HAMILTON - The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are on a roll and thats breeding new confidence in a team that got off to a very slow start. Jadon Sancho Jersey . I think our guys were always confident, Ticats head coach Kent Austin said Friday. We are young, though. When youve got that level of youth, you need to win for the confidence to be more consistent and to be more authentic. Hamilton (5-7) will take a three-game winning streak into Saturdays game against the visiting B.C. Lions. The Ticats have won four of five overall to move into a tie for first place in the weak CFL East Division. Catch all the action starting at 7pm et/4pm pt on TSN1 and TSN4. The game can also be heard on TSN1410 at 2pm pt. The Ticats are also undefeated at Tim Hortons Field (3-0) since they started playing there on Labour Day. The return of starting quarterback Zach Collaros has also given the team a boost. He missed five games earlier this season due to concussion-like symptoms and Hamilton started the season at 1-6. The Ticats also had to play their first three home games at McMaster University while waiting for their new stadium to open. Right now, in all honesty, this is the hottest team in the league, said B.C. head coach Mike Benevides. Youve got to play your best football and its about every single person playing to the best of their ability because theyre tough to deal with. B.C. (7-6) has lost two straight and sits fourth in the CFL West, but the Lions currently hold a crossover playoff spot since they have a better record than the third-place Toronto Argonauts in the East. On the ground, the Lions will be without Andrew Harris who has a dislocated ankle. Lewis led the league coming into this week with 1,181 yards from scrimmage. They are also without starting quarterback Travis Lulay, who injured his right throwing shoulder on Sept. 5 against Ottawa in his first game back this season after undergoing off-season shoulder surgery. However, the Lions can turn to veteran pivot Kevin Glenn, a former Hamilton starter who has completed 216 of 343 pass attempts for 2,830 yards, 13 touchdowns and 14 interceptions this season. He will have Emmanuel Arceneaux as a target, the leagues second-leading receiver with seven touchdowns and 773 yards on 47 receptions. Im on a very good team, said Glenn. Yes weve struggled a little bit lately, but were still in the thick of things. We still have plenty enough football left to get to where we want to be ... this is about us as players putting our foot down and going out and doing what we need to do. B.C. won its first meeting with Hamilton back in August with a 36-29 victory in Vancouver. Glenn was at the helm for the Lions and backup pivot Dan LeFevour was under centre for Hamilton. He played a great game, were very aware of that, Austin said of Glenn. He made plays and found some open receivers. Especially, a couple times we dropped receivers, and he scrambled around and found them and it turned into big plays. So we just have to be more disciplined defensively and make sure we dont drop receivers when they throw the football. Benevides said the Lions are aware that the Tiger-Cats are a very different team than when they last met now that Collaros is back starting at quarterback. But this weeks matchup may very well end up to be a defensive battle. Hamilton currently sports the leagues best run defence while B.C. owns the best pass defence. B.C. linebacker Solomon Elimimian leads the CFL with 108 defensive tackles. Former CFL all-star defensive end Justin Hickman will play in his second game with the Ticats after returning from a stint in the NFL. He had one sack and two tackles last week against Winnipeg. Hickman and Glenn are friends from their days in Steeltown. Hickman has said he chose the No. 5 for his jersey as a tribute to Glenn, who wore that number in Hamilton. Hickman said the one thing he admires most about Glenn is the quarterbacks mental toughness, but come game time the defensive end that once led the league in quarterback sacks will have something else on his mind. For three years, I couldnt touch him in practice, Hickman said. Now, Ive got a chance to go get him. Marius Wolf Jersey . Geovany Soto had an RBI for the Cubs. Carlos Silva gave up one run on three hits over six innings to pick up the win. Josh Willingham drove in the lone run for the Nationals, who had just four hits. Dominik Reimann Jersey . But its also a smart game. Theres more to the Kings than banging bodies. They take a toll mentally on their opponents. http://www.dortmundfcfanshop.com/c-29-andre-schurrle-fc-borussia-dortmund-jersey.aspx . It was a day that saw England slump off a World Cup field once again battered and bruised. This time there was no red card to wonder about, no goalkeeping error or individual mistake. They were thoroughly beaten by something they have nothing of – genuine world class ability.DETROIT - Rick Porcello can finally close the book on a rough September.As for the rest of the Detroit Tigers a€” they still have work to do after the AL Central race tightened again.Porcello allowed six runs in under four innings, and Detroit lost 11-4 to the Minnesota Twins on Friday night. The Tigers could have clinched the division with a victory and a Kansas City loss, but neither of those things happened, and now Detroit leads the Royals by only one game with two to play.Weve had two really tough stretches this year, and weve bounced back from them, Porcello said. This is one game. Were OK.Porcello allowed four earned runs and six hits in 3 2-3 innings. He is 0-4 with a 6.20 ERA in September, but with the Tigers heading to the post-season in some fashion next week, manager Brad Ausmus hopes his right-hander can bounce back. Porcello (15-13) has surpassed 200 innings this year for the first time in his career.Obviously, Im aware of where his innings are, but I dont think thats the issue, Ausmus said. If it were fatigue, Id expect to see a massive degradation in his performance, and we arent seeing anything like that. Hes just leaving a couple pitches in bad spots and teams are hitting the heck out of them.The Tigers fell way behind early. Oswaldo Arcia hit a two-run homer in the first, and Minnesota led 6-0 in the fourth.A.J. Achter (1-0) earned his first career win with a solid relief effort. The former Michigan State Spartan worked two innings, holding the Tigers without a run until he allowed Miguel Cabreras solo homer in the seventh.The Tigers are a team I grew up rooting for a€” I think thats pretty well known, said the 26-year-old Achter, who was born in Toledo, Ohio. I came to games here, at least one a year, growing up, so for it to happen here, its just another thing in my career thats been pretty unbelievable.The Tigers did get a scoreless inning of relief from Anibal Sanchez, who pitched for the first time since Aug. 8 after being out with a pectoral strain.Minnesota opened the scoring on Brian Doziers RBI single in the first, and Arcias home run made it 3-0. Dozier addded a solo homer in the third, his 22nd of the year. Jeremy Toljan Jersey. The Twins added a couple of unearned runs in the fourth when third baseman Nick Castellanos throwing error allowed Chris Herrmann and Aaron Hicks to score.Minnesota starter Anthony Swarzak allowed three runs and seven hits in 4 1-3 innings, and with the score 6-3 in the fifth, Achter came on with one out and men on first and second. Victor Martinez came within a few feet of tying the game with a drive down the line in right, but it was caught in front of the wall, and Achter got J.D Martinez on a flyout to end the inning.The Twins responded with four runs in the sixth.Dozier and Danny Santana had three hits each for the Twins, and Dozier and Arcia drove in three runs apiece.STILL CONFIDENTThe Tigers are trying for a fourth straight division title, and the Royals have pushed them to the final weekend of the season. Kansas City clinched at least a wild card Friday.Were still up a game, so the pressure is all on the Royals, Detroit outfielder Rajai Davis said. This is still in our hands.KEEPSAKEAchters father wasnt in attendance Friday because he had a high school football game to coach, but he gave a game ball to his mother.That was pretty emotional. She just beat breast cancer this off-season, Achter said. For her to be a part of this and to be here, its all around a pretty special moment.TRAINERS ROOMTwins: OF Jordan Schafer has a hyperextended right elbow. He was available to pinch-run but didnt play.Tigers: Sanchez was activated from the disabled list before Tuesdays game in Detroit, but he didnt pitch until Friday. He threw 14 pitches against the Twins, allowing only one hit a€” an infield single by Santana.Well see how I feel tomorrow and decide where to go from there, Sanchez said. I hope to pitch at least one more time before the playoffs, but Im not too concerned about it.UP NEXTDetroit LHP Kyle Lobstein (1-1) takes the mound against Minnesota RHP Ricky Nolasco (5-12) on Saturday night. Lobstein made his major league debut against the Twins last month, allowing three runs in 5 2-3 innings of relief.
