WACO, Texas -- This is not how Baylor seniors wanted to be preparing for their
final home game on the banks of the Brazos River.
Joey Bosa Jersey .There is the three-game
losing streak that has the Bears unranked for the first time in three years.
Starting quarterback Seth Russell will soon have surgery after a gruesome left
ankle injury. And there is no longer the chance of a third Big 12 title in four
years.Im going to go out to practice tomorrow like my hair is on fire, senior
cornerback Ryan Reid said Monday. We have to get this team going. We have to get
this win. We have to.As freshman receiver and now part-time running back Blake
Lynch put it: Mindset? Get back on the right track. Win.The Bears (6-3, 3-3 Big
12), who have gone a month since their last victory that got them to 6-0 and
bowl eligible, play their home finale Saturday against Kansas State (5-4,
3-3).Before Russell got hurt in the third quarter of a 45-24 loss at Big
12-leading Oklahoma on Saturday, the Bears had consecutive losses that followed
off-field distractions before the game.Acting head coach Jim Grobe said its been
difficult all season trying to keep it together. ... We did a pretty good job of
it up until the Friday before Texas, and thats when the Wall Street Journal
(article) came out, and that stirred up the coaches. And of course if the
coaches get stirred up, then the players get stirred up.Baylors 62-22 loss to
TCU, the Bears worst home loss since 2005, came a day after assistant coaches
and several staff members issued a statement on Twitter expressing their support
for former coach Art Briles, who was fired in May. They were disputing claims by
school regents that Briles knew of an alleged gang rape. There were also
T-shirts sold and was even a banner flying with (hash)CAB, which stands for
Coach Art Briles.That was a week after a 35-34 loss at Texas, after the Wall
Street Journal article when a group of Baylor regents first provided some
details about some of the allegations.Now the Bears are trying to regroup for
the closing stretch. After Kansas State, they play Texas Tech in the Dallas
Cowboys NFL stadium and close the season at No. 10 West Virginia.I think our
football team right now is just kind of focused on playing football. I think
thats the mindset we ought to be in, Grobe said. At the start of the season,
everyone wants to be Big 12 champs. Thats your goal, thats what you talk about
all the time. And now were in a position where we need to just talk about
playing good football. I thought we played hard last week, but we didnt play
real good.Senior running back Shock Linwood, the schools career rushing leader,
will be back to face K-State after being suspended for the Oklahoma game for
what Grobe had described as attitude issues.Grobe said Monday there are times to
give kids a reminder that their behavior is more important than their ability on
the football field.Once weve done that, well see where we can go from here, but
Im expecting were going to get a guy that comes back and does all the things we
want him to do, Grobe said of Linwood, who holds Baylor career marks with 4,056
yards rushing and 36 touchdowns on the ground.True freshman Zach Smith will take
over as the starting quarterback. After replacing Russell against Oklahoma, the
sixth game hes played in this season, Smith was 6-of-15 passing for 144 yards
and a touchdown.It was really heartbreaking what happened to Seth, Smith said.
But Ive just got to honor him and go in there and do what I know I can.
Lance Alworth Jersey . Perez, 35, posted a
1-2 record with a 3.69 earned-run average in 19 relief appearances last season.
His season ended Aug. 9 due to a torn ligament in his left elbow. Perez joins
infielder Andy LaRoche and catcher Mike Nickeas with minor-league agreements for
2014 that include invitations to attend spring training.

. The team said Saturday that Lopez was hurt during its 121-120 overtime loss at
Philadelphia on Friday. The Nets said they would issue another update next week
after consultation with their doctors. ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The latest
memorable night for David Ortiz ended badly for the Boston Red Sox.Ortiz became
the oldest player ever to hit 30 homers in a season, but the Tampa Bay Rays came
back from a three-run deficit to beat Boston 4-3 in 11 innings on Wednesday
night and prevent the Red Sox from taking sole possession of first place in the
American League East.Its hard to lose a game like that at this time, Ortiz said.
You expect to win that kind of game, especially the stage that we are in now.
Luke Maile doubled with two out in the 11th and scored from second base after
Red Sox pitcher Heath Hembree (4-1) dropped a throw to first on Kevin Kiermaiers
grounder. Hembrees throw to the plate beat Maile, but catcher Sandy Leon dropped
the ball as Maile slid across with the winning run.Thats kind of a routine
3-to-1 play, Boston manager John Farrell said. Unfortunately, it comes at a time
where youve got two outs and the guy is on the move, and it ends up being the
difference in this one.Brad Boxberger (2-0) got the win after one inning of
relief.Its fun anytime you can walk off in front of your fans and have a
celebration out there on the field. We dont get to do that very much, Kiermaier
said. Its a win. Well take it.Boston has won 10 of its past 13 games and remains
tied in first with Toronto after the?Blue Jays lost 8-2 to the Los Angeles
Angels.Bidding to become the majors first 18-game winner, Bostons?Rick Porcello
allowed Evan Longorias tying homer in the eighth before leaving with 7? innings
pitched. It was Longorias 30th homer.Red Sox rookie Andrew Benintendi left the
game in the seventh with a left knee sprain after being tagged out by shortstop
Matt Duffy on a double play.Its stiff. I can put a little bit of weight [on it],
not trying to push it or overdo it, Benintendi said. Come back tomorrow and see
how it feels. It was bad baserunning. It shouldnt happen.The 40-year-old Ortiz
hit the first pitch he saw from starter Matt Andriese in the first inning for a
two-run homer. Ortiz is the only player with 30 homers and 100 RBIs in each of
the past four seasons, and he is the first Red Sox player to drive in 100 runs
10 times.We need that, we need offense, Ortiz said. Weve had a good offense this
year, and thats whats keeping us alive, so hopefully it continnues.
Joe Barksdale Jersey. .Ortiz has 533 home
runs, one shy of Jimmie Foxx for 18th on the career list. Ortiz plans to retire
at the end of the season.Porcello pitched seven or more innings for a
career-high sixth straight start. His 123 pitches were a career high. The
right-hander gave up three runs and nine hits while striking out eight, failing
to win for only the second time in 11 starts since June 23.Mookie Betts drove in
Bostons third run with a third-inning single, one of two hits in his 54th
multihit game of the season.RED SOXS ROTATING ROTATIONFarrell said knuckleballer
Steven Wright (strained right shoulder) will be reinstated from the 15-day
disabled list to start on Friday night against Kansas City. LHP Eduardo
Rodriguez (left hamstring) will have a bullpen session on Thursday, which will
help determine where he will be inserted into the rotation. Also to be
determined is the role of RHP Clay Buchholz, who was moved out of the bullpen on
Aug. 13 and made three solid starts. Once we get through [Thursday], well have
more clarity, Farrell said.SIX-MAN ROTATION LIKELY FOR RAYSWith Alex Cobb and/or
Chase Whitley coming back from injuries and rookie Blake Snell facing limits on
his innings, the Rays are considering a six-man rotation down the stretch, and
even that would mean removing a current starter from the mix.I think thats
probably a good option, Rays manager Kevin Cash said. Were not going to draw
straws and say one guys out of the rotation, but were going to have to find a
way to get everybody their innings.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: 3B Pablo Sandoval,
expected to be ready for spring training next year after having left shoulder
surgery in May, has resumed working out at third base. ... RHP Carson Smith
(Tommy John surgery) will start throwing in 3? weeks.Rays: RHP Cobb (Tommy John
surgery) will make his final rehab start on Saturday for Triple-A Durham and
hopes to have his first major league appearance in almost two years during a
Sept. 2-4 series against Toronto.UP NEXTLHP Drew Pomeranz will make his eighth
start for the Red Sox on Thursday against Rays RHP Jake Odorizzi, who is 5-0
with a 1.64 ERA in six starts since the All-Star break.
