SAN DIEGO -- Archie Bradley had a pretty decent night for the Arizona Diamondbacks, allowing two hits and two runs in five innings while striking out seven at spacious Petco Park.He ended up with a no-decision, though.Adam Rosales homered and drove in four runs, and rookie Ryan Schimpf scored three times to lead the San Diego Padres to a 5-2 victory Tuesday night.Kind of weird, only two hits, gave up two runs -- just a funny game sometimes, said Bradley, who walked three. You never know how things are going to affect you, but the hit-by-a-pitch and the walk came back to really hurt me tonight. I was honesty really pleased with staying composed the way I did in those two innings, coming back and striking guys out to get through the inning. But overall pretty pleased with it.The start of the game was delayed 70 minutes by rain. It was only the seventh delay in Petco Parks 13-season history, the sixth because of rain. The other one was due to a swarm of bees during a game in 2009.Arizona dropped into sole possession of last place in the NL West.Paul Goldschmidt hit a tying, two-run homer for the Diamondbacks with two outs in the sixth inning off starter Paul Clemens.Schimpf reached base for the third time when he drew a leadoff walk from reliever Zack Godley (4-4) in the bottom of the inning. Rosales homered to left field with one out, his 11th, to give the Padres a 4-2 lead.Thats a big momentum shift and you want to come back right away, Rosales said. You dont want to dwell on it. You want to come right back and answer back, and thats what we did.Schimpf was hit by a pitch from Bradley leading off the second and scored on Alex Dickersons double. Schimpf walked leading off the fourth and scored on Rosales sacrifice fly.Rosales also hit a sac fly in the eighth to bring in Wil Myers, who doubled and stole third. It was Myers 88th hit at home, a single-season record for Petco Park.Keith Hessler (1-0) got the last out of the sixth for the win. Brandon Maurer pitched the ninth for his second straight save and 12th in 14 chances.Each team had just four hits.Padres manager Andy Green said Rosales has been outstanding. Hes gotten limited opportunity this year and hes taken full advantage of all his opportunities. Hes fun to watch play baseball.Clemens took a 2-0 lead into the sixth before being undone by two unearned runs. With two outs, shortstop Luis Sardinas booted a routine grounder by Chris Owings. Goldschmidt then homered to left-center to tie it.Clemens allows two runs, none earned, and three hits in 5 2/3 innings. He struck out four and walked one.UP NEXTDiamondbacks: RHP Zack Greinke (12-7, 4.42 ERA) is scheduled to start the finale of the three-game series. Hes 1-0 with a 3.54 ERA in three starts against San Diego this year and 7-1 with a 1.96 ERA in 15 career starts against the Padres.Padres: RHP Luis Perdomo (8-9, 5.68), a 23-year-old rookie, is coming off his club-leading eighth victory, 3-1 at San Francisco on Sept. 14.Bud Norris Jersey . Louis. To which I would say two things: 1. Where there is smoke, there is or perhaps has been a little fire. Or, in other words, the two teams would appear to have at least spoken. And spoken is defined as one calling the other to inquire, no more, no less. Randal Grichuk Jersey . Each of Houstons starters scored in double figures as the Rockets improved to 2-0 against the Spurs this season, with both victories coming on the road. They also moved within 3 1/2 games of San Antonio (22-7) for the lead the Southwest Division. http://www.bluejaysonline.com/blue-jays-roberto-alomar-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. He has 19 goals and 24 assists for 43 points in 45 games with the Colts this season. Devon Travis Blue Jays Jersey .

"The Sabres called for permission and I appreciate that, Im flattered, Dudley told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun of ESPN.PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas -- The offense came a little easier this time around for LSU.Brandon Sampson scored career-high 24 points and the Tigers shot 61 percent after halftime to beat Old Dominion 66-60 on Thursday night in the Battle 4 Atlantis consolation bracket.Duop Reath added 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Tigers (4-1), who hung on down the stretch against the Monarchs (2-2). It was a huge improvement from a day before, when the Tigers lost by 35 points to Wichita State in the first game of the eight-team tournament at the Atlantis resort.In that game, LSU shot just 28 percent, though coach Johnny Jones said he was more troubled by a defensive effort that saw Wichita State shoot 45 percent.I thought tonight we were better defensively and when we did have lapses offensively, it gave us a chance to at least hold our opponent down, Jones said. And then we got back in a comfort zone and got in a rhythm really in the second half making plays and making the right passes, right reads.And I thought guys did a good job of being patient and letting the offense work.Sampson, a 6-foot-5 sophomore from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, offered a good example of the difference in the two games. He managed just two points on 1-for-7 shooting against Wichita State, but made 7 of 10 shots and all nine of his free throws in 30 minutes against Old Dominion.It was definitely a big learning experience, Sampson said, adding: I could tell it was hard for all our teammates to sleep on a game like that.Ahmad Caver scored 11 points to lead Old Dominion, which was coming off an overtime loss to No. 10 Louisville in its tournament opener.The Monarchs shot just 37 percent and struggled at the foul line (8 of 15) for the second straight game.Wee were atrocious at the offensive end, ODU coach Jeff Jones said.dddddddddddd We didnt execute. And it started on our very first possession to the very last possession, so I guess at least we were consistent.BIG PICTUREODU: Two games, two bad shooting performances. The Monarchs had to work hard for their looks against the Tigers and struggled to make them when they did get a clean shot. It was a performance that prompted Jones to say his Monarchs got exactly what we deserved.There is no excuse for the way we played, Jones said. And I dont mean to take anything away from LSU. They outplayed us. But we had a choice, and we werent ready.LSU: At least Jones knows his team can put an ugly loss behind it. The Tigers responded by controlling the boards (40-35) and blocking five shots to go with the solid second-half shooting.TIP-INSODU: Trey Porter scored 10 points. ...
