Injured javelin thrower Kim Mickle is adamant her dodgy shoulder will be able to hold up to the rigours of Aussie Rules footy after signing on to play with Fremantle in the AFLs new womens league.Mickle underwent surgery last month after dislocating her reconstructed right shoulder while competing at the Rio Olympics.But in a shock move, Mickle has joined Fremantles new womens team on a rookie deal.The 31-year-old is still planning to defend her Commonwealth Games gold in 2018 on the Gold Coast.In the meantime, she wants to make a name for herself in Aussie Rules.Many experts are wondering how Mickle can play football after undergoing two rounds of shoulder surgery within the space of a year.But Mickle said her recent surgery was different to the first one, and would actually allow her shoulder to stand up to the rough and tumble of football.Its the same as what Nat Fyfe had done, and he was playing after 12 weeks of his surgery, Mickle said on Wednesday.The reason why we did the first surgery with anchors was to keep flexibility in the shoulder for a javelin throw.But as everyone saw in Rio, it didnt hold my shoulder in place when it came to the crunch time.So weve now opted for the (different) repair, which will make a stiffer shoulder, but a stronger shoulder.In terms of footy, thats brilliant. In terms of contact, its no dramas.Mickle says even if she loses 10 per cent of range in her shoulder by choosing the different type of surgery, it wont have much of an affect on her javelin throw.The two-time Olympian has little experience playing footy, having been forced by her parents to give up mixed football as a junior for fear she would get injured.It was just a bit rough for the boys with me being in their team, Mickle joked.But despite forging a successful athletics career, football has remained a big passion for Mickle.I warm up with a footy in hand all the time, Mickle said.Im always kicking around with the boys.Ive got a good boot on me. Ive got some good hands on me.In terms of getting off the ground and up, thats the bit where Ill have to do some work.Fremantle also signed WNBL title winner Gabby OSullivan as a rookie, while Ebony Antonio and Kirby Bentley joined as priority selections.The inaugural womens league season will run from February to March next year.Mickle is confident shell be ready to play by round one.Fremantle werent the only ones to get into the Olympic spirit, with basketballer Erin Phillips signing with Adelaides womens team.Phillips is a dual Olympian and is playing for the Dallas Wings in the WNBA in the United States.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Ian Kennedy served up four home runs while striking out eight batters, all in less than five innings, which led the Royals pitcher to sum up his performance quite succinctly.I dont know if Ive ever pitched that bad, he said, and got that many strikeouts.The strikeout total was just about the only highlight in Kansas Citys 11-4 loss to AL Central-leading Cleveland on Wednesday. Tyler Naquin hit two of the Indians five home runs while driving in a career-best six runs, and Carlos Carrasco tossed six shutout innings in a dominant performance.It was kind of a weird game, Kennedy said. When I was falling behind guys, they made me pay for it. But every time I got ahead, I got outs. It was kind of weird.Carrasco (7-3) only allowed one hit, a one-out double by Cheslor Cuthbert in the fourth he followed with back-to-back strikeouts. He walked two in the sixth for his only other baserunners.Mike Napoli, Jason Kipnis and Carlos Santana had the Indians other home runs.Kansas City scored all its runs off reliever Austin Adams in the eighth.Its not the way we planned the series to go, said the Royals Eric Hosmer. Weve got to find some way to get hot and turn things around. Were just not getting it done right now.The division-leading Indians, who are 4-5 against the hapless Minnesota Twins this season, improved to 26-8 against the rest of the AL Central. They are 8-5 against the Royals.The Royals are really hard to play here, Indians manager Terry Francona said. We did a really good job here (two win two of three).For the second day in a row, a first-inning homer -- this time by Kipnis, his 16th -- gave them instant offense. Naquin added a solo shot in the third before adding a two-run double in the fourth.Cleveland put away the game with a seven-run fifth inning.With a heat index of 105 degrees at first pitch, Carrasco coolly sliced up a Kansas City offense that scored seven runs in a single inning in the opener. The right-hander retired 17 of the first 18 batters he faced around his lone single, and he struck oout six while throwing just 84 pitches.dddddddddddde won for the fifth time in six outings and improved to 6-1 in eight starts in Kansas City.Kennedy wound up allowing seven runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings for the Royals. It was a rare poor start for him at Kauffman Stadium; he entered the game with an AL-best 2.11 ERA at home.Then again, it was also his ninth straight game serving up at least one homer, and hes now allowed 26 of them this season, tied with teammate Chris Young for most in the majors.I guess any time you give up a home run, you try to justify it a little bit, Kennedy said. The ball was flying a little bit, but theyre homers. The curveball to Naquin -- thats a second time Ive given up a home run to a left-hander to left field. You dont see that very often.PRESIDENTIAL VISITThe Royals will meet President Barack Obama at the White House on Thursday during a ceremony to honor their World Series title. It will be the fifth president that manager Ned Yost has met: Jimmy Carter and George Bush used to come to Braves games when Yost coached in Atlanta, George W. Bush threw out the first pitch on opening day once, and Bill Clinton greeted the champion Braves at the White House in 1996. So this will be my fifth president, Yost said, which is kind of cool.TRAINERS ROOMRoyals: LF Alex Gordon got the day off as he continues to battle out of a season-long slump. Hes hitting just .200 through 62 games after signing a $72 million, four-year deal in the offseason. He missed several weeks with a fractured wrist in a collision with 3B Mike Moustakas.Indians: OF Michael Brantley was expected to have an MRI exam on his ailing right shoulder Wednesday, though the results were not yet available. Brantley experienced a setback while on a rehab assignment.UP NEXTThe Royals open a three-game set Friday night against Texas.
