VANCOUVER -- The B.C. Lions signed defensive back Ryan Phillips to a contract extension that will keep him with the CFL club through the 2016 season. The nine-year veteran was a CFL all-star last year after recording 36 tackles and two interceptions over 18 regular-season games. "Ryan is one of the veteran players that were counting on to show our defence and our team the kind of commitment, teamwork and selflessness its going to take to be a champion," Lions GM Wally Buono said in a statement. "As a four-time CFL all-star, including last season, Ryan continues to play at a very high level and I believe his greatest season is yet to come." The Seattle native hasnt missed a regular-season game since entering the league in 2005. His mark of 162 consecutive games played is the longest active streak in the CFL. "I cannot say enough about Ryans leadership and accomplishments during his time as a Lion," said head coach Mike Benevides. "Hes been with us for the better part of a decade and we will be leaning on him not only as a key component of our defence, but also as part of our core leadership group." Phillips has appeared in 13 playoff games and won Grey Cups with the Lions in 2006 and 2011. "Signing this extension is very satisfying for me for a number of reasons," Phillips said. "Having an opportunity to play in front of my friends and family is very important to me and Im grateful to the Lions for making that happen for years to come. "Im also honoured to play alongside some of the best defensive players in the CFL such as Dante Marsh, Cord Parks, Adam Bighill and Solomon Elimimian. We have a great team here and more specifically we have great defensive players that are not concerned with personal recognition but instead, simply winning championships." Phillips is tied with former Lions great Norm Fieldgate with 388 career tackles and is second behind Larry Crawford with 666 interception return yards. Montez Sweat Jersey .

Saturday night, they were even better when it didnt. Despite a 62-minute rain delay between the third and fourth innings, the Goldeyes won their eighth straight game, a 12-6 victory, over the Sioux Falls Canaries on a wet, chilly evening at Shaw Park. With the win, the Goldeyes improved to 59-33 on the season. They also guaranteed themselves a series win over Sioux Falls – their 16th series victory of the season. With a win over the Canaries on Sunday, the Goldeyes will record their ninth sweep of the season. "This is a good team that plays really good baseball," said Goldeyes manager Rick Forney. "And theyre playing pretty good baseball right now. Yeah, we were able to clinch a playoff berth (on Friday night) but were not going to change anything down the stretch. Were just going to keep playing good baseball." Before the rain delay, the Goldeyes built a 6-0 lead. In the first inning, Brock Bond walked, went to second on a single by Tyler Kuhn and both Bond and Kuhn scored on a double by Casey Haerther. In the second, Ryan Pineda led off with a single, Jordan Guida was safe on an error sending Pineda to second. Jake Blackwood drove in both runners with a double and then Blackwood scored on a single by Tyler Kuhn. Then, in the third, Pineda walked, went to second on a single by Bond and scored on a single Blackwood. However, after the raain, things got dicey.dddddddddddd In the top of the fifth, the Canaries put up a four spot, but the Goldeyes still led 6-4 and starter Matt Jackson had worked enough innings to be the pitcher-of-record. And thats when the Goldeyes showed they had Jacksons back. The Fish made it 8-4 in the seventh when Josh Mazzola led off with a double and Ryan Pineda doubled to drive him home. Pineda eventually scored on a wild pitch and the Goldeyes had a four-run lead. Winnipeg blew it open with four in the eighth when Bond singled, Blackwood walked, both runners moved up on a balk and Bond scored on a single by Tyler Kuhn. Blackwood scored on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Haerther and then Kuhn scored in front of Reggie Abercrombie after Abercrombie hit a middle-in, thigh-high fastball over the left field wall for his 17th home run of the season. Sioux Falls added a run in the eighth and Chris Duffy hit a solo homer in the ninth, but it was too little and way too late. Jackson (11-6, 4.21 ERA) got the victory, while Sioux Falls starter Kyle Vazquez (5-8, 5.51 ERA) took the loss. The Goldeyes finished with 12 runs on 15 hits, while Sioux Falls had six runs on 13 scattered hits. The Goldeyes and Canaries will play Game 4 of this four-game series on Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Joe Bircher (3-7, 4.26 ERA) will get the start for the visitors, while Ethan Hollingsworth (7-1, 3.63 ERA) will take to the bump for the home side.
