  导出博客文章PHOENIX -- Kenta Maeda wasnt as sharp as he has been during his successful rookie season. Cheap NBA Jerseys Free Shipping . But the right-hander from Japan was good enough to beat ace Zack Greinke and the Arizona Diamondbacks for the second time in less than two weeks.Maeda limited the Diamondbacks to a run on three hits over five innings, and the Los Angeles Dodgers held on for a 3-2 victory Friday night.Maeda (15-9) struck out six and has seven wins is his last 10 starts. He outdueled Greinke, a former Dodger who allowed only one earned run.My command was off in general today, and I wasnt able to get into my groove, Maeda said through a translator. I put a lot of pressure on the position players to pick up the slack.I just made my adjustments throughout the game.Greinke (12-7) gave up three runs on four hits, struck out four and walked four. The Dodgers lead in the NL West remained four games over second-place San Francisco.The Los Angeles bullpen held the Diamondbacks to three hits over four innings, with six relievers combining for six strikeouts. Closer Kenley Jansen gave up Chris Owings triple and a long sacrifice fly by Paul Goldschmidt in the bottom of the ninth, but got Jake Lamb to ground out into the defensive shift to end the game.Jansen set a career high in saves with his 45th, though his streak of nine straight scoreless outings ended.Reliever Joe Blanton walked the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth, but got pinch-hitter Rickie Weeks Jr. to hit into a force play to end the inning.The Dodgers scored twice off Greinke in the first inning. Chase Utley led off with a double and took third on a wild pitch. With one out, Justin Turner tripled to right field, just beating the relay throw with a slide, and came home on a passed ball.I got into some trouble early in the game, Greinke said. By then it was just about too late. After the first couple of batters I did as well as I could do.Maedas momentary lack of control in the bottom of the second helped the Diamondbacks get a run. Welington Castillo singled and Maeda walked Yasmany Tomas and Brandon Drury with one out. Mitch Hanigers fielders choice drove in Castillo, but Arizona stranded runners at the corners.With Kenta you can tell. When theres a rhythm, hes getting ahead of guys with his fastball and throwing the slider ... but hes around the zone and getting strikes, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. He didnt really have it until the fourth inning, so it was a grind for him. But he still found a way like he seemingly always does to give us a chance to win the baseball game.The Dodgers made it 3-1 in the fourth. Adrian Gonzalez scored from second base on a force when Jean Seguras throw to first for a double play got past Goldschmidt for an error. Howie Kendrick reached on the play.You cant make those mistakes in a game like this, Diamondbacks manager Chip Hale said.The Dodgers escaped with a win despite issuing seven walks. The Diamondbacks left 11 runners on base.The offense was fine, Roberts said. You know Zack was going to bring his best to atone for his last start against us. I thought that we competed very well.Segura made up for his error, at least some, by flagging down a ball hit up the middle by Maeda that looked headed for center field and an RBI. Segura threw out Maeda to end the inning.The Diamondbacks put the first two batters on base in the sixth, but Dodgers reliever Josh Fields pitched out of the jam. Arizonas bullpen held Los Angeles to one hit over three innings, but the Diamondbacks four-game win streak ended.UFC, KNIGHT IN THE HOUSEUFC athletes Forrest Griffin (retired), Cub Swanson, Johnny Case and 2008 Olympic wrestling gold medalist Henry Cejudo, who is from Phoenix, took part in the ceremonial first pitch and met with fans before Fridays game.Also, former Indiana basketball coach Bob Knight attended, watching the game from a suite.UP NEXTDodgers: Bud Norris was originally the scheduled starter, but the Dodgers will go with rookie RHP Brock Stewart on Saturday. Stewart (1-2) beat the Diamondbacks on Sept. 7 and will be making his fifth start of the season. Norris will be available out of the bullpen.Diamondbacks: RHP Shelby Miller (2-11) faces the Dodgers for the seventh time in his career and the fifth start. He is 1-2 with a 7.02 ERA in his career against L.A. NBA Jerseys China . Vettel, who has already clinched his fourth straight F1 title, enters the finale with a chance to equal Michael Schumachers 13 victories in a year and match the record of nine consecutive wins by Alberto Ascari in the 1952 and 1953 seasons. Wholesale Jerseys NBA . -- Charline Labonte couldnt have asked for a better homecoming. http://www.cheapnbajerseysauthenticonline.com/ . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate. Are the Columbus Blue Jackets for real? They sure look like it. And how about Tampa Bays response after losing Steven Stamkos? The Bolts?simply put their heads down and got to work. Have the Florida Panthers arrived? This weeks Rankings certainly have. Here we go:1. (Last week: 1)?Chicago Blackhawks, 13-4-2The Blackhawks notched wins in Calgary and Vancouver over the weekend as the circus trip rolled on. Chicagos younger forwards are starting to step up.2. (3)?New York Rangers, 13-5-1A home-and-home set with the rival Penguins looms on Monday and Wednesday. Giddy-up.3. (4) Montreal Canadiens, 14-3-2The Habs now have won 12 straight games over the Maple Leafs, but the young Buds are making it tougher on them. Saturdays 2-1 affair was a treat to watch. This age-old rivalry is entering a new phase.4. (5)?Washington Capitals, 11-5-2Has Evgeny Kuznetsov decided to take November off? Hes stuck at just seven points on the season.5. (11)?Tampa Bay Lightning, 12-6-1The surging Bolts can sweep their five-game road trip with a win on Monday night in Nashville. Life without captain Stamkos still will be a challenge, but Tampa Bay has a deep and talented forward group.6. (2)?Pittsburgh Penguins, 11-4-3After getting pasted 7-1 by the Capitals last week and suffering a 2-1 shootout loss at Buffalo, its time for the Penguins to reset. And what better way to get the juices flowing than to face the Rangers twice to kick off the week?7. (15)?Columbus Blue Jackets, 10-4-2The red-hot Jackets are 7-1-1 in November, including wins over Montreal, Anaheim, St. Louis, the Rangers and Washington (twice).8.?(16) St. Louis Blues, 10-6-3The Blues are 8-1-2 at home but just 2-5-1 on the road, where theyll be playing their next two games -- in Boston and Washington, respectively. Its time for St. Louis to get things going away from the friendly confines.9. (7) New Jersey Devils, 9-5-3Life without leading scorer Taylor Hall is going to be tough. The Devils werent exactly an offensive juggernaut with him in the lineup -- and now hell be out 3-4 weeks.10.?(12) Boston Bruins, 11-7-0Since dropping to 3-4-0 on Oct. 26, the Bruins have gone 8-3-0 as they begin to jell and look like a more cohesive unit.11. (19)?Florida Panthers, 10-8-1Have the Panthers arrived? Big wins at the Bell Centre and Madison Square Garden during their recent 3-1-0 road trip suggest so.12.?(8) Ottawa Senators, 10-7-1The Senators have dropped three of four as they get set for a big game on Tuesday night at Montreal. They beat the first-place Habs in a shootout back on Oct. 15.13.?(10) Minnesota Wild, 9-7-1Said a veteran scout to me over the weekend regarding the Wilds 1-0 win over the Bruins last Thursday, in which Devan Dubnyk and Tuukka Rask?each did their thing: That was one of the best goalie duels Ive seen in a long, long time.14.?(17) Los Angeles Kings, 10-9-1The Kings have won three in a row, including an entertaining game Sunday night across town in Anaheim. Peter Budaj keeps answering the bell.15.?(9) Anaheim Ducks, 9-7-3The Ducks, Oilers and Kings are all tied at 21 points in the topsy-turvy Pacific, with the Sharks just two points back. Hold on to your seats; this division is going down to thee wire. Wholesale Nike NBA Jerseys. 16.?(6) San Jose Sharks, 9-8-1The Sharks went 3-2-1 on their road trip and now open up a five-game homestand at the Shark Tank, beginning with New Jersey on Monday night. San Jose is only 26th in goals per game and 16th on the power play, which is kind of stunning.17.?(13) Edmonton Oilers, 10-8-1Connor McDavid?had his first NHL career hat trick Saturday in Dallas and will have many more. More important, the Oilers win snapped a five-game losing streak.18. (18) Nashville Predators, 7-7-3Im really intrigued by Monday nights home game for the Predators, with surging Tampa Bay coming to town. About a week ago, it looked like Nashville had turned a corner -- but then the Preds lost games in Toronto and St. Louis, sandwiched around a win in Ottawa.19.?(21) Dallas Stars, 7-7-5The injury-riddled Stars have dropped three of four and just keep sputtering. This is an entertaining?team built to score, but I suggest that Dallas goes back to some defensive basics for a while so it can find some footing.20.?(26) Carolina Hurricanes, 7-6-4The Hurricanes have won four in a row, including decisions over Washington and Montreal. Veteran Cam Ward?has been rock-solid in net for Carolina of late and the Hurricanes have the top-ranked PK in the league.21.?(14) Winnipeg Jets, 9-10-2Just when it looked like the Jets were ready to fly, they dropped the opening three games of their road trip. This team is better than its record.22. (19) Toronto Maple Leafs, 8-7-3The Leafs are third in goals per game and 27th in goals against per game. Theyll get better on the latter as the season goes on.23. (20) Philadelphia Flyers, 8-8-3A Flyers team that has lost five of seven now faces a tough, two-game swing through Florida and Tampa this week.24.?(28) Calgary Flames, 8-11-1Has Chad Johnson taken the No. 1 job from Brian Elliott? Johnson has been in net four consecutive games as the Flames have won three of four.25.?(20) Detroit Red Wings, 8-10-1A win over St. Louis on Oct. 27 improved the Wings to 6-2-0 on the season. Theyve since gone 2-8-1, including four straight losses.26.?(24) Colorado Avalanche, 8-9-0There has been so much focus on the Avs open goalie battle, but the real spotlight should be on the fact that Colorado is just 27th in goals per game.27.?(27) Buffalo Sabres, 6-8-4The Sabres showed real life with a shootout win over the Penguins on Saturday night, which snapped a six-game winless streak. Can they feed off that emotion?28.?(29) Vancouver Canucks, 7-10-2The Canucks blew a 3-0 third period lead Saturday night at home to Chicago in a 4-3 OT loss. Oy. The hits keep on coming.29.?(25) New York Islanders,?5-8-4This summer, John Tavares will be one year away from unrestricted free-agent status. He has always maintained that he wants to be an Islander for life. This is just my opinion, but this season needs to turn around in order for him not to challenge that loyalty.30.?(29) Arizona Coyotes, 6-9-2Mike Smith had 43 saves on Saturday night as the Coyotes snapped a four-game winless streak with an OT win over the Sharks.
