ST. Stromile Swift Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Wil Myers has some great memories at Tropicana Field.Monday night didnt produce any more.Myers went 1 for 4 in his first game back at the ballpark since a blockbuster trade two years ago, and the San Diego Padres lost 8-2 to the Tampa Bay Rays.The AL Rookie of the Year in 2013 while with the Rays was dealt to the Padres as part of a three-team, 11-player deal in December 2014.When I was here with Tampa, I didnt necessarily know what it was like to be a big leaguer and playing every day, Myers said. I was kind of young and dumb. That kind of comes with the growing pains.Myers has 23 home runs and 21 stolen bases, giving him a chance to become the Padres first 30-30 player.I really felt like this year was the first time Ive really learned how to play the game the right way, Myers said. I wish I could have given Tampa more of that, but its better to learn later than never.Drew Smyly allowed just a solo homer over seven innings of one-hit ball, and Logan Forsythe and Kevin Kiermaier each homered for the Rays.I thought he mixed his pitches well, Myers said. We just didnt play that well, didnt come out with the intensity that we should have early in the game. Thats something we need to fix. I think well do that going forward.Alexei Ramirez hit his fifth homer and Derek Norris walked twice, and those were the only baserunners against Smyly (5-11).Brad Boxberger and Kevin Jepsen completed a three-hitter, with Jepsen allowing a single to Myers and a homer to Yangervis Solarte in the ninth.Forsythe hit his fifth homer in his last 13 games off Luis Perdomo (5-7) to put the Rays up 3-1 in the second.He made some real nice adjustments, but for us offensively we dug too much of a hole, swung up in the zone a lot, Padres manager Andy Green said. We just didnt have very many good at-bats against Smyly.Kiermaier had a three-run drive in a five-run eighth that made it 8-1. He had three hits and two stolen bases.Logan Morrison had an RBI double and Forsythe added a sacrifice fly during the eighth.Perdomo allowed three runs and five hits in 5 2/3 innings. He hit two batters during the first, including Morrison with the bases loaded.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: RHP Tyson Ross (right shoulder inflammation) will throw batting practice Tuesday.MOVING DAYPadres: INF Luis Sardinas was acquired from Seattle for cash considerations or a player to be named and optioned to Triple-A El Paso. Green said Sardinas was obtained with the intent of being one of the names we add to the mix, possibly playing shortstop for us in the future.UP NEXTPadres: RHP Edwin Jackson (3-2), Tuesday nights starter, walked eight and threw 149 pitches in a no-hitter while with Arizona on June 25, 2010 at Tropicana Field.Rays: Rookie LHP Blake Snell (3-5) looks to rebound Tuesday night from an outing Wednesday at Toronto that lasted just 1 2/3 innings. Pau Gasol Jersey . Ryan Garbutt had a goal and two assists as Dallas snapped a six-game losing streak with a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Shareef Abdur-Rahim Jersey . The quest begins with what is supposed to be an easy one, although Germany has traditionally been a stubborn opponent to Canadian teams at international tournaments. https://www.cheapgrizzlies.com/654p-kyle...-grizzlies.html . The Croatian served 21 aces and hit 42 winners against Sijsling, who double-faulted to give Cilic a 4-3 lead in the deciding set. "All the players, they know me and they were really happy to see me and they were really happy that this is over for me," Cilic said. LSU began Southeastern Conference play and in the third game of the season for the Tigers, finally looked like the team projected by some to end the season in the playoff picture.The Tigers (2-1, 1-0 SEC) beat Mississippi State 23-20 in their conference opener last week in Tiger Stadium as Danny Etling stabilized the quarterback position in his first start, Leonard Fournette returned from injury to have a 100-yard rushing game, the defense was dominant at times, and the special teams were solid.No. 18 LSU plays its first SEC road game against Auburn (1-2, 0-1) at 6 p.m. ET Saturday at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, and LSU coach Les Miles is looking for improvement in every phase of the game.It wasnt perfect in any way, Tigers coach Les Miles said of his teams win over the Bulldogs. But we got a real good start in conference play.Etling, a junior transfer from Purdue who earned the start with a solid but unspectacular performance in relief of Brandon Harris in a win over Jacksonville State a week earlier, completed 19 of 30 passes for 215 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions against Mississippi State.He extended plays, ad-libbed and did things he was supposed to do, Miles said. He made plays with his feet.On third-down plays, Etling was 6-of-9 passing for 96 yards and the touchdown.As for Fournette, after resting a sore ankle a week earlier, he carried 28 times for 147 yards and two touchdowns against the Bulldogs, but he fumbled twice and lost one, the first time he had lost a fumble in 414 carries.Miles, who has been known to immediately bench others runners in the wake of even one fumble, is more forgiving with Fournette.Hes one of the most ball-secure runners that Ive ever had, Miles said. Im sure hell continue to be. It will just be a little refresher course there.The defense had six sacks and helped the Tigers to a 23-6 fourth-quarter lead before Fournettes fumble and an onside kick recovery helped the Bulldogs score two touchdowns in a 40-second stretch.Weve got to finish out games, LSU safety Jamal Adams said. Weve got to finish stronger. Weeve got to put a nail in them. Grayson Allen Jersey. If LSU has managed to turn things in the right direction after losing its opener 16-14 at Wisconsin, Auburn is still searching for answers after dropping its second game in three outings, all at home, this time 29-16 to Texas A&M.With only the one win over an overmatched Arkansas State team, coach Gus Malzahns team looks to have issues getting consistent play from its offense, especially at quarterback.Sophomore Sean White has not performed all that badly -- he has completed 63.4 percent of his passes with just one interception in 71 attempts -- but his 45 completions have produced only 510 yards, an average of 170 a game.After starting the game against Texas A&M last week by completing his first six attempts, he bogged down and completed only 12 of his last 21 throws.When he couldnt get the offense moving against the Aggies, Malzahn turned to junior college transfer John Franklin III in the fourth quarter. Franklin had two drives end with Auburn giving up the ball on downs, but he did get his team into the end zone for a late touchdown.We felt like we needed a shot in the arm, so we gave John Franklin a chance and he did a good job moving the football, Malzahn said. I thought he did some good things.He created some things for us when the protection broke down and made a couple of good throws. Hes still learning the offense, but I think he gave us a spark.Still, White will get the start against LSU with Franklin, who has rushed for 117 yards on 13 carries but passed for just 34 yards, waiting on the bench. Senior Jeremy Johnson, who gained back his starting job last year when White was hurt, hasnt played since the opener this season.Malzahn acknowledges his team has to find a way to get more consistent.The inconsistency on offense was the key to the game, he said, looking back on the loss to the Aggies. We have to find a way to get better. We just werent consistent enough to win the game. ' ' '
