TORONTO -- The Detroit Tigers assured themselves of a winning road trip Saturday when they defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 3-2They are 6-4 on the trip and on Sunday they will try to gain a split of the four-game series when they send out Anibal Sanchez (5-9, 6.52 ERA) against Blue Jays knuckleballer R.A. Dickey (6-9, 4.10 ERA).An eighth-inning home run by designated hitter Victor Martinez provided the winning margin Saturday and gave the Tigers a 46-42 record.Were not where we want to be at this point but theres a lot of season left, Martinez said. Im really happy with the way we have been playing lately. Every series is big, every game is big. It doesnt matter what point of the season youre at, youre trying to win every game.The Tigers won two of three from the Blue Jays in June at Comerica Park, so the teams enter Sundays game having won three games apiece against each other.Dickey beat the Tigers in the Blue Jays only win in Detroit this season. He was not at his sharpest but he held the Tigers to two runs despite allowing nine hits in 5 1/3 innings in the 7-2 win.In 20 games, including 13 starts, against the Tigers, Dickey is 8-3 with a 4.01 ERA.Sanchez will make his 22nd appearance and 14th start of the season Sunday. He is 3-2 with a 4.17 ERA in nine career games, including seven starts, against the Blue Jays.He has allowed no runs in two relief appearances covering 3 1/3 innings against Toronto this season. In two career starts at Rogers Centre, Sanchez is 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA.The loss on Saturday stopped the Blue Jays season-best winning streak at seven games, their longest since winning 11 straight Aug. 2-13, 2015. They have won 17 of their past 24 games overall and eight of their past 11 at home.One of the reasons for the Blue Jays success is that they have coped with the injury to right fielder Jose Bautista, an important part of the lineup who has turf toe and has just started to hit off a tee.During Bautistas absence, Ezequiel Carrera has done a good job leading off and playing the outfield, usually right field.Carrera started in left field Saturday and in the second inning threw out Martinez at the plate after catching the liner hit by Steven Moya. Martinez admitted that it was his own idea to tag up and try to score. After he saw the video, he confessed that he thought the ball was hit deeper than it was.That was a huge play, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. You know what, when Bautista went down, we didnt know what to expect. Now, heres Zs opportunity -- and he has done a tremendous job. Weve been on a nice little run, and he has been a key part of that.Carrera hit an RBI triple in the fifth inning Saturday. He has reached base safely in 23 of his past 25 games.Whether its getting on base, getting the big hits, bunting, whatever he does -- and defensively, he has been great, too, Gibbons said. Thats the key for guys to hang around a long time in this league, getting the opportunity. He hadnt really gotten that, now hes gotten it and hes running with it. Basketball Jerseys China .

CANCUN, Mexico -- Isaac Haas is feeling it.If the Purdue center has the ball in his hands, its either going right through the hoop or hes kicking it out to one of his sharpshooting teammates waiting on the perimeter to do the same.Haas scored 26 points and Dakota Mathias added 25, both career highs, as No. 17 Purdue beat Utah State 85-64 in the Cancun Challenge on Tuesday night.Haas and Mathias took over in the second half, when they combined for 32 points on 12-of-13 shooting to help the Boilermakers (3-1) pull away after leading 39-27 at halftime. Mathias shot 6 of 7 on 3-pointers and Purdue made 11 from beyond the arc.We were able to take those shots and whenever they were letting us have it in the post, we were scoring in the post and they just didnt really have an answer for it, Haas said.Alexis Dargenton led Utah State (3-1) with 14 points and nine rebounds. Julion Pearre added 10 points.Caleb Swanigan had 15 points and made the Boilermakers second 3 for a 19-7 lead, their biggest of the first half, with 11:43 to play. The Aggies chipped away and cut Purdues lead to 28-27 on a layup from Jalen Moore with 4:16 to go, but the Boilermakers closed the half with 11 consecutive points and leaned on Mathias and Haas to pull away in the second.DEFENSE FIRSTMathias checked out of the game with a few minutes left to big high-fives from his teammates. While they cheered his scoring effort from outside, Mathias was more excited about his defense. He had six rebounds and two of the teams seven steals.We just keep making strides and getting better in that area, Purdue coach Matt Painter said. Weve just got to be able to get strings of stops and put them together.GIANT BATTLENorbert Janicek did all he could to try and use his 6-foot-11 frrame to slow the 7-foot-2 Haas.dddddddddddd. Janicek played Haas physically and fouled out with just more than 9 minutes left as a result. Quinn Taylor replaced Janicek, and Haas scored 13 more points in that matchup.He just overwhelms people at times, Mathias said. I think every game hes fouled out somebody or multiple people, so they go through two or three different guys down low. He finishes through contact, so he was great today.AT THE LINEHaas and Swanigan combined to make 16 of 20 free throws. The Aggies combined to attempt 14.We didnt take away their inside play and we let their guards, especially Mathias, make way too many shots, Utah State coach Tim Duryea said. Defensively, foul trouble hurt us and offensively we forced some things and tried too hard at times and that made our shot selection suffer and our turnovers go up.THE BIG PICTUREPurdue: The Boilermakers arrived in Mexico with plenty of issues after an emotional loss to defending national champion Villanova followed by a shaky performance in a 64-56 win over Georgia State after trailing by 12. The Panthers beat the Boilermakers on the glass and stymied their 3-point shooters before Purdue ripped off a 20-point run. The Boilermakers answered some questions in this one, though, improving their 3-point shooting and first-half defense.Utah State: The loss snapped the Aggies most consistent run since last season when they won four straight in late December.UP NEXTPurdue plays Auburn (4-0) for the tournaments Riviera Championship on Wednesday.Utah State plays Texas Tech (3-1) for third place in the tournaments Riviera Division on Wednesday. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
