  导出博客文章WASHINGTON -- The San Jose Sharks used a tight-checking defense and solid goaltending to snap a three-game losing streak and get a lengthy road trip off to a positive start. Harrison Smith Jersey .Martin Jones stopped 24 shots and Brent Burns scored his fifth goal of the season to lead the Sharks past the Washington Capitals 3-0 on Tuesday night.Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Burns had second-period goals for the defending Western Conference champions, who scored only four goals during their three-game slide.That was a big win for us, just to kind of right the ship a little bit, Jones said. Weve had moments where weve been good, and today everything kind of came our way.It was Jones 14th career shutout and the first of the season for the Sharks, who were coming off a 5-0 loss at home to Pittsburgh.We defended really well.

San Jose blunted three power plays and has killed 27 of the last 28.I didnt think we played poorly at all, Capitals coach Barry Trotz said. They did a really good job defending, so you had to really fight to get in the interior. I dont think we had the desperation we needed until the third period.Washington took 10 shots in the third period, none of which severely challenged Jones.We defended well, Jones said. The looks that they did get, those are the saves they expect you to make.It was the first shutout against Washington during the regular season since April 10.Vlasic broke the scoreless duel at 12:23 of the second period, notching his second goal of the season with a shot that deflected off Capitals defenseman Karl Alzner and past goaltender Braden Holtby.Burns made it 2-0 at 17:26 with a wrist shot from the right circle that whizzed inside Holtbys left shoulder. Burns had an unobstructed view of the net because Washingtons defense crowded low around Logan Couture, who passed to his wide-open teammate.The way they were playing, when they got that second goal I thought it would be a tough hole to come out of, Trotz said.That was more than enough backing for Jones, who came in with a 5-6 record and a 2.56 goals-against average. His last shutout came against Arizona on April 9.San Jose outshot the Capitals 9-4 during a first period in which each team failed to convert a power play.

Nick Franklin hit his first career grand slam in Seattles big second inning to back up a scoreless start by Hernandez, and the Mariners rolled past the Houston Astros 12-5 on Sunday for their season-best sixth straight victory. Franklins slam, Seattles fifth this season, came off Jordan Lyles (4-4) in a seven-run second. Hernandez (11-4) scattered four hits with seven strikeouts over six innings to lower his AL-leading ERA to 2.43. He is 6-0 in his last 10 starts and hasnt lost since May 25. The Mariners were up 7-0 in the third inning against the Angels on June 20 before Hernandez was tagged for a season-high seven runs over the next three innings as Los Angeles rallied for a 10-9 win. "Im sure it was in the back of everyones mind, but he was a different animal today," Seattle manager Eric Wedge said. "Hes one of those guys, it might happen once, but its not going to happen again. I thought he did a good job against them. They made him work. But he did a good job and made pitches." Hernandez said he didnt think about that game against the Angels, he simply appreciated getting so much run support early. "Oh yeah, man, its fun to pitch like that," he said. "The last few weeks weve been scoring a lot of runs. Weve just got to continue to do that and were going to win a lot of games." Brad Miller, Dustin Ackley and Michael Saunders drove in two runs each to help the Mariners wrap up a three-game sweep. Lyles yielded eight hits and 10 runs, with a career-high nine earned, in four-plus innings to lose his third consecutive decision "It snowballed," Lyles said. "From the get-go, I was missing around the zone. I wasnt quite hitting targets. I was just a little bit off. It really came down to fastball command." The Mariners piled up 13 hits, a day after managing just one in a 4-2 win. Wedge liked that his team continued to pad the lead after going up by seven early. "A lot of times youll see that: You get a big lead and you dont do anything the rest of the game," Wedge said. "I thought our guys did a good job of staying hungry." Hernandez didnt allow a runner past first base until the fifth when Justin Maxwell reached on an error by Miller at shortstop and went to second on a wild pitch. Stefon Diggs Jersey. Maxwell advanced to third on a one-out single by Jake Elmore, but Hernandez left Houston empty-handed when Jose Altuve grounded into a double play. Kendrys Morales singled to open the Seattle second and Kyle Seager reached on an error at shortstop by Elmore. Michael Saunders drew a one-out walk to load the bases before an infield single by Ackley made it 1-0. A second run came home when Lyles plunked Henry Blanco with a pitch. Millers RBI single pushed the lead to 3-0 before the grand slam by Franklin, off to an impressive start in his rookie season. "It was definitely a great bounce-back from yesterday and only having the one hit," Franklin said of jumping on Houston early. "But at the same time, weve been swinging it well and it was just one of those adjustment periods we had to go through and get back after it the next day." Lyles retired Raul Ibanez before finally escaping the inning when Morales came up again and grounded out. Lyles settled down after that and retired six of his next seven batters. Things started going awry again in the fifth when Ibanez led off with a double before an RBI single by Morales made it 8-0. Lyles hit Seager with a pitch and was chased by Justin Smoaks single. Saunders grounded into a force out to add another run and the Mariners went up 10-0 on a sacrifice fly by Ackley. Miller pushed the lead to 11-0 with an RBI single in the seventh, and Saunders extended his career-best hitting streak to 10 games with an RBI double in the eighth. The Astros got a run-scoring single from Altuve in the seventh and tacked on four runs in the ninth to make it 12-5.
