KWBG Sports at a Glance for August 12th

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. (AP) - Steve Stricker is the leader heading
into the second round of the PGA Championship at Atlanta Country
Club. Stricker opened with a 7-under-par 63 that ties the lowest
score ever in a major. Jerry Kelly is two shots back, Shaun Micheel
(mih-KEEL') is three off the lead and Tiger Woods is a whopping 14
strokes behind following a 7-over 77.
NEW YORK (AP) - The New York Yankees are within one game of
first-place Boston in the American League East after Robinson Cano
(kuh-NOH') belted a tiebreaking grand slam in the seventh inning of
the Bombers' 6-5 triumph over the Los Angeles Angels. Cano's blast
came one batter after Maicer Izturis (MY'-sur ihz-TOOR'-ihs)
committed a two-out error, and one inning after Curtis Granderson
tied the game with a two-run homer. The Angels are two games behind
West-leading Texas and eight games behind the Yankees for the wild
card.
PHOENIX (AP) - The Arizona Diamondbacks homered their way to a
one-game lead over San Francisco in the National League West last
night. Chris Young launched a three-run homer in the bottom of the
10th to give the DBacks an 8-5 comeback win over Houston. Paul
Goldschmidt forced extra innings with a two-out, two-run homer in
the ninth, one inning after Arizona scored twice in the eighth to
get within 5-3.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Two-time Pro Bowl defensive end Osi
Umenyiora (OH'-see yoo-mihn-YOOR'-uh) tells The Associated Press
that his contract talks remain deadlocked. Giants' general manager
Jerry Reese offered a little hope by saying he expected to have the
29-year-old veteran back in the fold for this season. Umenyiora has
not practiced since training camp opened in late July because he is
unhappy with his contract.
UNDATED (AP) - The Pittsburgh Steelers have agreed to terms with
wide receiver Jericho Cotchery, who was released by the Jets last
week. The Kansas City Chiefs have signed former Ravens tackle Jared
Gaither. And running back Ahman Green has retired as a Green Bay
Packer, ending his career as the team's all-time rushing leader.

KWBG Sports at a Glance for August 9th

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Roy Halladay of the Phillies has earned his
15th win of the season, most in the National League. Halladay
pitched the Phils to a 5-3 victory over the Dodgers in Los Angeles
last night. Halladay went six and a-third innings, allowing nine
hits but just one run in running his record to 15-4.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Philadelphia Phillies center fielder Shane
Victorino homered and had three hits and scored three runs in the
Phils' win in Los Angeles while appealing a three-game suspension
imposed for his part in a weekend brawl at San Francisco. Major
League Baseball also fined Victorino an undisclosed amount, but
he's allowed to play until his appeal is heard.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The Pittsburgh Pirates' 10-game losing
streak is history. The Pirates, who dropped from first to third in
the NL Central during their swoon, blanked NL West-leading San
Francisco 5-0 last night as Charlie Morton hurled eight strong
innings, allowing six hits.
MIAMI (AP) - Atlanta's Dan Uggla stretched his hitting streak to
29 games with an infield single last night in the Braves' 8-5 win
over Florida. That's the longest active hitting streak in the
majors and is two behind Rico Carty's franchise-record 31 in a row
in 1970.
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - Penn State's legendary 84-year-old
football coach Joe Paterno was hospitalized and undergoing tests on
his right arm and hip after a player ran into him during practice
on Sunday. A person familiar with the team says doctors were
evaluating Paterno's shoulder and pelvis, and there was no firm
diagnosis yet on the extent of the injuries.
