| MILWAUKEE - Despite his anger over the Brewers fade from contention, Milwaukee owner Mark Attanasio says general manager Doug Melvin will return for the 2015 season.Milwaukee led the NL Central for 150 days but lost 24 of 34 games and was eliminated from playoff contention on Thursday.Frankly, Im disappointed in the team, disappointed in the guys, Attanasio said Saturday. Theyre better than this, and they didnt show it.Attanasio and Melvin held a 20-minute news conference near the Brewers dugout at Miller Park to discuss the season. Melvin said the fates of manager Ron Roenicke and his coaching staff have not been decided.Theres a lot of euphemisms weve heard, Attanasio said. Weve heard heart. Weve heard leadership. And weve heard urgency. We just didnt get the job done. There was a job that needed to get done, and it didnt get done.Melvin said the teams offence tail-off will be analyzed a€” the Brewers hit .229 in their first 24 September games.My biggest concern about the entire season is these losing streaks, Melvin said. Why do we go 2-11 before the All-Star break? And we went 6-22 last May. ... In the end, were going to be 81, 82 or 83 wins, which is probably going to be about six-to-seven wins away from making the playoffs.Attanasio has owned the Brewers since 2004 but said this will be the first year he doesnt address the team at the end of the season.I dont because Im too unhappy, he said. Whats the point of another meeting dwelling on things?Instead, he said he was spending time meeting with individual players this weekend.I havent handled it well, honestly, Attanasio said. I havent slept. Going into September, Doug and I were still working everything we could to get the team into the playoffs.Milwaukee fell out of first place on Sept. 1.Frankly, into mid-September I believed in this team and thought they were going to turn it around, Attanasio said. They just didnt.Melvin said it is too early to say whether the Brewers will make major roster changes. He doesnt want players to feel too comfortable.First off, I want to find out who cares about winning and losing in the clubhouse, Melvin said. If theres guys in there who dont care about winning, they probably wont be here.Ryan Braun, Jonathan Lucroy, Scooter Gennett, Carlos Gomez, Kyle Lohse, Wily Peralta, Matt Garza and Jonathan Broxton are among the players under contract for 2015.Closer Francisco Rodriguez can become a free agent; third baseman Aramis Ramirez and the team have a mutual option; Milwaukee has a team option on right-hander Yovani Gallardo.Roenickes contract is through 2015 with a team option for 2016. The coaches contracts expire on Oct. 31.Its not that easy to really understand what happened, Attanasio said. If it were wed have a quick response today. Its not like were delaying the decision because its uncomfortable. Were delaying the decision because we need to do the work to really sort through what happened. Hydro Flask Cena . Detroits powerful offence made that unnecessary. Scherzer allowed two hits and struck out seven, and the Tigers backed their star right-hander with three early homers in an 8-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday night. Hydro Flask Termoska . PETERSBURG, Fla. http://www.hydroflasklahev.cz/ . - Jayden Hart scored once and set up two more as the Prince Albert Raiders downed the host Red Deer Rebels 5-3 on Tuesday to clinch the final Western Hockey League playoff berth. Hydro Flask Heureka .C. -- Cam Newton wasnt flawless on Sunday. Hydro Flask Lahev . In Englands first game since its worst-ever World Cup showing, Roy Hodgsons side rarely looked like scoring against unambitious opposition and the breakthrough in the friendly only came when Raheem Sterling was tripped in the penalty area.BOSTON -- With one ace already on the disabled list, the Boston Red Sox werent taking any chances when their other star pitcher landed awkwardly after a pitch late in the game. By that point, though, Jon Lester had more than done his job. Lester pitched into the eighth inning before jamming his right hip and leaving the game, and Dustin Pedroia homered during a seven-run second to help the Red Sox beat the Toronto Blue Jays 7-4 in the opener of a four-game series Thursday night. "I slipped a little bit. I guess the doctors were kind of calling it a little jammed hip, a type of zinging sensation down my leg." Lester said. "It just didnt feel normal and like I said, at that point in the game, especially with that offence -- they can score some runs in a hurry -- so theres no point in trying to be a hero. Weve got a long way to go the rest of the season." Toronto, which reeled off 11 straight wins this month, had won 12 of its past 14 games and 15 of 19 to close within 6 1/2 games of the AL East-leading Red Sox. Then the Blue Jays ran into Lester. The left-hander retired 10 straight to begin the game and didnt allow a hit until the fifth. But he exited the game with a 7-2 lead after giving up consecutive singles to start the eighth and running the count to 3-0 on Emilio Bonifacio. Farrell came darting out of the dugout as the infielders crowded around Lester. Moments later, Lester walked off the field and Junichi Tazawa came on in relief. "The final pitch that he threw, his landing foot kind of gave way and he jammed his hip," Farrell said. "Given where we were in the ballgame and the number of pitches he had thrown, he clearly had done his job and we werent going to take any chances." It was quite a scare for Red Sox Nation. Clay Buchholz, who is 9-0 with a 1.71 ERA, hasnt pitched since June 8 because of neck stiffness and a sore shoulder. Lester, however, isnt concerned about his leg. He has experienced this before and doesnt think he will miss any starts. "Im not too worried about it. The doctors didnt seem worried about it," he said. "I actually feel fine now. Walking off the field, it just kind of stays with you for a little while, and then after the docs looked at me, I feel normal. Hopefully that will carry over to tomorrow and we wont have to worry about it." The Blue Jays capitalized when Lester left the game, cutting the deficit to 7-4 on a sacrifice fly by Jose Reyes and a groundout by Jose Bautista. Koji Uehara preserved the lead with a perfect ninth for his third save. Lester (8-4) was charged with four runs on five hits with five strikeouts and three walks in winning for just the second time in his last eight starts. "I feel that responsibility to go out there and save the bullpen and thats what we tried to do tonight," Lester said. "Obviously would have liked to give (Taazawa) a little better situation than what he came into, but he kept us with the lead and thats the main thing.ddddddddddddquot; After starting the season 6-0 with a 2.72 ERA through his first nine starts, Lester struggled over his past seven, going 1-4 with a 7.30 ERA. He returned to form just in time to face baseballs best team in June -- and Bostons bats provided him all the support he needed. The Red Sox jumped all over Chien-Ming Wang, tagging the right-hander for seven runs while batting around in the second. Wang (1-1) lasted just 1 2-3 innings, allowing all seven runs on six hits with two walks and no strikeouts. "They dropped seven on us," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. "Against a good pitcher, you are never going to catch that. Too much to overcome." Lester needed only 30 pitches to get through three innings and didnt allow a baserunner until Bautista walked with one out in the fourth. Melky Cabrera singled for Torontos first hit with one out in the fifth and moved to second on a base hit by Rajai Davis. Maicer Izturis drove them both home with a double to left-centre. Yet it wasnt enough to make up for Bostons blistering start. Wang allowed the first seven batters to reach base during the drawn-out second. David Ortiz and Mike Carp walked, Daniel Nava delivered an RBI single off the Green Monster in left field and Jarrod Saltalamacchia followed with an RBI single up the middle to make it 2-0. Stephen Drews double to right scored Nava, and consecutive base hits by Jose Iglesias and Jacoby Ellsbury stretched the lead to 5-0 before Wang even managed an out. It got even worse. After inducing a double play, Wang served up Pedroias fifth homer of the season, a two-run shot that landed in the first row of Green Monster seats and ended Wangs evening after just 45 pitches. "We swung the bats well," Pedroia said. "A lot of guys strung together some quality at-bats. It was a huge inning for us." NOTES: The Red Sox played their 81st game, marking the 16th consecutive season Boston has owned a winning record halfway through the season. ... Red Sox RHP Clay Buchholz, on the DL with a neck strain, has been shut down for two to three days with lingering soreness in his right shoulder, according to Farrell. Buchholz (9-0, 1.71 ERA) underwent an MRI on Wednesday that revealed inflammation in the bursa sac area, but no structural damage. Farrell said he hopes Buchholz will resume throwing this weekend. ... Ellsbury has hit safely in eight straight games and 22 of the past 25. ... Wang fell to 6-7 in 16 career appearances against the Red Sox. ... Toronto RHP Josh Johnson (1-2, 4.60 ERA) will face Allen Webster (0-2, 11.25) in the second game of the series Friday. ... Carp returned to the lineup after missing three games and eight of the past nine with right hamstring tightness.
