tonight if I had got a couple of balls in there, we win the game. I think you just have to tip your hat and move on." The two pitchers were nearly even through the first three scoreless innings, with Wainwright giving up one hit. Ryu, who struggled in his first post-season start in the division series against Atlanta, retired 12 of his first 13 batters, yielding only a walk. "I just zoned in," Ryu said. Ryu was much improved after lasting just three innings as the first South Korean pitcher to start a playoff game last week against the Braves. He allowed four runs on six hits for a no-decision in a game the Dodgers won. The left-hander didnt permit a Cardinals runner past second base. David Freeses single to right leading off the fifth was their first hit of the game. Freese was replaced by a pinch-runner because of tightness in his right calf. He is day to day. Ryu struck out four and walked one. Mattingly came out to the mound accompanied by a translator with two outs in the seventh. Ryu responded by striking out Matt Adams to end the inning as Ellis pumped his right arm in the air. Fans waved South Korean flags in support of Ryu. "Its definitely a big motivation when you see your star players go out there hurt," Ryu said through a translator. "It really inspires you and motivates you to go out there and do the best you can." Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect ninth for a save. Major League Baseball noted on Twitter that the nine combined runs in the series are the fewest ever through three games of a league championship series, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. After the first two games in St. Louis were decided by one run, the Dodgers got to Wainwright in the fourth and took a 2-0 lead. Gonzalezs double down the right-field line scored Mark Ellis, who doubled leading off. Gonzalez smacked his hands together in a celebratory gesture resembling an explosion. "I saw Adrian doing some Mickey Mouse stuff at second," Wainwright said. Gonzalez replied: "I did what I always do. Mickey Mouse is only an hour away so, you know, it fits us." With two outs, Puig tripled off the wall in right to snap his 0-for-11 skid in the series. Cardinals centre fielder Jon Jay was involved in an apparent miscommunication when the ball hit by Mark Ellis dropped between him and right fielder Carlos Beltran. The Dodgers first hit, a single by Ramirez to shallow centre in the first, dropped between Jay and second baseman Matt Carpenter. "Its a ball Ive got to catch. Im the centre fielder. Its my ball. Ive got to take charge," Jay said. "It came back to haunt us, but thats part of baseball. Youre going to make mistakes sometimes." NOTES: The Dodgers snapped a stretch of 22 innings without a run in the fourth. They hadnt scored since the third inning of Game 1. ... Ethier was 0 for 4 with a strikeout. ... Dusty Baker, Reggie Smith, Ron Cey and Steve Garvey -- baseballs first 30-homer quartet in 1977 -- tossed ceremonial first pitches. That Dodgers team won the NL pennant before losing to the Yankees in six games in the World Series. ... Neither team has a home run through the first three games. ... Among the famous faces in attendance were Dustin Hoffman and Ice Cube.
