CLEVELAND -- Terry Francona heard the boos from the home crowd, and the Cleveland Indians manager didnt mind one bit. Adidas Superstar προσφορα . Francona pulled Corey Kluber two outs short of a complete game in Clevelands 4-1 win over Kansas City on Sunday. The crowd of 16,991 wanted to see Kluber, who allowed four hits and struck out 10 in 8 1-3 innings, finish the game, and the fans let Francona know they didnt agree with his decision. "I dont blame them," Francona said. "If I was managing with my heart, Id have left him in there, too." Kluber (8-6) took a three-hitter into the ninth before Eric Hosmer started the inning with a double. The right-hander, who gave up a solo homer to Mike Moustakas in the fifth, was removed after striking out Salvador Perez. Kluber also heard the boos and used the opportunity to take a good-natured jab at his manager. "Kip (second baseman Jason Kipnis) was giving him a hard time, too," he said. "It was pretty funny, I guess." Cody Allen recorded the final two outs for his ninth save, and Carlos Santana and Yan Gomes homered in a three-run second inning. Kluber, who walked one, retired the first seven hitters before Jarrod Dysons infield single with one out in the third. Lorenzo Cain also had an infield hit in the sixth. Kluber has been Clevelands ace all season. He has four double-figure strikeout games. "It sure is nice, man, to write his name in there," Francona said. "He has weapons, he has poise, and he competes." Francona said. Kluber is working to stay on an even keel throughout the season. "Im trying to be as consistent as I can from start to start," Kluber said. "I try to avoid the downs as much as possible and keep the good stuff rolling." Kluber rarely shows any emotion on the mound, but Francona thinks appearances can be misleading. "Hes very locked in," Francona said. "Maybe his demeanour belies the real fire thats in there. He gets after it." Even Moustakas, who walked in the seventh and is 7 for 18 against Kluber, was impressed. "Everything he was throwing was nasty," he said. A lack of run support has kept Kluber from having a better record. He allowed three runs over 20 2-3 innings in his last three starts, but lost twice. Kluber held the Dodgers to one run in 6 2-3 innings on Monday, but was the losing pitcher in a 1-0 defeat. Both of Clevelands home runs came off Danny Duffy (5-8). Santana led off the inning with a line drive that barely cleared the fence in right. Gomes followed with a two-run homer to centre. Michael Brantley, who went 2 for 4 to raise his average to .321, had an RBI single in the fifth. Santanas homer came on a 1-1 pitch and was his 13th of the season, tying him with Brantley for the team lead. Ryan Raburn followed with a single, and Gomes hit his 10th home run on a 1-0 pitch. Cleveland has won four of five and moved within two games of second-place Kansas City in the AL Central. The Royals, who trail first-place Detroit by 4 1-2 games, dropped their first road series since losing two of three against the Los Angeles Angels from May 23-25. Duffy allowed 10 hits and struck out six in six innings. The left-hander had a 1.69 ERA in six June starts and was 3-1 with a 1.05 ERA in his last four road starts. The Indians placed leadoff hitter and centre fielder Michael Bourn on the disabled list with a strained left hamstring. Bourn has been battling the injury all season and hurt it again running the bases on Saturday. Left fielder Alex Gordon and designated hitter Billy Butler, who are both in lengthy slumps, were out of Sundays lineup. Gordon is mired in a 3 for 40 skid, and Butler has just three hits in 26 at-bats. NOTES: The Royals signed LHP Scott Downs, who was released by the White Sox on Thursday. He pitched a scoreless seventh inning. RHP Casey Coleman was optioned to Triple-A Omaha. ... The Indians called up OF Tyler Holt from Triple-A Columbus to take Bourns roster spot. Holtz made his major league debut as a defensive replacement in the ninth and caught Danny Valencias fly ball to end the game. ... Royals OF Nori Aoki (strained left groin) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Northwest Arkansas this week. ... RHP Justin Masterson (4-5), who lasted three innings in his last start, will open Clevelands four-game series against the Yankees on Monday. ... The Royals continue their nine-game road trip Monday at Tampa Bay with RHP James Shields (8-4) facing his former team. Adidas NMD R2 Greece ."

Bring on Freddy Garcia. The well-travelled 36-year-old right-hander earned his second NL victory since 2007, and his first since he joined the Atlanta Braves last month, pitching six innings to help beat Miami 6-1 Thursday.The Calgary Flames have done a nice job of following losses with victories. Stringing wins together hasnt been quite as easy. After opening a five-game homestand on a positive note, theyve got a chance to change that Saturday night against an Ottawa Senators team thats dropped six of seven in Calgary. Thursdays 5-3 win over Arizona improved the Flames to 7-0-1 following a loss and gave them an opportunity to begin a winning streak for the third time this season. It also gave them 10 wins in 18 games after last seasons club did it in 27. Hearing that, thats something we can build off of and keep continuing to progress and hopefully get better and improve on it, defenseman Kris Russell told the teams official website. Victories lately have come with plenty of scoring as Calgary (10-6-2) has managed four goals or more in each of its last seven wins. Its scoring is up to 3.00 goals per game after finishing 23rd last season at 2.46. Paul Byron got in on the action with a pair against the Coyotes, while Mark Giordano scored to give him 13 points on an eight-game streak. David Jones had a goal and an assist and has scored in three straight, and Sean Monahan continued to make up for a slow start with his seventh goal and 10th point in 10 games to again help the team dodge consecutive losses. Its been a focus of ours, Giordano said. The good teams dont lose two, three, four games in a row. They cut the losing streaks off right away. I thought we had a tough game (Monday) in Carolina, but the bounce back was good. The guys were moving tonight. I thought we created a lot. That was also the case last season against Ottawa as the teams split the two-game series with the home team winning each by a three-goal margin. Senators center Kyle Turris had three goals and an assistt, while Byron scored in each. Adidas NMD R2 προσφορες. The Senators (8-4-4) are completing a three-game trip against their Western Conference Canadian foes. Thursdays 4-3 win over Edmonton required Mike Hoffmans overtime winner after blowing a 3-0 lead. At the end of the day, we found a way to win a game on the road, said coach Paul MacLean, whose team was in an 0-1-2 rut. It was a great effort by the team. You dont make up ground or get ahead in this league by getting one point. Hoffman also scored in regulation and has six goals in five games after managing one through his first eight. A season after scoring three goals in 25 games, hes tied with Clarke MacArthur for the team lead with seven. In goal, Craig Anderson has been busy for Ottawa and will face the Flames. He made 34 saves against the Oilers, has faced 36.0 shots per game and responded with a league-best .942 save percentage. This month, hes 3-0-2 with a 1.73 goals-against average. Hell be opposed by Karri Ramo, whose season hasnt been as impressive. Ramos only start this month resulted in four goals on 22 shots and an early departure as he saw his GAA jump to 2.85 to go along with a 2-2-1 record. Ramo is 0-3-1 with a 4.11 GAA in six games against Ottawa.
